I and many others on here have the kit on the Uly, with no problems at all. I am guessing the only problem will be finding one. |

Just a little finesse when installing it. Worked great for me. If that don't work, do what we do at GM....Beat it to fit, paint it to match....In other words get a big hammer. |

I have one too. The bottom of the kick stand hit it on the edge of the left outlet, but no biggy. |

I heard the earlier race kits had slight fitment issues. Mine was manufactured in June 06 (which was after Buell was suppose to stop selling them), and I have no fitment issues. Definitely a great mod, if you can find one. Back in August, Daves gave me a list of vendors that might have them. I called every one of them, and only one had it left in stock. Bought their last one. |

I actually know of a dealer that still has one that was sold to a customer almost a year ago and he never came to pick it up. They still won't get rid of it yet though. |

I have one on mine. When I originally mounted it, it fit perfectly. The sidestand began to hit the outlet on the left side as it became looser. After the recall, no problem. It's close, but it doesn't hit. |
