I just bought my boom audio kit today. I think I can get thru the electrical install but not sure about how to remove the tank. Would love to have some info on both if you know or can direct me. I really have enjoyed my 09 street glide!!

Wow, Carl you outdid yourself. Thanks for an excellent writeup and the pictures are very informative when trying to follow the process. Well done.

 

Rick, you have a PM.

 

That's an amazing write up!!

 

I also have an 04 FLHT and am in the process of changing the gauges out for Dakota Digitals gauge package. WHile at the same time I want to put a stereo in since it has never had one. Any info on the gas tank removal and oil temp sensor along with audio recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

 

Once again Pingman, great mod and post..

 

The best thing I ever bought for my bike was the HD Service Manual. I'm not a tech of any kind, but I can read and follow directions pretty well. Unless you already know torque specs; how to disassemble and, more importantly, reassemble correctly, harnesses, connectors, etc.; and the many other aspects of working on your bike, a service manual is essential.

Audio recommendations are pretty simple: check biketronics.com and hawg-wired.com for interface modules and installation kits for using almost any automotive stereo in your FLHT and have handlebar controls of the stereo.

Gas tank removal is pretty simple but a pita due to the crossover gas line that must be disconnected. The service manual has a procedure to minimize gas spillage. Many buy the Herko quick disconnect fuel line and install it to minimize the issues with the crossover line for future gas tank removals.

[quote=Harleypingman;5795654](Lengthy post due to the installation of this kit on my '04 Electra Glide. HD fitment information says this kit is for '07 and newer fairing models, but is very easily adapted for '06 fairing models, and only slightly more difficult on my '04. Don't know if it can be modified to work on older bikes than '04.)

Do you still have the pictures that were included with the original post? Maybe due to the age of the post the pictures are no longer available.
Do you think it would be that much different installing the CB on a 2010 SG FLHX? I would lie to do it and make it look as "factory" as possible.

Thanks. I would have PM you but I have not found that option in the forum yet.

 

[quote=RescueMedic1;6981537]I reorganized my pictures in photobucket. When the pictures were moved within photobucket, the links were changed.

The thread has been edited to add back in the pictures.

As I mentioned in the original thread, installation of the BAMI kit will be very easy on a 2010 model. The CB module just sits on top of the HK and plugs into the non-Ultra overlay harness.

You can go to HD's website and download pdf versions of the installation instructions for the BAMI kit and CB.

Good luck with your project.

Carl
