Macy (my wife) and I went out for a ride last weekend, her on the S3 and me on the S2. When we got home the tailight lens on the S3 was missing. I used the part number from my parts book to try to order a new one and got this response. "Part #68074-94Y is obsolete and no longer available from H/D; it supercedes to Y0401.2QQ which is more expensive. NOTE: part # Y0401.2QQ is $42.80+ SHIP CHARGE"
Can anyone confirm this for me?

When I was looking for one, I was told you had to buy the whole taillight assembly, not the lens separately.

it is the whole assy now, that number (y0401.2qq) is accurate, buell lists that part at 53.50 so grab it at 42 while you have the chance!!

I have a used one from my 98s3 if anyone is interested. I have removed the entire tail section so all parts would be available for the light.

Call GAINESVILL HARLEY DAVIDSON parts dept.

They JUST got me one ordered in... it took about 2 months.... I think the original distributor dropped them or something and HD had to find a new distributor.

Micah- I am thinking that the 98 and 99 taillights should be the same so I would be most interested in buying the lens from you.

Thanks for the pic. If I'd realized that there was just a captive nut back there I would have saved myself from losing a screw (which I gotta admit is better than losing the entire lens). I know what I need to do to make it right by spring, now.

That lens is shared with one or two Moto Guzzis as well, in case you happen to have a Guzzi dealer near by.
