$80 for a temp sensor??

[cb750]

Really? I'm certain mine is bad, is there somewhere other than ASB that has them cheaper?

Is there a reason I can't use this one?

Going on the assumption this is the correct part number. Harley-Davidson SENSOR, HEAD TEMPERATURE P0278.4A8A - $38

The xb one was 80 at the cheapest place I found when I had to replace mine.
I can check the parts book when I get home though.

Is the thread on that bosh sensor 3/8 x 16 ? I think thats what the buell sensor is IIRC

What year bike is this for?

 

[wolfo68]

that one has the 03-06 connector, not sure if it changed after that.
the only thing that changed about the unit is the connector otherwise I know even the tubers use the same one, but they kept "upgrading" the sensor and raising the price on it. I know it was covered in another thread that everytime the guy asked he was told it was out of stock until he got the part number for the one that's 80

That's for an 08 xb12ss. $38 for one.

awesome, yea that sounds like the one. and it should come with both connectors since it has the update on it.

Looks like I'll have to snag one for myself.


the new part number doesn't register with my local dealerships system, the old one does but it costs 47, going to order one from surdyke

Thanks d adams. My bike is an 08, so that'll be great.

The bosch one I linked to, probably isn't 3/8-16 since the listing says it fits a buttload of Volkswagens.
