I think it's cool as long as you accept that you can't now enter an angry post about strangers touching your bike.

I would say with well over 600+ bottles now opened... the cover has held up just fine!

Not a day goes by without someone pointing or commenting on it... but haven't caught any unauthorized usage. That is probably because I think all the strangers are too busy rubbing their greasy *** hands on my flat black paint - why do people feel the need to touch the paint! (or is this just an isolated to me issue )

Ha! I was torn between putting the Bottle Opener either aligned to be straight with the Bike, or aligned to be straight with the Fuse Box. Ultimately I went with it aligned with the Fuse Box and it's screws, the small slant goes with the emblems on the gas tank due to the Tank Lift. Most of my friends liked it like this also. The only problem I had was that you have to use an angle to open the Beer otherwise the Bottle would hit with the Primary cap before it opened, but at the same time I think it's a good thing because it takes the stress from from the Fuse Box as it's now being pulled down diagonally instead of vertically (Making it harder to be pulled off completely) VERY EASY REACH AND OPEN FROM SITTING ON THE BIKE LOL. I went with a different bottle opener then the ones shown, but I liked this one due to the fact that it looks like It's part of the Bike... like some type of emblem lol! Here it is...

OH AND I KNOW IT'S A TWIST OFF, BUT THE CORONAS HAD YET TO ARRIVE. IT WORKED WELL WITH BOTH! Thanx JRK!
