I do not want to miss lead you, the ones I tried were from a 2007, harley may have made changes to make them fit, and the new ones will retro fit on older bikes.
Right, I understand. I'm hoping that is the case. I will post up a thread if/when I get them installed.
FROM HD P&A catalog:
NEW VENTERD LOWERS
"Fits '83-later Touring and Trike models (except '98-'09 FLTR). Stock on FLHTCU, FLHTK and FLHTCUTG. '10 FLHXSE and FLHXXX models require the installation of Engine Guard P/N 49184-09 or 49050-09. Will not fit with Mustache Engine Guards"
I seen em on a 2010 FLTRX ...for you grammer folks, I am in da south...
Installation takes maybe 30 minutes or less. A few hand tools and the instructions that come with the lowers and you're all set. Is there something in particular you wanted to know?
I installed the vented lowers from my 02 Road King on my 07 Road Glide last year. I notched the rubber trim on the lowers where it touched the fairing, other than that, it fits fine.
For some, this would not be acceptable...in my case I already had the lowers, and definitely wanted the Harley vented ones. 2010 models weren't out yet.
Mark posted a thread a few weeks ago on changing the fairing brackets on an older RG to those on the new 2010 model. This allows the vebted fairing to fit without any cutting.

I was just looking @ a set on a '07 SE Ultra & the ones on H-D catalog must be different for 2010 as the tabs off '07 cap look as if they they would hit fairing bracket on my '10?

Mark is extremely talented, I wouldn't try this myself, but the thread is informative.
Thanks. I did see this. I was concerned that pre '10 lowers say off an Ultra will not fit with the length of upper mounting caps. Seem too long & would hit fairing brackets?

Yes, I can read. I do have a catalog as well. I also looked @ '07 lowers on a friends ultra & top caps looked a little long to clear fairing brace. I have no problem ordering the ones from catalog for fitment, as they could be universal for prior year ultras & '10 RG since making top caps shorter would not effect ultras. The same may not have been true for prior year ultra fitting '10 RG. If I'm going to spend my $ on used lowers I wanted first hand knowledge of fitment. Kinda funny about stuff like that down here in the Great State Of Texas.
