Default Decatted header

I have recently installed a decatted head pipe, Rinehart 3 1/2" slip ons, Screaming eagle Stage one air intake, and a power commander V. It was all installed on my 2011 Street Glide with a 96" motor. When I installed the Power Commander, it told me to disconnect the 02 sensors, so I left them on the head pipe but disconnected the wires up under the side cover. Should I remove the o2 sensors and plug the holes or just leave it as is?

I left mine as is. No way to clean up that area because it cant be seen. If you wanna waste money plugging them go right ahead. Even with the auto tune I still left the 12mm sensors in their place on my head pipe and installed the 18mm ones from the kit.

I have the same set up on my 2011 FLHX. Bike runs great. Left the o2 sensors in and unplugged just in case my pc5 stops working on the road I can plug them back in.

I'd leave them in and unplug them as well. No need to try and mess with plugging them at this point. Sounds like a sweet set up though! How she sound now?

I have exactly the same setup on a 2012 Limited and 2012 Tri-Glide. We left the sensors in just in case the PCV quit or in the event we are in a place like Kalifornia and some air official looks at the bike. Without taking the side cover off, there is no way to tell that the sensors are not connected.
