Greetings from Sunny Florida!...I need help...
Hey guys/gals. I'm new here obviously. I just bought a 2002 Super Glide bobbed and bored. Not new to motorcycles but new to Harleys. I used to ride a Yamaha Virago for a while but just got my Harley and love it.
Anywho, I have a problem as well. The bike was a homemade jockey suicide shifter on it and I would like to return it to stock shifting. The guy who owned it was an Expert Harley Tech and the bike is well maintained and he gave me most of the original parts. However Im missing everything between the linkage and the shift lever. i went to Harley and ordered the parts and Im 99% they are not the correct parts. Does anyone have a similar model that could show me a pic of their shifter so i can get an idea of what its supposed to be? I'd appreciate any help with this, because I would really like to ride and where I live is just too busy to mess with a jockey and 18" apes!

Found a photo of an '02 with forward controls. Reference them to help you decipher your issue:
I also see that your clutch cable appears to go to the top of your shift lever. That will need to go back to the handle bars, so do not forget to purchase all of that equipment as well.

he's a tech for sure, he is moving though. He works/worked at the HD dealership about an hour from here. When I went to buy parts they parts guy knew him at the local Tampa shop. Im wondering if I lost one of the parts in transport. Im heading to the dealership tomorrow and see what I they can do to help.
I realized they didnt sell me the wrong parts. I asked for 2002 Super Glide shifter parts and thats what I got. Stock replacements. That was my fault.
EDIT:
does harley sell black forward controls? I keep searching on google but am getting very little results.
