I cant be much help except the ones I have seen on other bikes were awesome looking kits. I have read that they increase your wheel base if that is a concern.
Does anyone have good or bad comments about a CSC conversion kit for my 2009 Ultra? Thanks
I looked at them when I converted my bike. They are a quality kit if that's what you are concerned about. What I personally didn't like about them was their length and width. They are a tad wide compared to SOME other conversions. That didn't bother me. If you look at them from the side, the rear wheels are situated behind the passenger making them a little long. Overall I liked the kit but I just couldn't get past the look of the wheels being behind the seat. The length and width of them makes them a smoother ride than one with a shorter wheelbase or one that is narrower. If the look of the wheels being as far back as they are doesn't bother you, there is absolutely nothing wrong with them. The look was the only thing that stopped me from going with CSC. On mine (Champion) the passenger sits over the rear wheels not in front of them. That is my one and only criticism of the CSC kit and it's strictly a personal taste issue. There is nothing wrong with the kit.
i ended up with a road smith but csc was the other on my short list, because they both have he longer wheel base, if u ride 2 up they are the way to go. even solo imo they ride better. csc has the biggest trunk, but the running boards were not load bearing when i looked at em. as for front end you'll want to use a raked triple tree use the degree the manufacturer recommends.

Only thing about this is what a good frined of mine has said ...."I can't see it from where I sit"
For me, the longer wheelbase and wider trac is a plus since it will make the ride even better. Not too concerned about looks. The wife is, but she only sits behind me and even she can't see it from where sits either.
