Also, the reason I had it installed before leaving was I had a them on my dyna which prevented extensive damage on one occasion.

Dealer did mine while I was doing paperwork purchasing the bike. Couldn't have taken them more than 20 minutes or so. There's also a post from someone that installed one and the biggest challenge was the center top bolt.

I did a search.....waste of time. I wish I could find it. I am pretty good at turning a wrench but damn if I can find any location on the side of the frame on either side to locate bolt holes.

My thoughts exactly; however according to the instructions no. As a matter of fact if you look at instructions the right side attachment is right where the rear brake master cylinder is located. Guess if no one can help on here I will check with a tech. HD instructions on some items leave a lot to be desired.
