No rubber bushing included.The rubber bushing is needed, but I thought it came with the peg. Don't think you need anything else. Keep us advised. Cheers.

I ordered and received the RR peg mount bracket for the classic but I believe I will need more than just the bracket. In looking attjeparts matrix I will need the rubber bushing and maybe some other items to make all this work.

If you look at the attached photos, both drifters however mine [the Gooseberry colour] has the Drifter V&H whereas the other has classic V&H pipes [ignore the end pieces] with a home made attachment lieu of the Classic foot peg.

- October 02, 2018, 18:20:45 PMQuote from: chief on October 02, 2018, 16:01:05 PMI believe that to be the case but more specific my to my question is has anyone installed the set for the Vulcan Classic on the Drifter?We'll never have the number of members the generalized forums for active bikes have, but we have had almost 100 people here today. Some will have 800's and some will not have used V&H pipes, like me.
All I can tell you is there have been many, many Drifters with Longshots installed. I have not heard a problem with them.
Cheers.
Per my post earlier showing both model images.

- October 01, 2018, 22:27:43 PMQuote from: chief on September 30, 2018, 18:43:47 PMI am surprised as well to the lack of response.Looking at the V&H site I see the design differences you are talking about. I think these are year differences, not necessarily bike model differences. Look at some other bikes with replacement pipes and see if the lines are similar. I am surprised, with the number of folks who changed to Longshots, that someone with them hasn't responded.
I also own a Victory Motorcycle and am a member of the VOG forum as well, I guess im spoiled due to the fact that forum is pretty active and will usually get many replies to any question asked.
Either there is just not that many active members here or due to the fact that the Drifter has been discontinued for about 14 years now.

- September 28, 2018, 15:14:50 PMIn the past I owned a classic that had longshots installed on it but I have never owned a Drifter with them nor tried to install them on Drifter. No help..
