Anyone know how difficult is to switch from a 2018 style handle bars controls to a 2019 and up? (Throttle, emergency stop, lights, warmers, reverse...)
I am looking to do that swap but if someone told me it is very complicated because of different wiring modifications, etc, I might forgot the idea.
I can probably find all that stuff at a local wrecking yard.
Thank you!

19 got the start button/ reverse upgrade19 is same as 17 and 18
hated it on my wife’s sled now on my 22 I’m getting used to it and it’s a nice upgrade.
I’d be interested in the answer to your question as I still have my 17 and an 18 MTX
Hopefully someone has done it

The throttle is also different (a bit smaller) on the 2019+. I found on my 2018 that I used to drive with the hands not completely closed around the handle bars to be comfortable with the throttle. And that make my hand getting cold more easily.
My 2019 X-TX LE does not have the "start button" on the handle bar controls...that showed up in 2020

The controls would be nice for sure, but the new brake /lever is what I currently looking at switching over. I can't get over how much nicer it is on the 2020+
