Default Color-Matched Side Covers....
It sure would be nice if HD offered them.

Sounds like an item that we should see in the accessory catalog.

Harley, are you listening?

I'll send mine to my painter in the meantime but I think those would be a good
addition to their paint program..

New 18 Softails, no oil tank so it has covers in place of. Mono shock and battery are under them now.

Ah, gotcha thanks. I said the same thing about the touring models, only offer a chrome version for more bling.

I'd even be interested in some chrome ones if they don't come out with the color match.

Doesn’t the Deluxe come with chrome covers? I’m sure they have part numbers and can be ordered.

So I'm guessing these covers aren't plastic like the old FXRs?
