I have looked all over and cannot find any info. I have the 1014 FLHTK. It has the System info display that show current air temp, Oil Pressure and EITMS state. Is there anyway to get the engine temp displayed there as well? It seems that with all of the sensors these days you could get a readout displayed.

No, there is neither an oil or engine temp gauge on the Rushmore Boom system.

Along with the other gauges mentioned, here's another one from Parts4PowerToys

The only way I can look at engine temp (for testing purposes) is to use my V&H Fuelpak FP3... I fire up the smartphone app and can monitor intake temp or engine (cyl head) temperature.

Of course this doesn't help you unless your smartphone is mounted where you can see it...

Probably the same reason they don't add lots of things at the factory. Lack of demand and the fact that they can sell it aftermarket.

Could also be the less informed would grab their chest and fall over backwards if they could actually see cylinder head temps. Sometimes info causes way more problems than it might solve. Look at what happens when someone mentions oil.:wink
