I cut my rear frame off behind tank and fit a rear frame section & swingarm from a '12 Glide to my '07 frame. New HogPro RC Component wheels are here...200 rear, and extended bags have arrived along with Bad Dad stretched tank covers...tins headed to paint in 1 more week...bring on the nice weather in March!!!

 

Nice! Be sure to post some pics when all done!

 

I finally installed my +2 sweepers, piece of cake. Taking the radio out was simple, and I used the replacement TBW sensor to get rid of the PITA green connector. No cable changes needed, I re-routed the clutch cable to fit while still sending it through the fairing. Now, what do I do with the +4 clutch cable I bought but don't need?

 

I did the same pretty much except I have a hydraulic clutch and left it alone. Also the CVO doesn't have the green connector so I didn't have to worry about that. I left the radio on and simply tilted the fairing.

 

I thought about tilting the fairing but pulling the radio out took only 5 minutes. I think if you have ham hock hands it might be tricky, but those 4 radio bolts came right out and went right back in. Long handled ball drivers are needed, but it still was a snap.

 

I've had the radio out before. It's a personal preference thing. I prefer to tilt the fairing and open the riser takes about 5 mins but either way is fine.

 

I'll have to try the tilt method next time just to see!

 

Cool, just another option. I just like how easy it is to get at everything.

 

I rode home on my new 2012 Street Glide....
I have just under 120 miles on it....
It was the last 2012 they had....
Oh ya....its a Black one.
Never rode a bike with footboards, cruise, radio befor, lots of things to get used to....

 

Rode it forward three feet so that I could access the stem valve to add 1.5lbs to the read tire.
