Are you going to add a spoiler to it? I'm so used to seeing it on my bike I really notice when a Rocker doesn't have one.

When you did your spark plug wires, did you notice if they are 8mm or bigger? I don't know if it matters, but I am guessing that bigger is better.

The matching air-cleaner cover is out being chromed and will ship in about 2 weeks!!.... I also found a fiberglass chin spoiler, that I'm hoping I can make work, that should also be here tomorrow....

Here's a pic of the "hand grenade" coil cover I just ordered from Tecnicad, a company in Marone, Italy. (thanks again to Nostradamus for referring me to Simone).... This picture is one on member EagleRay's Breakout, that he had chromed, it comes polished, but I might also have it chromed. I also ordered a black anodized one for my BO....

EagleRay, if you ever get to the HD dealer in Nurnberg, please pick up a poker chip for me. I was born in Nurnberg and would love to have one. Danke!
