Oh wow, i pulled up the Kury site and they have installation instructions so I guess that answers my question. Cool I can handle that.

One thing i do see about the Kury's is they are round. I believe the guy at HD told me the HD covers were square. I think I like the round ones better. I will post pics.

Yeah it's comes down to $$$, I personally don't like covers at all, any type. I have a bro the has swingarm covers on his dyna and it just doesn't look right! But as for softails it might be different and look more like it was chromed than just a cover.

I like all of it, the chrome cleans up easily with ammonia or greased lightning, course I am a poser and never get it dirty. I bought the bike pretty much like it is in the picture, the previous owner had four Harleys and too much money so he chromed everything.

Good deal. I think I am going to go that route as well. I want to do the wheels but wow that's an investment. Thanks for your input, at least I know my plan now. Will post pictures as I go.
