    The bobs will work. Keep in mind you will need two power head gaskets when using an alien cowl. It has a stainless plate that sandwiches between the power head and adapter plate.

    You will need a promax exhaust divider to mount coils on divider, cowl wont fit with coils on bracket with the 4 long studs
