I just bought a 2001 Fatboy I'm not sure that I actually want to change the throttle cables myself what is the estimated cost I know it varies of having somebody do it
Prolly a couple hundred if you took it to a dealer. Prob an hours work at Indy so $100. Buy a manual for your bike and DIY, youll save $$ and next time you gotta adjust the cables youll know how. You might think theyll do a better job but trust me those monkeys at the shops wont.
