No prob Toxic! You will love the new riding position then if your my height. It's well worth the cash for it. I could never go back now. The kit is high quality but the instructions are a joke. But if your good with a wrench you will figure it out. The brake bracket side made me scratch my head but I had a few beers too . If you need pics of it installed on my bike give me a PM and I will hook ya up. The kit also come with blue locktite and zip ties for the brake line.

Thanks CSS, will do. I found a kit on ebay that I want to get, only thing is, I can only find them for 00-06 and 07+ from Arlen Ness. I emailed the ebay seller so hopefully he's got some suggestions for my '99.

No dice on a Ness kit for a '99. I wish I knew how different they were and if slight modification made it do-able.

I found an Accutronix kit for it for around 160 though, no brakeline (boo), and it's chrome (doubly boo). Nothing a little sand blast and powder coating won't fix though.

I have to get one of these kits. At 6-3" I need to move my legs out a little more.
