Jim, your at least going to remove the seat post after you relocate the coil, aren't you? I like how it opens up the space between the oil tank and rear cylinder.

Oh yeah man..the seat post is already out of there.. it completely opens up that rear cylinder and looks awesome. Hopefully i'll notice some difference in temperatures and get some better air flow too

Will have to wait for some warmer days to test that out. Looks Like you neck of the woods is in for some nasty weather in the next few days. I am in Palm Springs for a couple days before leaving the states again for 2-3 months. Wish I had my bike down here.

What do you guys mean when you say you removed the seat post?

look on the side of your bike where the coil is..that gloss black metal bracket that holds the coil up..that's its only purpose, to hold the coil up.. so if you relocate the coil, you can remove that bracket, which is "the seat post"

I'm toying with the idea of ordering triple play conversion from custom dynamics, was wondering if anyone have had experience with them

I can't comment on the triple play but I also have their led turn signals and have no problems with them. Great quality and their customer service is very friendly and happy to answer any questions.

Does anybody who owns a 2012 lo have the stock bars for sale? Toying with the idea of changing mine to them. They feel better than mine. Thanks

I did the same swap a several months ago and like the difference. It is not a huge difference but enough to make me comfortable riding. I was able to use all mt stock cable but had to replace the upper ABS brake line. At the time I could not find any after market ABS lines so I just bought the HD upper line for the 2012 Fatboy Lo. Had to have the ABS reset at the dealer after the install. The 2012 bar can be had for less the $125 new.
