You can do it from a kit, at least I did way back when. I assume they're still available. You don't have to change the mainshaft, there is an extension that threads onto the end of it. You'll need to change the side door for the one in the kit, but with a special puller you can do it while it's still on the bike. You can do the whole job in a weekend.
My staggered duals that I had before the mod fit fine after, I did have to elongate the mounting holes a touch. The one downside to the whole thing is that as someone mentioned, it sticks out a bit. Not a problem when riding & feet up but you have to straddle it at a stop.
I say go for it.

I see Kurt still doesn't have his new website up yet but here is his facebook page. You need pipes to work with a kicker here's your guy.

What size pistons do you have?
If stock then you don't need compression releases.
Can a stock ignition work on what?
Do you have electronic ignition?
