o2 sensor eliminators

Where is the best place to buy? i recently bought 2010 2into1 exhaust for my 2007 flht my bike is stock no tuners or anything like that the exhaust fits no problem but the o2 sensor locations are way off and different sized bungs i asked local harley guy for some 2010 02 sensors he tells me i can use them they are heated and my bikes wiring wont work for them i have done some reading online says i can run o2 sensor eliminators but all the links to buy them are outdated i have also read i coudl get a 1Meg resistor and wire it to my 02 sensor wiring to act like a o2 sensor eliminators anyone heard of this??

Another option you may want to check into are the Xied's from nightrider.

The available plug-n-play devices for your '07 FLHT are here: http://sales.nightrider.com/2007_c_73.html

I would have gone this route, had I not already bought a tuner before I learned of their existence.

ETA: I just noticed that you said the bungs are the wrong size for your stock o2 sensors. You may need to find some sensors that will fit those bungs in order to make the Xied's work. You can probably contact nightrider and ask them.

bigtony; I plugged my O2 bungs after installing TFI (Dobeck Performance). Adding tuner really helped w/heat redux and the O2 connectors get capped so headed to NAPA & got 18mm plugs, coated w/HT silicone & torqued on. Guess it's another option, if the other method doesn't pan out.

Here's a link for an o2 sensor eliminator: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HARLE...item5ae07b0f90

I don't know if they're sold individually or in pairs from this seller. Seems kinda pricey if they're sold individually.

Also, I found something from Dynojet Research which says:

Quote:

If you want to just use a resistor and not the O2 eliminator plug (which plugs in cleanly and is water proof) use the 1 Meg resistor. It keeps the bike from ever going into close loop thus allowing you to tune the AFR in the normally closed loop area.

With the stock ECM, however, I'd lean toward at least getting the Xied's inline with a pair of o2 sensors that fit your bungs. Just make sure they are the same type as the originals. Sorry, I can't help you there. I've read that the stock o2 sensors are Bosch narrow-band, but I can't confirm that.

You could check with Fuel Moto, as they sell PC's, some of which have the eliminators for specific years that require them. I'm sure they would sell you a pair for <$40.
