Default RSD Tracker Install

Sorry posted this in the wrong thread earlier, (I have a sportster)

What tools are needed? I have a basic set, but I know I'll need some extensions and I heard someone mention something about a "wobble bit" to get to the front without hitting the front fender.

Any do this install and can help me with a list of tools needed? besides Beer (ive got that.)

Thanks.

The only thing I could think of that you would need a wobble is for the Riser bolts, all in all it's real easy.

Wrenches, ratchet/sockets and alan wrenches... I'm almost positive I never needed torxs for my LSR last week. If you don't have them yet though you will need them. That's pretty much everything for your bike, period.

Are you talking about exhaust pipes? If so, all you need are 1/2" socket (i think), 3/8" drive ratchet, and 6" extension. No wobble bit necessary.

Yeah for the 2 into 1 exhaust. I was at the dealer and when I pointed at the forward most bolt right in line with the fender if your looking directly at the bike, he said wobble bit. But from what you all said I'll be fine with out then I hope?

It just looks like a tight spot and is the only point of my concern, well that and torqueing everything down properly.

Its lbs per inch for the exhaust right?

I had to use a swivel attachment on my extension for that one front nut. I torqued mine to 10ft/lbs, the lowest setting on my torque wrench, that is equal to 120in/lbs, the high end on the spec. You don't want to crank down on these nuts too tight. On the advise of someone at work, who I trust, I torqued them initially, then took a good test ride and re-torqued them when hot (they did loosen a bit), then re-torqued after a few days, the idea being to let everything heat up and cool down a few times.
