Wheeldock EZup center stand
Just received my center stand. It does not fit 09 Ultra Glide without modification. The bracket under the transmission must be drilled or cut in order for the EZ stands screw and bolt to align. After that slight modification it works as described. I have no complaints. It took about 1 hour to install.

Anyone else have this issue on an '09 Touring Model???? With my luck lately, I don't want any more surprises when installing aftermarket items....

What was the part number for the stand you installed?

I received the "09 Center Stand". Also spoke with rep at Wheeldock. They informed me that they have not done much with the 09. He suggested that I use a rubber mallet to knock the brace forward.
On a scale of 1 to 5, I would describe the difficulty as being a "1". This is a product that I would highly recommend.

So if you install using a rubber mallet you don't need to drill out?

STOP DRILLING! I installed one last night and the only trick needed was to spread the stand open a bit and stuff a rag into the gap. Once you do this everything slides smoothly into place. Without this, the foot pad hits the exhaust crossover pipe during the initial phase of installation.
When the foot pad is out of the way it drops in smoothly. If you drilled you probably have the stand in the wrong place. Everyone with an '09 needs to know this. I'm really impressed with the stand but you need to know this trick to install it properly.
If something doesn't fit the first time, for Pete's sake don't start drilling and hacking.
