The pics are edited so only color shows on the parts that are being described. A circle would have worked too.

I'll be doing it on both mine and Venom's truck tonite. The parts are around $6. I had to buy a couple elbow not one. this will make it less likely to kink the boost line to the guage itself.

Bruce,
If you hook up the boost gauge first, just use the lightning instructions. That is the only difference between the HD and L boost bypass.

Help

Hi
I went to do the boost bypass mod on my 03 HD and I was not sure, so I aborted. I see the pink wire/tube, both of them, and I think I see the boost gage line, it appears to be to the right and below the pink and black lines below the solenoid. From there I am lost. I confess to being somewhat of a paranoid mechanic, I don't start what I can't finish. If you have some more guidance to give it would be appreciated. The instructions at RPM are not enough for my limited skills.
Thanks
Randy goss

Does the Harley have a Boost gauge signal line?

I was planning on doing the freebie by-pass and just unplug it.
Anyone else do this with their HD???

Later...
