My question, and it's probebly a little to early to ask ,but what wheel's will this fit and not fit? here is harley's discription right out of the book....
Original Equipment and Harley-Davidson® accessory wheels. Will not fit with 80-Spoke Laced Wheel P/N 42954-04, Polished Spun Aluminum Disc Wheel P/N 43760-03 or Slotted Six Spoke Wheel P/N 43932-02 (chrome) or 43933-02 (black)
I'd love to add this to my Street Glide but I'm running after market wheels (16" Black Bike Cycle Custom wheels) Is there any way other then purchasing this and attempting to bolt in on to find out if they will work? Good question, I hope I hear a good answer, thx, Rich A

RE: Isolated Drive System insall
Why is this so intriguing?
Is there some problem that was born with the 2007 models that I have not expereinced?Call me stupid, but it seems like a "fix" for something that wasn't broken and not only are they making $$$ on the "conversion kit", it's a perpetual revenue stream, as the isolators will need regular replacement. I can't wait to see how much they charge to replace them, while the wheel is off for a tire. I bet it's an extra hour labor to install a bag of rubber widgets that are manufactured for $1/set and sell for $59.95....
What am I missing?

RE: Isolated Drive System insall
I dont have any issues with vibration, noises, etc and can run around all day long in 5th at 50 mph, but only after modifying the engine. Problem withthe 07's is the torque curve, running lean to meet EPA requirements and also the difference in the gear ratios that popped up in 07. This is like installing a second compensator sprocket to take some of the lash outta the system.
I wonder how much torque/Hp it will withstand before trying to self destruct? I am definitely not going to add one, but if you want to lug a stock engine around town all day, this might be a fix. Better yet, keep the rpms up and you wont need it or build the engine, and spend the money for a good set of cams
