The Kury plug runners for std/tourer fit the IS fine, you may have to loosen the pods to get them underneath, or not. The IS cut down version has been out of production for a year or two.

I've got em on my Interstate. I seem to remember something about it being too long on one side...but either they fit ok anyway or they were easy enough to modify...can't remember which...sorry!

The I/S version is the same item, just the length is cut down to accommodate the radiator pods. Or as mentioned, loosen the pods and raise them enough to slip them in place. I just cut mine down since adding pods after I already had them on my Tourer.
A bit of advice; when pulling the plug caps up through the opening on those covers, spray some rubbing acohol on the caps. Makes the rubber slip real easy on metal and leaves no residue.

A good time also to change your plugs and make sure those plug chambers are clean and the water drain is open. You won't be pulling those Kury covers off very often.  |

As already mentioned, they will work on the I/S. You will have to remove the pod to secure it at the front intakes. If you have the fog lights installed in the pods, you will have to trim the front edge of the runner because of the bracket that holds the fog light. I just used snips to notch out the front edge of the runner for the fog light bracket. I spent way too much time trying to trim them to fit exactly around the bracket. Don't worry about it being perfect, the pod covers just about all of the front cylinder and there is no way it can be seen.

Oh my Oh My... I get to share some of my handy work again. Now keep in mind I do have the pod lights installed so I had to modify mine just a bit or a good fit, very tight but it does fit. And here is the link too the entire thread... Enjoy. http://www.valkyrieforum.com/bbs/index.php/topic,21439.0.html |
