Default Just a quick little tip..

For those of you who may want to (or need to) remove/reinstall your primary cover, Do not forget the two little seals for the inspection cover screws. I believe they're called the tower seals or something like that. I had to replace the stator in my fatboy last weekend, and neglected to reinstall those seals. I had oil leaking around the long screws on the inspection cover every time I rode it until I took it apart and replaced them. They're just two little rings that cost about $1 each from the stealer. Ah well, live and learn.

Yep, and you normally have to put a little gasket sealer on them to keep them in place whilst buttoning up the cover. They should only be on bikes with an inspection cover though.
