Getting ready to run the wires through my 12" Outlawz and using the Screamin Eagle TBW kit. Couple of questions for those who have replaced the stock TBW with the SE Version:

Did you run the SE TBW first and then the switch wires or run them at the same time ? If so, how did you do it? Best way ?

Planning on replacing the stock wire sheath with some heat shrink to make it tighter. Did you also heat shrink the leads on the SE TBW assembly or pull them as is ?

Can you cut off the small black lead with the blk/white wires to free up some room? I assume these are for the heated grips and won't be using them. Or is there enough clearance in the bars that this isn't a concern?

Just tape up the pins good and tight with some electrical tape before pulling them ?

Any other helpful tips?

I've installed a number of internally wired handlebars but only on older models with the throttle and idle cables, never with the TBW. Got everything dis-assembled and just ready to run the wires through. Thanks for any help...

 

Wow, 161 views and nobody has done this ?

 

I ran TBW separate first in it's on shrink. Harbor Freight is good source for shrink tubing. Here's writeup I did maybe it'll help you.

Got the install done basically following Yaffe instructions. Harbor Freight was jackpot for materials! I used Carbon Steel Welding wire .0123" thin wire but strong won't break! I used .095 weedwacker line to thread welding wire. Used 2 sizes ofshrink tubing 10mm x5M & 8mm x 5M. I used the 10mm shrink for left & right control wire bundles. Used the 8mm shrink for the TBW sensor bundle. I did cutout the infamous green TBW connector eliminating it and soldered and shrink wrapped. Picked up up bottle of Ideal Clear Glide at Lowes for lubing wire bundles and it worked out good.
Harbor Freight item numbers
10mm x 5mm Shrink wrap 98067 $2.99
8mm x 5mm Shirnk warp 98066 $2.99
Welding wire .023 4" spool 42915 $5.99

Here's the TBW green connector wiring elmination got from another forum .

Next is to draw a diagram of the two ends of the green connectors so you know which wires to connect when we cut off the connector. HD has split the wires coming from the sensor into two group with two different color shrink wraps:Black and Yellow. I will now refer to these as Black side wires and yellow side wires. Each side has a white wire, black wire, and red wire. This is what it looks like:
Here is how the wires will hook up.

Blue Wire------(Black Side) White Wire

Brown Wire----(Black Side) Red Wire

Black Wire-----(Black Side) Black Wire

Grey Wire-----(Yellow Side) Black Wire

Red Wire------(Yellow Side) Red Wire

Purple Wire----(Yellow Side) White Wire
