Cant seem to post the link on this work computer, but ebay has the stock (used) timing covers from time to time as well. Search "Harley V2 timing cover" or "Harley evo timing cover". YD
I think one was used in the movie Flintstone's too.
I gave my 1996 product guide to the guy that bought my 1996 RK, many years ago.
I remember there was a 45rpm record that had the sounds of the Evo engine. Also, the bike cooling with it's "tick, tick, tick" sounds. Pretty underwhelming actually.
I still have the 1996 Touring Handbook (North America.)
PM me if you want it. Your cost is shipping.
Got the 1998 edition too.

Seems like mine did not come with fishtail pipes!
Could this be a difference between US and European versions?
Can I just buy the fishtail ends and bolt them on, or must i change the exhausts altogether?
