Default Throttle Servo Motor Cover?
So I ordered the K&N Air Charger for my 09 Road king but now I am understanding the reason for its lower cost... *IF* I keep and install this K&N aircharger the throttle servo motor and wriing harness is just left out in the open looking very IMHO ugly.

I was excited for getting the kit for 186.00 but I really need to get a cover before I am willing to use it. I see the Kuryakyn 8659 Servo Motor Cover as the only one being sold.

Does anyone know if this Kuryakyn cover is compatible with the K&N aircharger?

AND

Does anyone know of another options?

I'm really need to keep my cost at below 250.00 as I've doing other upgrades which took the rest of my free funds. Otherwise I would go for the HD SE version of this....

Thanks for whatever you may suggest,

The HD cover that the dealership tried to sell me didi not cover the entire plug. It only covers it from the front... not the top... therefore I went with the Kuryakyn.

I think the black HD one used with the Heavy Breather is around $25.
29009-08 wrinkle black and 28890-09 Gloss black.

Do you have a close up picture of it from an angle? I am guessing that it is also more universal than is suggested by most sources selling it that list it is for either the Conair or SE charger?

Wow your right, man I search and search but somehow these didn't pop up... I like the smooth look versus the kurk look.... I am hoping someone may have a photo to share though because another post below suggest it does not cover the area well.... Do you have one installed?

Thanks
