Nah that is reserved for CVO owners. with the regular BO you only get one hot chick, or maybe trade for two ugly ones.

Default CVO Hydraulic Clutch

I am interested in hydraulic clutch conversion using CVO 2014 parts. Sofar I identified these required parts:

Master cylinder and brake line
36700060B - master cylinder assembly (with lever)
37200021 - brake line
11348 - brake line o-ring
41747-82A - brake line banjo bolt
41731-01 - banjo bolt gasket (2 pcs)

Transmission housing
36805-06 - side cover gasket
25700178 - inner side cover
25700179 - outer side cover
37200023 - secondary clutch actuator
4705 - secondary clutch actuator screws (3 pcs)

Clutch
I assume at least a push rod needs to be replaced:
37000111 - rod with release plate (microfiche #19)
37092-06 - rod (microfiche #5)
37000113 - rod end (microfiche #21)

Unfortunately, I am not sure about other clutch parts (pressure plate #13, stopper plate #14 etc... or the whole clutch assembly #12?). Has anybody done this conversion already?

After further digging I realized that CVO is using a different clutch (SE Assist & Slip Clutch, p/n 37000026). The question is if it is possible to use hydraulic actuator with FXSB standard clutch or if the whole clutch has to be replaced. Anybody can confirm?

I don't think this is a conversion most would do. What's your reason for going hydraulic, stock cable clutch to hard to pull? there is always the drop-in variable pressure clutch.

I don't know his reasoning, but I had considered a hydro clutch as it would be easier to route a hard line inside the bars if you are going for a smooth cable less look at the bars.

There are several things I like:
- line routing options/cleaner look of the bars
- self adjusting
- smoothness
- no cable lubrication
- nice technology :-)

Of course there are also disadvantages. The variable pressure clutch is nice too.
