I'm just wondering if there is some type of secret code in the catelog that tells you
what parts are needed to install something.

In other words, lets say I want to order parts for a backrest. This requires several parts, but the catelog
doesnt say which parts are needed.

Short of calling the dealer, is there any way to find this out?

 

If you have the big honkin' catalog that the dealer gives away, it will tell in the write up what all is required for installation of a particular part. There is also a table that tells also.

 

i hate them catalogues!

 

You should already have a service manual if you plan on working on your bike. Now you need to order a parts book. Your dealer can get you one. It shows every part on the bike and how many you will need.

When I got my Harley, the dealer gave me a catalog with over 800 pages of mods for all Harleys. When it showed me a new mod, it also listed the parts that went along with it. Example, when I was looking at the mini-apes, it listed the parts that I would need to go along with installing the new handlebars. Maybe your dealer would have the same catalog. Lots of neat stuff in it.
