Can we start a list of parts that will "100%" fit the 900.

"NO" assumptions please and "NO" it should work.

For a 100% fact;

Rear master cylinder cover(chrome) on the 06 Mean streak will fit.
Rear tail light is the same.
Saddlebags for the RoadStar 1100 fit perfect.

I know there are more but I cannot be 100% sure they will bolt on.

well tried to order a cowl visor for a 900 and a rear master cover for thye 1600 thru BTK but washed out on both. the 900 showed no availability and on the mc cover they could not confirm the cover listed was chrome for the 1600 meanie. cant win


ps-when i gave them the # for the cowl visor it crossed to a 1600 so i may try the aftermarket using that logic

Ghost Brackets ADJ-104, but you gotta get a metal file to extend the slot so the brackets will be wide enough. I know that doesn't quite fit the criteria of this thread, but it's really very easy to make them fit.

Oh yeah, and you gotta find some bolts that are 40mm long instead of the ones that are supplied which are 55mm long.

Cheers!

Don't see why not. I've had Carolina throw over bags that I'm going to use. As long as they are not soft bags, which I believe there not, should work. In my case, I'll cut the throw over section off, and mount the brackets to the bags. Spoke to a guy that did the same thing with his, it worked and looks fine. Been after these guys since the problem with Ghost Brackets back in May. They finally started shipping the 900 brackets last week. Got the first set from West End Motorsports on order. Was told that he has 2 sets for the LT coming. The bolts are longer because of your back rest.

Easy Brackets are shipping! No filing or xtra bolts. VC900-R1
Yeah, I wish I had gone with them to start. They weren't going to be available when I wanted them, so I ordered Ghost Brackets. The people at GB kept saying the brackets were "shipping today". Weeks later, it was the same story. In the end, I would have had the easy brackets in about the same time. Now that I have them on my bike, I guess there's not much difference. It was just frustrating.

Cheers!

Has anyone verified the M1-110?
How much room is there above your M1-108? I'm thinking about a 900 for my wife, but would prefer to maintain as much in common with my 1600 as possible.

I know, I could run the 108 on the 1600, but why when I don't have to? :)

You can order a chrome OEM part to replace the rear master cylinder cover that fits exactly and dresses it up nicely. I did it and like how it looks. From an '06 nomad or some such. I don't remember the part number and don't have the paper work here, but I ordered it through BTK. Although it took some looking we found the right part. If you have trouble they can look up my invoice and get the P/N from there.

Steve,

I'm glad it worked for you. You have no idea how many times I was tempted to try something! Ghost PMO so bad, that I just refused to deal with them. I got on a first name basis with the guys at Easy. Even offered to be the test dummy and see if other models would fit. Don't have them in my hand yet, but, Easy and WestEnd said I would have them next week. Will post.

I modded my rectifier bracket easy enough and put in little nylon spacers to give the oil filter more room.
