So I was only down for 2 days.

It snapped the threaded part off the horizontal rod that holds the signals. They don't sell that part separately. $60 tuition to Harley University to learn that lesson. But that's not the embarassing part. I got another kit just to get the bar, fixed it up, c-a-r-e-f-u-l-l-y test rode it -- everything's fine. Next morning, mounting up to go to work; kick the signal off again. My tuition is now $120. But that's not the embarassing part... yup, did it a third time. Any time I go near the parts counter at the dealer the guys ask if I need a new laydown kit.
