I have a set of V&H Longshots from a 1600 that I want to put on my 2009 1700. Looking for info on what size 02 sensor bungs (mm size) I need and where to get them so I can weld them onto the V&H pipes.

Someone else may post an answer sooner though.

Thanks davej.

Originally posted by davej View PostAlso make sure you weld them in the correct location so that the wires are long enough to plug in without making an extension.
The rear would have had to be located on the top of the header pipe to plug in comfortably. I didn't like the look so I drilled the pipe near the bottom at a downward angle towards the bottom of the engine so it didn't stick out like a sore thumb. I already extended the wires on the rear sensor 4" to be able to reach the plug. This way, the sensor is not visible unless you intentionally look for it.
Curious though, should I use some type of sealant on the threads when I put the sensors in for good?

Got the bungs welded on and getting ready to mount the Longshots on but it will have to wait until I get back from vacation in 2 weeks. I have been thinking about a way to rubber mount the exhaust to the rear support to help reduce vibration to the frame. Has anyone else done this? if so, how you did it? Pros/cons with this approach?

I posted a question just now about a related topic. If you have a fuel injected roadstar and you put on pipes that don't have oxygen sensors and you just bought 02 simulators for the oxygen sensors would that be an issue with the computer running correctly on the bike?is the computer needing the O2 sensor information for anything other than emissions compliance? Will it not run correctly if you do not have that connection between the pipes and the computer?LET'S RIDE

Just got done talking to a motorcycle racer a guy with low 8 second sport bikes and he has a road liner He's going to make ungodly fast. He told me on these bikes the computer doesn't get controlled per se by the oxygen sensor so that disconnecting the O2 sensor would not harm the engine because the O2 sensor information is not used to change parameters to the tune. So with that in mind why would we want to go to the trouble of welding in bungs on exhaust???LET'S RIDE
