    In the event I ever have a major fuel injection problems on my 09 Heritage, is it possable to convert it back to a carb & manifold? And if so, how will it effect the computer as far as the rest of the bike is concerned. I.E. Started, lights, speedo, etc? Has anyone here done such a conversion? And what is involved & the rough costs?  Thanks guys in advance for your input!

    Why would ya , if it`s not broke ?
    Injection is an optimal , consistant and more efficient fuel delivery system , i havn`t had a problem in 6 years so far with 2 injected rides or cages too , though have witnessed fella`s fuggin around re jettin carbs in hotel carparks while everyone else is ready to go and eat before the pub shuts ?
    Both would have to have their pros and cons i reckon and i realise that you can pull a carb down on the side of the road , but what problems arrise with the new (is it Delphi?) fuel injection that can be never nailed down or fixed man ?
