2013 SERK Reverse
« on: October 14, 2013, 11:24:49 AM »
Hello,

I'm looking for a reverse kit for my FLHRSE5.
Dealer says it will be difficult to find because of the (new ?) hydraulic clutch, matter of clearance...
I googled around but neither Champion, Mamba nore Baker clearly state about model compatibility.

Have you heard about any successfull install ?

Merci,

Jean-Jacques

Good luck!

Thanks Greg,

Do you confirm having seen that one on a 2013 SERK ?
2013 have width adjustments that does not allow much free space, and prevent the use of kits that claim to be compatible.
That's why I'm so carefull not to become member of 'reselling new' ads...  8)

T Sorry but have NOT seen one installed and I do not endorse the product.  There were several different versions on this company's website. The website I gave you was for the one that is claimed to fit your bike.

JJ, try this link...

lovemycvogirl (Judy) put this on her 2012 SESG with great results.  However, I do understand your 2013 SERK may have a different set of issues as the clutch is a "slipper" and the hydraulic fill/vent is in a different place on your RK.  However, I'm sure the manufacturer has made the adjustments to accommodate the changes on the 2013/newer bikes.  I'm sure Judy would be more than happy to tell you about her experience with the reverse she had installed.

You could also contact Baker. I know last year they were in development of something for the stock 2-1 exhaust. Last I knew, anything after 08 model needed true duals or something similar to clear solenoid. They may have worked something out by now or be close to. It is a great system. Push a button(safety lockout solenoid) then downshift when you're in first and it brings you into reverse creeper gear. To get out upshift back to first.

CHAMPION is a great reverse set up. I have one on my 08 CVO Ultra with hydraulic clutch. I have logged over 38,000 miles on it using it often. Never had a problem.  Just need to remember to take it out of reverse prior to shifting to 1st gear or damage can be done.

Good points, but last one scares me...
Thought there was some security preventing 1st gear and reverse to mix up the box  :oops:

Baker does, not sure about the others. Baker also costs a fair amount more... :(

You may be right. I think that they came up with a safety switch.

*2009-Later Touring Model Exhaust Installation Notes: The Stock exhaust 2 into 1 into 2 design requires the use of the Rear Facing Solenoid Side Covers. See the ‘F6R Side Cover Styles’ images further down the page for solenoid locations.
