[QUOTE="canyncarvr, post: 437747, member: 16552"] Kicker update. Got my FRP unit. Put on a brandy new kawi knuckle. Wow...tight fit for sure. The fit is less good than I'd like. The flats on the lever and the knuckle don't 'mate' to any extent. That doesn't seem like it would be too good a wear issue. The lever mounts in two possible spline positions. The rearward one leaves the lever hitting the frame some..the forward one doesn't allow you to rotate the lever in/out without rotation of the splined shaft. The lever hits the clutch cover. The worst part is with the kicker fully down, it's not the footpeg that stops it...it's stopped when the base of the lever hits the engine!! Not good!! It will take some grinding/filing in several areas to make it fit without banging on something. Oh...and it hits the trans filler cap pretty good too. Good luck getting it to fit with o-rings. Clearance is about zip.point. My riding buddy B-I-L fixed mine up...but only by putting the knuckle on a lathe and sanding down the o-rings. Very s-n-u-g. That's ok with me! Yes. I did ask FRP about some of these fitment issues (the ill-mating flats). Didn't hear back from them. Found the other issues later. It's not a BAD piece...but it takes some tweaking to get it to fit. I don't think that should be necessary. :( [/QUOTE]
