I use a Heated O2 Sensor, seemed to run smoother but that could just be me but it does work. Part #15716 (It's a universal O2 Sensor). Picked it up at NAPA Auto Parts for $36 and change, but they have gone up since and I don't know the current price. They still should be under $40. Heres the one from american sport bike, its $32.00 Part #16079 http://www.americansportbike.com/shoponline/ccp0-p rodshow/16079.html | ||

I believe it's 12014, but you should double check. | ||

I still have the original O2 sensor. Over 60,000 miles and haven't seen the need in changing it. | ||

How do you know when the sensor needs to be replaced? I copied this from a post on bad web a while back. 02 sensor for buell from GM delco GM part #25162693, and that crosses to an AC-Delco AFS20. i tracked down all the cross ref sensors; GM OEM= 8990469 superseded to 25162693 NTK= 21002 Airtex= 553071 Bosch= 12014 Denso= 234-1001 Walker= 250-21001 SNG= SN1-15 this assumes that the table i found is accurate and the Bosch one is identical as previously posted by others on this site! | ||

Thanks everyone. Does the Bosch 12014 have the proper connection or will I have to solder the old connection onto the new Bosch? I had a heated O2 sensor on my 2001 X1, a Standard Motor Products SG27 for a 90-91 Ford Thunderbird. The Tubers are very cold natured and it help lean the fuell out much faster. The XB's don't have that problem. The reason I'm replacing the O2 sensor is because I bent the top flat pulling the frame, so I'm just going to replace it now instead of after I put the frame back on and find out it's broken, anything having to do with the rear cylinder is a hassle on the XBs. | ||

Cowtown, no work is needed on the connector. Plugs right in like stock. | ||

Replaced the standard one with a NB 4 wire. No more fouled plugs and faster transitions. | ||

with a four wire, do you have to solder new connections or is it plug and play as well? | ||

When I put the heated O2 on my X1 I bought an O2 connector for a 90-91 Thunderbird from the Ford dealer. I cut the sending wire from the old O2 sensor and solder it to the new sending wire, soldered an eye connector to the ground wire and 2 barrel connectors for the hot wires and used the license plate light wires to activate the heating element. |
