Default '08 Road King - Replacing Handlebars Freaked Out Security System

Howdy!

Well, I installed my Wild 1 WO504's on the Road King last night, and also installed the chrome deflector shield kit, and what a transformation!

I worked on it until 2AM, and took my time, triple checked the wiring, etc. This morning, I roll the bike out to try out the new equipment, and it won't start. It's doing it's "security" thing, with the alternate flashing turn signals, etc.

Because I fiddled with electrical stuff, does the system need to be reset in some way?

Thanks!

Sounds like you need to recheck your wiring.

Well, guess all I had to do is ask for help to scare the bike into starting.

Just walked outside, and she started...I'm going to replace the batteries in the FOB's to be on the safe side...

The WO504 bars are downright wicked!

Everything works! Here's some pictures. Next on the list is whitewall tires to get the "retro" look I'm after, and I'll be done.
