im planning a ridged chop on my sporty. Can anyone out there give me a step by step on how to remove an efi system off my 08 883 and replace with a carby. What parts would i need, ive heard i may need to change the cam shaft and other bits.

well ive got a couple of friendly grey beards at work who ride harleys. ill keep on it cause im turning my girl into a ridged bobber wwith a springger n im shit a electrics so it makes sense to me to remove everything electrical that is possible

I don't think you need to change cams,you would need the ignition from a carbied evo,don't need o2 sensers, fuel pump,1/2 the wiring loom or ecu ect.It would proberly lose performance & not run as smoothly.Personally i would build it with the injection for realiability,economy & performance.I have seen hot rods run gutted carbies as throttle bodies & nobody notices there injected, looks old school

Making a jig n making it ridged myself

Yea im a boilermaker

Mattyo, you will do it with ease then mate

yea me thinks it should be pretty straight forward just need to chase up an engineer up this way to get a compliance plate. found a nice premade weld on hardtail from bitterend choppers that should be pretty easy to fit

Mattyo, check also the V Twin guys in NY they do great weld on hardtails. I got a great one for my Shovel from then thru Zoom Cycles

Yea I did and the bitterend one one is sourced from vtwin. Bitterend does them in a kit form including the tail with other bits n bobs needed for the job

 hey matt did you end up doing the retro efi change over was it a delphi induction module??

na car blew up so had to put a hold on projects for a while
