Search ebay for "harley custom derby cover" - there are a lot of painted ones with pretty decent designs. also if you search google for "engraved harley derby cover" you'll get some hits by artists doing some insane stuff. those will set you back about $500-$1000 though for an original.

Thanks LA.

Sorry for all the newbie questions but I am a newbie. Got my 2016 breakout 3 weeks ago. First Harley for me Crazy finding stuff for it. Can someone help me with the derby cover. It is 5 hole and measures out 7.25 inch but when I called precision billet they said they are making one for my bike but its not available yet. Spoke to MountainMachine and he says his should fit no problem.

I think Im gonna go with mountain machine, they have a really cool one called see no evil hear no evil with three skulls on it. Just don't want to gamble 300+ bucks and it doesn't fit.

LA, do you do this for a living? how do u find the time to get it all done

thanks again

Welcome and congrats- lets see some pics! Nah just a hobbyist, some times I have more free time than other times. Some here will say I don't know wtf I'm talking about either. depends who ya ask

I'm thinking, does the new BO have the same larger trans derby cover as the new 2016 touring bikes?

if so, there are quite a few of them on ebay, mostly painted ones though. search ebay for "2016 harley derby cover" and see what comes up.

You're looking for a 5 hole Derby Cover that fits a 103 V-Twin engine. It doesn't really mater what model HD, Dyna, Softail, whatever. There are a LOT of companies which offer parts that fit the BO, and they just don't know it yet. This includes the MoCo itself. Its all part of the BO mystique and a major reason this thread is the success it is .

Drpete, I'm gonna suggest you go to the Dennis Kirk site and maybe J&P Cycles and RevZilla and open on line accounts with em putting the details of your ride on their site. These after market 3rd party parts Dealers are getting reasonably wise to the BO and what fits it. At least with these guys, if you order a part they claim fits and it doesn't, you can send it back. All 3 of these outfits are great to deal with. You'll see once you register with these outfits you can shop for your specific ride and the site will tell you if a selected part will fit. This isn't 100% either and they do tend to err on the cautious side but their helpful sites are,,, helpful .

Agreed, just go by the motor. There are countless HD derby covers and after market companies available and no reason to spend $300.
Good luck

Oh wait- I forgot. Correct term would be "No booty-chan" right? :
