RE: Hooker Troublemakers for Crossbones
Be aware of a possible interference with the floorboards and your troublemakers. I just installed a set on my 07 Fatboy and had to add some spacers between my floorboard bracket and the frame. It wasn't a huge interference, but I had to add three (3) 3/8" washers to each mounting boltto end up with less than 1/8" of clearance.... and these were the pipes for 07-08 softails.I posted a thread on this a couple weeks ago.... but you may not have the same prob on a completely different bike.

Thanks Sarge, I think I will go for a different seat too, But I want to get pipes first. I do like the troublemakers... Decisions, decisions...
Keep us informed if you get em and how they fit.

Yeah, it changed the riding position for the better. I no longer feel like I am sitting on a Road King. I sit down in the bike now like you expect on a softail. I'm not ditching the idea of a bob seat altogether. I am thinking of going with a custom bob seat that is thinner and narrower. It's gonna have to wait for a while, cause I want to get the pipes first. I thought about settling for the V&H black staggered because they are a lot cheaper, but I think I'm gonna wait and get the Troublemakers. I've always wanted a set of these, so this time I plan on sticking it out until I get a set.
