Default Who has XZOTIC Panhead Style Rocker Box Covers?

I have read a couple threads here about the Xzotic covers. They are old threads and really only a couple useful responses.

Has anyone installed these on their bike (twin cam)? A long term report would be great. Did they work out the leaking problem? Or was it user error?

Any useful information you have would be great. Thanks

These in case you are wondering

Why would you make your bike look like something it's not?

why would you want a retro looking bobber type bike (slim) its not old, its not a real bobber. why would anyone want any harley? they are old looking, but not old. why would you put any accesories on your bike that make it look different. i guess you should sell your bike and buy the newest technology crotch rocket.
i guess nobody should modify their bike to their own tastes.

BECAUSE this is AMERICA and I can do any damn thing I want (if obama says it ok).


the idiotic response is just idiotic.

why would anyone use fake stone or brick on their house? if the house isnt made of brick then its a fake a wannabe. why would anyone need a car that goes faster than the speed limit? why do they make retro cars like mustang, charger, challenger. they arent the REAL ones. it could go on and on.

I couldn't find any recent reviews on these anywhere. I'm guessing they're not super popular due to their high cost. They do look fairly cool in the pics.

'Cos they look far better than the chrome bricks as supplied! Simple as.

If these things weren't so damn expensive I'd put the knuckle head looking ones on my Crossbones...

+1! But only in conjunction with the finned cam cover. IMO the pan covers don't look right with any kind of nosecone.

i agree. but, the rocker covers are real covers. i personally might have a hard time bolting the fake kidney cover they sell as part of the kit.(with fake magneto)

maybe the finned roland sands cover?

Well that's nice. Maybe the flow characteristics were different, maybe you were doing a "theme" build, maybe you had some sort of attachment to an old panhead and wanted to create a modern version, maybe you are just a plain ******* who still didn't answer my simple question. I wasn't trying to criticize, I was just asking. Thanks for showing me that you are a douche who just wants to make his bike look like something it's not. Now you are free to go about putting your ***-less chaps back on and sucking your MC presidents dick because I'm sure you're down like that.
