Ok well heres my question then the 3 hole one is that a direct bolt on replacement? Are these bolt acces from the rear without removing the fender or the tire?

 

yes,I have beefy arms, (260lbs) and I could get up in there with a 1/4" socket set.

 

Could we get a part number for this? I have looked around the Drag Specialties website and can't seem to find the kit.

Thanks

 

What do you guys think about this one? 19 bucks...Anyone buy this one? Is it worth the 19 bucks...

NEONNIGHT34609already provided it a few posts up. It's 7807-0114 (M&M Cycles sells Drag Specialties parts at a discount)

I've got 11" shocks and I was still able to do it, but it took a littlepatience. I couldn't fit a ratchet in there, so I used a wrench, 1/4 turn at a time.

I'm sure it will work fine. I just don't like them as much. The plate angles a bit which looks a little better. But it doesn't lay all the way down on the fender, AND it doesn't curve from side to side to follow the fender. So it doesn't blend much better than the stock mount.

yeah thats nice but.. It just don't flow as well, I got mine from Zanottis. 42.00

 

I took the stock affair,removed and discarded the upright piece and then squeezed the lower bracket in a vice until it was almost compoletely squeezed together, but not quite. I left maybe a 3 or 5 degree angle. You have to put the bolts int here first obviously before you squeeze it but there after you can bolt the lower portion of the bracket back on the fender (same holes, bolts, etectera) and get just about the same effect as the fancy-schmancy $60 brackets. Hey, I'm a Piney - I can't help myself.

 

Whoops, I thought that was the number for the rack. My bad. Thanks again.

 

Disconect the rear shocks and jack the bike up... plenty of room. Trotter

 

Thanks!

Think I'll go with the drag specialties one, I see it for like $70.
