Last month I asked my dealer here in Vermont the same question. His quote was 1.2 hours, which he verified with one of the techs.

Buy a chrome voltage regulator.

Did mine on a 09 UC in a couple of hours. Not a hard job at all. Just don't be in a rush and it will go on easy.

Put one on my '09 Ultra. 1 hr including dropping the oil etc. Hardest part was figuring out the right tool to install the adaptor. Ended up using the old 'bolt-and-nut' trick suggested on here. Worked slick.

I just installed the HD Premium Oil Cooler on my '09 Ultra(ized) Road Glide. It took me around 1.5 hours, after I studied the instructions and got the correct tools ready. The most trouble I had was taking to oil filter off. I was amazed how easy the cooler was to install. I didn't even take the Lowers off.
