Another one of our customers sent us this link. Glad we could help. Video and bike look great! FYI we also have plug and play front LED lights for this model (K68497) as well as other items. We have also developed a wiring harness that will provide power to the rear simply by plugging in a connector and running wires to the rear. You can then use those to power our taillights and additional items such as the license frame. Makes our lights plug and play.
I'll for sure be ordering the front turn signals in the spring! Thanks for the comment.
I can’t seem to order the wiring harness delivered to Australia please advise
@@zipcodetechnology4241 We don't ship directly to Australia. Our distributor is Rollies Speed Shop
@@kodlinusa6155 your supplier Rollies doesn’t seem have the wiring harness either for the Elypse rear turn signals for sportster s
@@zipcodetechnology4241 Rollies Speed Shop is our distributor in Australia and we have notified them of this new product. Hopefully it will be available soon. International orders can be made directly with Kodlin USA. Shipping gets expensive when ordering direct, so we always suggest using a distributor when possible. In the USA most shops have accounts with HardDrive/WPS or Drag Specialties.
I purchased the black and gold HD Sportster S great bike and I’m planning on doing the same mods , thanks for the info , keep bringing it 👌🏾
Good info and I like your rear light setup. Might do the same on mine.
Sick bike, bro! I love it. I’m gonna subscribe. Please post more of it.
Great video very helpful thanks from the UK 😃
I subscribed, hope you continue making content with the sporter s
i just got it ... and its a beast...
If you’ve already shopped with kodlin, Ide also recommend they’re 1inch suspension lift. Gives a little more corner clearance, and a sportier stance
Yeah I’ve seen that, I’ll take a look. Thanks
Nice, Bro! Sounds great!
Beautiful bike my friend
great idea with the tail light addition. My girl is always telling me that she could never see my light in the daytime the tbr light Are just not bright enough.
Planning on getting the 2023 sportster s for my1st bike was up with the Rebel let’s see any mods I have one as well 22
Keep the revs low? Hell nah! 😂 I have the same set up and I love it hopefully we can get more stuff for this bike soon in the market 👍🏼
Wow nice
Appreciate your voice! like your content!
More to come soon! Rode for a few hours yesterday… 6 degrees C! I am excited to get back out.

Hi. Looks great. I have the TBR fender eliminator. My question is that when you turn the bike off does or did the red LEDs on the rear stay alit for a short period after the bike is off then turn off? Also I am having issues since a service with headlight now not working. The Daylight light works but I have no highbeam or lowbeam at night. Worked fine for 6mths after Insta the tailtidy so that wouldn’t be the issue. The bar across the middle of the light is illuminated but I don’t know if that bar is supposed to change brightness or there are other LEDs internally that may have blown.
Sorry I missed this comment. Yes, the tail light stays on for a bit before turning off. Second, the headlight issue sounds like its unrelated. I’d take it to Harley for warranty service. Assuming you wired in the fender eliminator using the connection for the old tail light.
Gotta say this bike just jumped on my radar. How is the rear travel? Did the 1 inch help? Not too rough?
You can’t just hit any pothole or manhole cover you see. If the bump is big it hurts a bit. There are mods to increase the suspension travel but I haven’t had too many issues. No different than driving a sports car.
Dr. Fear. Awesome configuration!!!! Hoping you can share a wiring diagram for the rear lighting setup?
Good idea for a winter video. I think yesterday was the last riding day for me this year unfortunately.
@@DrFearCo Awesome!!! Can you get it up quick cause I don't want to work on it when it's too cold... 😀 Much Appreciated!!!
Send the wiring diagram?
please dive more into detail in regards to wiring; planning on doing the same to my Sportster S
Just buy the specialized wiring harness kodlin USA makes. I’ll see what I can do video wise as well.
I want to trade my rebel for this bike 😅.. love your videos
i have the same exact Mineral Green love my bike and i get stopped as well at gas stations and i dont have any mods yet but TBR exhaust is on back order
can you dive into detail for me i would love to add this to my bike
@@R1MDUDE Awesome! Detail on the exhaust install?
Woww...i love it....
Can't you just use " posi-tap" wire connectors to tap off the factory wiring to the blinkers when adding the extra blinkers?
What I should have done is ordered a new jst connector and wired everything up together so it could plug into the factory harness. At the time I couldn’t find the connector but now I know where to get them.
Posi tap might have worked but the wires are very thin. I think the best way to do it is what I mentioned above.
Hi, beatiful machine. Can i use this exhaust on my two seater sportster s. Does the passengers leg burn
I’ve burned my leg pretty badly on the exhaust by sitting on a hot bike with shorts on. I imagine it would be pretty easy for a passenger to burn themselves. Maybe a wrap?
Does that rare light gave you Warning on the screen, Bcoz I changed mine but it showing warning it's annoying
I don’t have any issues with the light mods. Perhaps a software update is necessary? The app will tell you if your bike needs an update.
Did the check engine light /abs light come on when you switch the exhaust? Let me know big bro
No, they warned me it might but then would go away. There was no CEL related to the exhaust.
hows the heat distribution with the new exhaust? still get super hot by your leg or?
I wrapped the exhaust as I burned myself a couple times sitting on it with shorts. If you ride with jeans it’s fine.
