Default 2 wire connector on TBW


This might be a stupid question but What is the small 2 wire connector for?

Heated grip connector. If you look in the end of the rotator you’ll see two pins. The grip connects to that, the connector sits inside the wiring caddy and connects to the left grip if you add heated grips.

Took advantage of Bung King 25% off black Friday deal and ordered a pair of their rear crash bars. Seems they include a few extra bolts and washers, which made me hesitate when I went to install earlier. However another member who recently installed one responded to my question quickly, so I went to work.Took all of 20 min to install. Most of that was figuring out whether to go over or under the muffler bracket top bolt. Decided to go under so the BK bracket was directly against the frame.

Aside from having to loosen and shim out the mounting bracket for my pipe, it was a piece of cake. Literally 4 bolts. I used a stainless spacer I had instead of the part BK included as it was a better fit. I also had to use one of the bolts that came with the S&S instead of the grade 8's that come with the kit, because i needed a hex head instead of the socket cap bolts they include for ease of getting a wrench on it. I'll order a grade 8 from bolt depot just to be safe.




You can see the spacer below on the bottom bolt. No issue with the pipe.


bikes so damn dark its hard to see another black piece!


If not for nothing else, at least I now have some semblance of passenger pegs. LRS doesn't come with them by default.

BTW, none of my vehicles leak a drop. The crap on the deck is the ACF50 I just sprayed the **** out of my Road King with, and forgot to put newspaper under. The condo ****'s are going to get on my *** about it, I guarantee it...

Edit: @Sideburn

I have the same sissy bar.

Take off at least 3 of the bolts from the fender struts, not just the 2 that you fit the sissy bar onto, it is tight as Windycityblues said. The strut will stay secured on with just the 1 bolt closest to the gas tank.

I stubbornly tried to slide it on with only the 2 rear bolts removed and scraped paint off my fender.

It's a great sissy bar btw, error was completely on my end.

Always wanted those, see them all the time, my only concern is the rear pegs clipping a car if I'm lane splitting and going down in moving traffic.

Edit: this was directed at Mchad's bung king pegs.

Thank you very much for the helpful information, both of you. I'll take caution and as guided remove/loosen the first 3 bolts on each side of the fender struts..

I would like to "tune" my bike but here we've got a problem with the ECM on my bike...it's a new one ( the same as the new touring Harley) and we can't "read" it (or "flash" it I don't know how to say in english &#128584...Has someone already got this problem?
Thanks for your answer and sorry for my bad english.
