He's a new guy to the forum, looking for some info on the conversion process. He responded to me in another thread, and I think he found this thread from my signature.

It's fun reminiscing in this old thread. I still have the bike (could never bring myself to sell it) and it's fun to see how it's continued to evolve since the RG conversion was completed.

I didn't expect to get so much interest in the conversion, but even 4 years later, I still get a few emails/PMs each month asking about it.

The shark tank is getting quite full these days!

Wasn't looking to beat thread up, just found info to be very helpful. I am looking to do a serious transformation to 2 bikes at once and needed this info, it was very helpful.

Hey Murphy - I would be happy to send it to you. I just need an email address.

Since you're post count is low, you may not be able to PM me. Its up to you if you want to post it on the forum in the thread. It would be pretty permanent since you can only edit posts for a short period of time after posting.


Also, for those looking for pictures, they're still hosted on Photobucket. If you download an add on for your browser called "Photobucket Embedded Image Fix" the picture will show up for you. For now at least...!

Redbeard,

Amazing, amazing build. Can you shoot me an email with the parts list please. berx25@msn.com

I am exploring the possibility of converting my 2013 SG to a RG. Would appreciate it very much.

Thanks,

Michael

Shoot me a PM with your email, and the list is yours. I can't post the Excel spreadsheet on the forum.

Btw, I have all the costs in the spreadsheet from Lake Shore and New Castle. Though for you, you get hit with sales tax from New Castle.

Feel free to fire away with questions/comments. For those looking for a parts list, I put together a comprehensive list using the parts book for a 2012 FLTRXSE. I also checked it against the list that others have used here as well.

Since the CVO SG has some different options like ABS, there are some subtle differences. In 2010, the fairing bracket changed as well to accommodate the same lower fairings on all touring bikes.

Enough of the babbling...here are some pictures!

The parts started to pile up pretty fast; even more showed up after this picture was taken:


Couple last pictures of the CVO SG:






do you have a completed parts list
