Default Throttle Servo Cover PM vs Kuyakyn

For those who have seen both in person, just wondering your opinions between the two? I was going for the PM one since I am installing the Super Gas air cleaner, but after viewing on line it kinda looks like an after thought? Or like a big piece of metal sticking out?

The kuryakyn one looks like flows over all with the bike better. It's really hard to gauge just off pictures though.

What's your take? Have you seen them both? I don't like the idea of big plastic and rubber sticking out for my set up once I have the new cleaner installed.

I think the exposed connector looks way better than the bizarrely hideous Kuryaken thing.

I modified a PM servo cover to fit a SE backplate to hide the ugly plug a log time ago. Havn't seen the Kury, and the HD ones look terrible. I added the medalion to give it some extra texture/depth.

That looks pretty sharp Smokey. Do you have any pics of it backed up a few feet to see the overall view? If not... no problem and thanks for the pic. I like it from this view.

I don't think the Kury looks bad with the right air cleaner (Velociraptor)
