Title: harley controls
Post by Tony from tdot on 01/27/15 at 12:24:31

hello all.....I can get a cheap harley touring front brake master cylinder with controls and clutch with controls. I know they fit 1" bars, but does anyone know if the electronics would work? even with slight modification to the wiring or something?

Thanks

IDK if they are Plug and Play, but, what is the reason for doing it?

Heck....I dunno. You need to check the master cylinder piston size. If it was set up with dual discs or a caliper with multiple pistons....the master cylinder size is most likely not compatible.

Same for the clutch....you need to see if the cable pull length is as long as the Savage. Some bikes use a shorter pull on the cable and it will not disengage the clutch properly if the pull is too short.

Wiring..guaranteed you will have to cut and splice the wiring harnesses to use the stock Savage wiring harness connectors.....even if the switches have the appropriate switch layout. Most often you are better off staying within brand (Suzuki, Kawasaki, etc.). as there wiring is more common between models.

ok thanks... it looks like it would be more of a hassle! better stay with stock.

Yep....if you want to start changing the controls....it can get scary!

Be a long way ahead to just control the urge.
