I gave $450 for my Fat Cat about 3 years ago on Craigslist. Had the bungs for O2 sensors. Plugged them since my motor doesn't have them.

 

Ya looks like the 09up have 18 and 20mm bungs, probably be fun finding plugs locally but ill get it done

 

When I needed some for some pipes I bought a while back the local Dealership had them in stock.

Another option is just stick some O2 sensors in there.
Whatever works to plug the holes.

 

Talked to D&D tech sounds like I will be putting them up for sale. 09 chassis is 2 inches wider so complete redesign. Said I'll just fab a bracket to move muffler out a inch, he said probably won't work. Damn oh well at least I'll make a good profit turning them.

 

Sorry they didn't work for you.

 

Well that sucks. Ya gonna E Bay them or just put them up for sale.
I saw quite a few sets go in the Touring classified. I finally scored some, they seemed to go pretty fast. Someone might have bought a new bike and have a set from the older bike. Lots of those folks trade bikes often.

Good Luck

I'd try and mount them myself before selling them; sometimes (all too often, actually), who you talk to on the phone doesn't always know as much as they lead you to believe.

 

Yup, what he said....

 

I just welded an 09 rear frame section to an 83 frame, and the horns where the fender mounts is 2 inches wider but where it connects to the main frame was the exact same width...bet you can make it fit.

 

Cool ya maybe i will try. Was thinking about it today, should be out 1 inch from where the old muffler hanger was if they only increased the swingarm by 2 inches? Would be as simple as making a tab bolted to the stock mount with second holes 1 inch outside of stock? Said trans bracket is different but jeesh if 1 bolt lines up it aint going anywhere I wouldnt think. Worst case make a crude tab to reach a couple bolts, will be hidden anyway.
