I did the fork lock cover and the Road King insert along with new saddlebag latch covers. Ordered the fork lock cover and RK insert from Boardtracker Harley and the latch covers off of Amazon directly from China ...
I live in west central Wisconsin and Broadtracker is in Janesville Wis ... guess which part arrived to the doorstep 1st - heheheh The latch covers were only 29.36 ... great fit and like the look better than the chrome stock ones.
I also cut brake pedal off and drilled hole to match the peg on gear shifter ... I might get the brake chromed sometime later on.

Mine sits for two weeks while I'm on vac in Florida. Dealer already tried to get me to trade her in (the bike that is). Told them it's 1200 miles away. New street glide would be sweeet. Did see a 12 CVO road king with 16" yaffe bars that I did like. Might be an option for mine.

Finally got my valve train noise figured out.
Talked to a local indy that I trust who recommended that the lifter preload be set to 2.75 turns (24 tpi...to .114) also reamed the PR tubes out some more as I had some marks on the front intake valve PR...,
and I now have the nice smooth sewing machine noise just like it was when it was stock (I went to a full stage 2 from from stock..Andrews 48s, Rush full 2-1, open K&N from DK)
Jumped on the interstate to do some miles and my right speaker **** out on me... never ends!!
So replaced with some Hog Tunes speakers that came with the bike.. open the fairing and see the dreaded electrical tape wrap on some of the harness..
but everything is working fine so I cleaned and put dielectric on all the connections (it's raining here..can you tell??)All is right with the world now...Till the next time!
