S&S sells a cable for the XL that works with the E or G. Not sure how that will play out with a Buell. May work with an S2 throttle assembly the S1/M2/S3 may be a different story.

I know others have made the same switch, hopefully they will chime in.

Buells after the S2 use metric controls like Kawasaki and others.
Buells S2 and earlier use Harley-Davidson controls.
Unless someone here who has performed the conversion responds, try metric to S&S.

They're not Buell specific. Used on all Evo big twins and Sportsters converting from CV to S&S.
