Do all 06 K9'S have the TP rocker boxes?

[badyellowvette]

Still looking for a K9 and I find a lot of 2006 K9 at some good prices but don't want the TP rockers. When I say a lot I mean a few. When did BD change the rockers?

Not all 2006 have the TP's ... I think they changed them out mid-06

 

[woodbutcher]

believe the majority of the '06's had TP except right at the end of the year.

Never seen the TP rockers I would guess it's easy to see the difference. Hell I've never seen a K9!

The TP's have 4 bolts on top, S&S has 6.

I bought my K-9 in September of 2006 and I have TP rockers. 21,000 miles on it and no engine problems at all. Soon to be on my third odometer...going dakota digital.

No problems with the TP on mine. Isn't TP really an upgrade to the s&s in the real world? I'm aware of the issues some owners have with TP but I also hear a lot of success stories.

I think you can get a set of s&s rocker boxes, rockers, and covers with all hardware and gaskets for like 600 bones. If I had 600 I'd consider this over a set of those 600 dollar pegs lol

There was someone about a year ago selling a couple dozen sets on ebay for $600. That's why I said that. I know lots of guys on here bought them b/c it was such a good deal.
