Default chrome swingarm covers

you would think HD would make a chrome swingarm cover for the sportsters, like some of the other models of HD. would be cheaper and easier then replacing the swingarm.

If that's the case than they must be kind of new because for years, I have looked for these also and HD did not make them for the Sportster. It was always having to replace the whole black swingarm for a chrome one, which is a lot more work than slapping covers on. Kuraykn also does not make these for the Sportster as far as I know.

Here ya go if anybody wants the swingarm... http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/g...bmLocale=en_US

The swingarm, belts guards, etc. are my next (and final, I SWEAR!) project. I have yet to find plain covers.