NICE !!! ( I wanted to buy this bike when it came out, but the lack of suspension in the back (like 3") I suck with another bike, and it needs Dual rotor up front ) Look Wise 11/10
I agree about the rear suspension. Getting my weight dialed in made it better but it’s still a bit rough. I’m willing to deal with that. As for the dual rotor, I disagree. Looks wise, whatever, I think dual rotors would look better. But the 4 pot brembo and the diameter of the disk make this bike stop plenty quickly. Absolutely no issues with the brakes. Stops just as fast if not faster than my R NineT with dual brembos. I think people focusing on the dual brakes automatically think 2 is better than one which is not always the case. If they had dual brakes it would be 2 2 pot lower quality brembos on smaller diameter disks, 6 and 1/2 dozen.
I think they’ll probably update it to dual brakes one day since everyone complains about it, but none of those people have ridden the bike.
@@DrFearCo Dual rotors would also mean extra unsprung weight on the front end which would negatively affect handling dynamics. Harley isn't adverse to using them when necessary, but if you notice it's almost always on their much heavier applications - bikes that generate much more heat in stopping an equivalent distance, because that's where duals shine: in heat dissipation to alleviate potential fade, not extra stopping power.
I think your bike looks great, keep up the good work.
I JUST bought a 22' Sportster S in Sand White Pearl (like, I've had it for less than 2 weeks). I haven't found any reviews from anyone who's actually ridden the bike that think the brakes are lacking in any way on these bikes. I'm 6'2", 225 lbs. and I still think there's PLENTY of brake on this bike. I haven't taken it past 70mph yet, as the bike has less than 60 miles on it so I'm still breaking it in, but even from highway speeds, there's enough braking there to lift the rear wheel if you turned all the electronannies off. Maybe in a racing environment it might not be able to handle the repeated braking, but I don't think anyone is buying this bike to race with.
@@float6969 Maybe drag racing? Time will tell. I am 6'2" ~205. So my experience will probably be similar to yours.
What is the name of the factory 6 pin connector on the rh1250s
According to kodlin it is a JST 6P
Was trying to find a y split
Ended up finding JST 6 pin connectors and making my own y split and wired in a strobe from custom dynamics also
@@zipcodetechnology4241 I think its some kind of JST connector. I couldn’t find one though.
Did you wrap over the heat shield or remove it?
I wrapped over the whole thing. It looks pretty clean even without removing the heat shield. My recommendation is to use LOTS of plastic zip ties while putting it on and then a few strategic steel ones at the end.
I want this bike so bad
does this exahust shoot a backpressure flame?
No flames
Did you get any fault codes with the kodlin lights?
No, I have gotten the occasional fault code prior to the last software update but drove for like 2000km with the lights before any of those codes came up. And none of the codes were related to the lights.
My TBR fender is giving me
Code B216615C
Code means Running lamp circuit shorted to voltage/open
@@zipcodetechnology4241 same here! Does your red taillight also stay alit after you turn the bike off with like residual power then disappear.
@@zipcodetechnology4241also. Seen as you too are from Australia have you had issues with the Software update on infotainment not showing new software version even though Harley dealer says it has been updated and it continues to have issues with the things the software is suppose to fix?
@@Charm21ish I’m running the latest software. No issues what version are you on don’t be fooled by the first few numbers of the software it actually goes of the last 8 digits which is the date latest one ends with 102022 which is oct 2022
I'm really tryin hard to love these new sportsers but just can't do it yet. I love the specs on this bike, love the look but the sound is a huge miss for me. Doesn't sound mean or powerful, no matter what you do. Your bike isn't loud at all IMO and I think your cam captured the sound pretty well. Its a slick lookin rig though and could probably leave my XR1200 in the dust but my hopped up evo sounds insane at any rpm. Now if Harley makes a XR1250 with the pan am's 150 hp engine, i might not care about the sound lol
Yeah… it sounds a bit like an L twin Ducati maybe? It definitely doesn’t sound like a Harley and that’s probably the worst part for a lot of people. I think the mechanical chatter goes away a bit when you remove the exhaust baffle (like I did in my recent video) but it’s still not the same.
I will tell you that this pulls harder than a pan am. 150HP would probably mean just a higher top speed.
@@DrFearCo I check out every exhaust vid i can find on the new sportys but so far, nothin even close to acceptable. shame they are a very sharp lookin bike with lots of performance.
I love that color, but I would have liked to seen her out in the sun.
When I get one, I want mini apes and mod controls for starters. I’ll see what Vance and Hines has for pipes.
@@bothetinman772 I’ll try to get something filmed this weekend! Got some updates.
That seems overly complex wiring work for a light job...
Kodlin now sells a special wiring harness inspired by this mod.
Nice bike. Please don’t touch anymore of the wiring. If I see it’s molested like that I usually pass. It’s a good way to devalue the bike and a great way to start wiring issues. Solder only! And if you can’t then don’t mess with wires!
Solder is wrong. Butt connectors are the way to go. Industry standard. Butt connectors are more vibration resistant. I could re-pin the stock connector in a couple of hours and return to stock.
Earplugs! Hahaha!
Sounds like a sewing machine!
Get some straight pipes, so cars can hear you!
...I have a full system on this bike... it's loud.
Have you removed the govner yet???
