Swingarm & axle covers for '07 FatBoy?
I'm in the hunt for a swingarm cover kit that fit the 2007 FatBoys. I know HD and Kuryakyn makes them but I had heard because of the wider rear end, (something about the larger axle bolt) they may not fit the 07's. Any ideas?

The HD-PN 47596-91B will fit the 07 Fatboy, with minor modifications, this kit comes with 2-) 1/8" thick spacers to offset the exhaust so it will clear the axle covers, they will not fit the 07's new style bracket, in order to offset the stock exhaust you will need to remove the passenger footpeg and extension (T-50 torx) and insert a 1/8" thick washer (hardware store)between the frame and the exhaust bracket, there are also 2 bolts and nuts on the bottom of the bracket that need to be spaced the same 1/8". Hope this helps a little.

just to complicate this thread even more, what about HD-part # 48112-00 along with after market pipes (Vance & Hines BSS)

Based upon my experience with the covers I installed (47596-91B), other than clearing the exhaust it fit just as it was suposed to, The BSS pipes are no where near the axels, so it should not be a problem. I would say it will fit. as these covers use the same mounting hardware.
