Outter Primary Part Number Question ...
Part number 60506-89 is a number I have seen on the Net for a primary cover available without chrome and advertised to fit '89 and up Softail models.
Is the difference between 60506-89 and 60543-89 simply the factory chrome option and will it fit a '93 FXSTC? The "-89" suffix should fit '89 through '93 however the last 2 digits of the number raises some doubt.
Thank-you in advance,
Chris
According to my 87-90 parts book the chrome part is the same # as you have (suffix is -86A, but that is OK), but the plain cover is 60507-89. Hope that answers your question!
I did some additional cross referencing as well and it appears that the last 2 digits of the part number (excluding the year/suffix) do, in fact, refer to the part's finish.
In other words, of the 60506 part number, 06 = brushed, 43 = chrome and there are other numbers for black wrinkle and natural finish powder coat.
As long as the first 3 numbers match and the number of screw holes (in this case 12) are the same the part should fit perfect.
Thank-you again and all the best ...
