Build Your Own Stage 1

hey, im doing my 15k service on my 08 ultra,
among doing some other mods, i came across something very disturbing
and need to know if anyone has seen this.

its with the stage 1 kit with the cast back plate 29260-08 is the kit #, the backing plate is 29239-08 stamped on the back

its been on the bike since i got it, dealer installed.

so, i take off the filter and clean it, (and no you dont oil this filter)
and i notice a (EDIT) load of oil grime and sand, yes i said sand, in the lower
portion of the intake, on the outside of the butterfly, havent looked inside yet, dont wanna puke.

i mean its loaded.

dealer has done all service since new so no one has touched it but them.

well, heres the problem, i happen to have the tank off for a oil temp ga. install,
so i look down, at the top of the filter back plate, and where the gasket is between the plate and the intake, theres space, ALOT of space, more then
1/8" to the point that i can see light thru it, could slide a quarter thru it!
now, i had just re loctited the 3 filter mount studs, so i figure my dumbness
did not tighten them enough.

well, i tighten one down, POW, the plate breaks under the stud!
its like its the wrong plate, cuz its a uniform space, like a washer thickiness.
like if the black bracket that holds the intake on was gone, it would fit or if it had a really thick gasket it would be okay, but not witht the gasket that is there

has anyone else had a problem with this kit?

Thanks Mr. Data. I have ordered this set-up, just the way I want it, and also bought the stuff I need to keep my old football. Results coming, soon as I burn up a couple more hundred miles, so I can get in there and finish my stage-1...

I got my parts from Chicago HD. This time they were pretty quick (Not always so, but do always get my parts). They are typically 20% off of list.

Enjoy,
Rich P
