ok guys I don't see a lot of info on this so I decided to post something about the R.I.P wire kit from Kansas city cycle works!
I was having trouble from my 04 big dog ridgeback. decided that instead of beating my head against the wall on trouble shooting maybe it was time for the upgrade! I bought the kit on ebay from I guess a dealer that sells the kit.
when I got it I was very impressed about the quality of the kit. im going to just say their really were no negative's abut the kit! maybe the only one was the statement that it is plug and play with no splicing! on my 04 the backbone hole was very small. I tried different configurations trying to make the harness thin enough to go thru the backbone! I supposed if I would have had a couple beers and a couple big husky guys to reef on the feed wire it might of went thru but I don't drink and don't have any big friends so those options were out!
I opted for cutting off 3 of the plugs, then taped it back up and then it pulled right thru the backbone. then the kit was very well labeled and their was only the issue that they had the compression release wires up at the front and mine spliced at the back so I just opted to splice them at the front. but all in all the kit was accurate and there were no miss pins as stated in other peoples comments. I got the bike done today and really only took me about 15 hours to install. bike runs like a scalded dog. if anyone has any questions don't hesitate to ask. I don't work for any of the people that were involved in making or selling the kit. im just a biker who likes to work on my bike and help others.
