1.Zanottis
ORIGINAL: sifularson
2.Pressed bearing myself , very easy , no different than any other bearing , I used a big socket just make sure you support the back of the sprocket
3.make sure ya have a 36mm socket andwrench or adjustable that big , torque wrench , bike lift
4.diffucultly -3
5. Took me 2 and a half hours but I mounted a new back tire
Go for it you will be happy
Finally, some good, solid info, WITH PICS!!!! I like that. Thank you!
A fewquestions. Please reply when you have time away from riding . . .
1. Where did you buy the IDS?
2. Did they press the bearing in for you?
3. Looks like you did the job yourself with help. I'm a retired Cat mechinic and I do have a HD service manual. Were there any surprises doing the job?
4. On a scale of 1-10 difficulty. Where would you put it?
5. How long did it take you?
My bike has not developed the clatter that many are talking about. I may just do the IDS anyway. Seems like HD should have installed it on my 07 anyway. Since they didn't, I will.
Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the pics and your post. I bought mine in stock at Battlefield HD (Gettysburg Pa) for 198.00 + tax + 18.00 to press the bearing. They had it in stock and matched Zanottis who didn't have it when I called. Anyway...I'm installing in the AM & hope to post after a great weekend of riding !

But some folks will argue till they're blue in the face that that's too low, you're lugging the engine, the sky is falling, the world will end, yadda yadda yadda...
