I decided to go ahead and put in a heater from Summit racing. It was a pretty easy install with nothing too difficult to figure out. can't wait to try it out soon!

Two things be sure to burp all the air out of the system and Triple check for any leaks.. I installed a heater last yer which I love. But like a dump ass I had a very small leak on one of the hoseclamps that I didn't notice. It only really leaked once the machine got hot and was running. The leak kept causing more air in the system. Once I figured that out it worked great.. First couple of trips with it not so much.

It came with the heater and the electrical, I ordered the fittings from Univparts.com and the heater hose and clamps at a local autoparts. I have roughly $200 in the setup.

I THINK I have all the air out, how can I tell for sure? I had the front end raised very high and did all I could do including opening up the bleeder screw.

That should get the air out. For the next ride or 2 keep a tool to open the bleeder if needed and maybe a little extra antifreeze just in case.

Exactly what chip said. Your probably good just keep an eye on it. Double check for leaks after you ride the machine for a while.. Mine was very small and it only leaked once everything was hot and bouncing around.. Course by then I had mud and water everywhere so I didn't figure it out for a while...

I used a plactic clamp on the radiator hose to force the antifreeze into the heater. By forcing it through the heater core, it pushed the air right out. I used manufactured 90 degree hoses so I could keep the heater hoses lower than the top of the radiator. WV Rider made me some steel tee's. I used one 3/4", quarter turn brass gas type valve from Lowes. I turn it off in the warmer weather and we run the fan to circulate air in the cab.

I am out of town right now but will get you a pic when I get home. Its really quite easy, just behind the radiator, behind the shock.
