I do believe Atticus Finch nailed it...keep that website handy...I use it and the parts finder at Outpost Alaska handy to get part numbers...I believe Ronnies will give you a discount, what I normally do is source the part number and go to my local dealer and get the part. Crappy I know, but hey...how many guys go and look at stuff at the local dealer and buy it online...only seems fair.


Be aware that it's possible that the extra capacity oil pans might actually cost less than the OE part...

But as you have stripped the bike down to nearly the bear bones,,, there is not a hint of oil or mess anywhere to be seen .... You must be congratulated ......

I had a drain pan on the table under the bike for most of the teardown. Went pretty well.
