Instructions for Ultra Classic / Road King Installation
Installing Boogey Lights Cut N' Click series on an Ultra Classic or Road King is a fairly straight forward process. You will first need to order the standard Cut N' Click engine kit that comes with 78 LED lights and a wiring kit. I will also include in these instructions some additional lights you can add on these bike models which are not included in the standard 78 light kit.
Once you have your lights we can begin!
1. Undo your seat and figure out where you will place your remote control box (if you are installing one). There is generally plenty of room under the seat to place your wires and remote control box.
2. Run your ground wire and your hot fuse wire from the battery to the area where the remote control box will be placed. (This is also the place where all of your wires will be connected from your lights.)
3. Prep your bike by cleaning and promoting. (you can view diagram to see where to clean and promote).
4. Cut your cut n' click lights into the various segments that you will need for the bike. Here is the breakdown.
Right side of bike:
1- 18 light segment (placed on the back of the gas tank with lights shining down).
1- 6 light segment (placed behind the breather with lights shining down).
Left side of bike:
1- 21 light segment (placed on the back of the gas tank with lights shining down).
1- 6 light segment (placed behind the horn cover with lights shinning down).
Under Seat:
1- 9 light segment on bottom of seat pointing straight forward (you will find a flat area here where the lights fit nicely).
*optional* 1-TNT Grenade for "light in hole". This light is placed inside the small hole found on the right side of the bike under the seat. The light is hidden and shines directly forward to illuminate the cavity behind the engine. You have to place this light by dropping it down from the battery and sticking the tape. The light will not fit through the hole if you try to place it from the front. (on 2008 models the "light in the hole" light will be visible. On other models the light sits back far enough to be hidden).
Ground Effects/ SaddleBags / Tour Pack / Handle Bars:
1- 18 light segment (placed on frame on bottom of bike - bend every-other light to 45 degrees to get best effect). On some models you may need to split the 18 light segment in half and add 9 lights to each side of the bike. This has to be done if the 18 segment wont fit on a single side.
*optional* 2- 18 or 24 light segments (placed on bottom of saddlebags with lights shining down) You don't actually place the lights on the saddlebags, but on the chrome bar where the bottom of the bags rest.
*optional* 1- 18 light segment (placed on chrome bar on bottom of tour pack with lights shinning down).
*optional* 2- MEGA Grenades (placed on handle bars shining down).
5. Stick your lights to the appropriate location making sure you have your connectors plugged-in BEFORE sticking.
6. Run all of your leads back to the pocket under the seat, adding zip ties to make things neat and hiding the wires. (Also, make sure you run your wires UNDER versus over other wires and bars when possible. This will help prevent the wires from getting pinched and shorting out down the road).
7. Add your switch to the left side of the bike under the seat on the flat surface facing the front.
8. Connect your wires with the remote control and return your seat. Follow the wiring kit instructions if you need help with this step.
(Installing lights on the front wheel can also be done on these models. You will need to order the MEGA TNT, 5-Light TNT Series or Step Lights for lighting the front wheel. Which ones you order will depend on the color you are installing on your bike. Just call the Boogey Lights office and they will be able to tell you which ones to order. To install these lights you will follow the same prepping instructions as above and simply run the wire leads to the battery for each light. The light itself is placed on the brake caliper. Boogey also offers Steel Braid to cover the black wire lead if your front brake lines are chrome. It looks good. )
Take a look at the Ultra Classic & Road King Image Page to see some final results.
That's a quick run through of how I would do this installation. Let me know if anyone has questions and I can try to answer them. The main thing is to make sure you hide your lights and wires well. Put the lights up high and angle the light to the appropriate area of the bike you wish to illuminate. (you can bend the cut n' click individual lights one time if you need to direct the light - this does come in handy).
Also, remember each bike may be a little different. You may be able to add more lights / or may have to remove some lights, depending on your bike. The instructions above are a general guide.
