I just saw that bike, it is in a shop right near my house in New Hyde Park, NY. North Shore Motorcycles (that's actually a pic of their shop up top). Give them a call, I know that bike is still there as of yesterday, may be a customer's or an employees, not sure, but they should know all the parts on it.

Not sure, but I will be calling them today about a different part, so I can ask them and if no posted info, I will update you.

Just got off the phone with the place. Made by a company called Xzotic and fits newer twin cam and evo engines. Not sure on price though, only the shop was open when I called, but I see these are available online. Hope this helps..

Xzotic rocker cover kits can be purchased on J & P Cycles website last I checked. Xzotic makes Panhead rocker cover kits for Twincams, as well, and a cam cover that is designed to look like the old generator style case on the bottom ends of old Knucks, Pans and some Shovels.

I saw a custom bike at Downtown HD in Seattle with a Panhead kit.

If you did both the cam cover and the rocker covers (and a kicker kit for your transmission), it'd take a close look to identify a TC as such ... expecially, if you had a belt drive.

I think there's a search function on J & P website you can use to locate the Xzotic parts.

There was a harley dealer here that had a 07 springer classic that had those, and the whole bike was done to look like a 47 knuckle. It was very cool, but they wanted like $40,000 for it.

Not really. A second look, but not close. All you have to do is look at where the pushrod tubes enter the engine case. On a TC they are spaced out (because there are separate camshafts operating each set of pushrods). On a true Knuckle or Pan, the two sets of pushrod tubes come together right where they enter the engine case (because there is only one camshaft operating both sets of pushrods).
