    IIRC, the left side had the issue with not having a "hazard" switch on it. Dont know for certain, but when i purchased my new M/C for 'Sunshine, i asked Mike Lalonde ( THE dude at MikesXS) if it would fit. As others have stated, he seems to have a distaste for the 1100, but oh well.... he said they didnt have the hazard switch on the bottom, so the wiring will be a bit different. If 'Bobber' and others have figured it out, we can all 'patiently' wait for them to post photos and detailed instructions on how it works!!
    I know that my controls will need to be replaced soon (cosmetic reasons only.....for now) and i myself would like to know how to do it also!!!! My $.02
    I'll try and get it tackled here asap and take some photos. I'll post it to my site of course and maybe make a mini-tech thread for those interested, although I'm sure someone here has done it before. I've been moving into my new harbor freight garage and haven't gotten much done. I'm starting to miss the bikes, lol.

        Sure did bud. I was pretty sure I e-mailed you back as well. Did you not recieve that?
        We'll deffinitely have to get together. I should have my bobber about 3/4 done here soon and my SF doesn't need a whole lot. I think I throw the carbs on, install my new battery, do some brake work, and put new rubber on those two round things at each end of the bike and it should be good... OH YEAH! PETCOCKS! Gotta rebuild 'em, almost forgot lol. But yeah, I know where you're at. Sounds like a ell-of-a plan to me

          nah...my work email is super sensitive....working for the railroad, anytime we get emails from outside the company, they sit in quarantine for like a month.....sux. but that does sound do-able.
