Question Marting Brothers "Shockwaves" +Rocker C <<>> Answered -- Thanks everyone

I am currently in Iraq and have my 09 Rocker C at my mechanic. I ordered the MB Shockwaves along with alot of other stuff to be done before I return in mid MAY. I know that there are some of you here that have the Shockwaves on their Rockers. My mechanic told me that he got them in and the O2 sensor is in the wrong place. That it is located about 35 degress front and hits the rear head withthe sensor installed and the pipes will nt go on. I was wondering if anyone else has had a problem like this. Maybe I ordered the wrong one? If no one has had this problem could you tell me where you orded them and a part number? It is hard to research like I need to being over here. I would like to have the Shockwaves for my 09 Rocker C w/ the Black ends. Like the ones that DragonSlayer08 has on his bike. Any help with this would be great. Thanks In Advance.

I'm running Martin Bros WTF's on my Nightrain; but I eliminated the O2 sensors. I'm suprised your tech didn't suggest that; besides you're going to need a fuel management system (i.e. PCIII) along with a Dyno in order to tune. Trust me, you won't find any "canned" maps.

Thank you and he did mention it to me but for my Fuel management system I have added the ThunderMax w/ Autotune so I need them. Plus Dragonslayer answered my PM that I sent him. I had to call Martin Brothers and they are sending the one I need for the Rocker. Thanks for the info though.

Yes it is really tough trying to do it all while herre in Iraq. But things are coming around. All items ordered as of today and the bike will be finished by the time I get home in mid May. I am at Anaconda.
