Percy...ascetic changes are my jam since I also have a new bike. I like how every little piece be it cosmetic or functional add our own flair and personality! Great change I’m not a chrome guy.
I hear ya on the chrome. Just bought some black caps to cover the chrome bolts on my risers. I love the ability Harley gives you to customize these bikes. The Rarebag I ordered from Germany arrives on Monday while I'm away on a business trip. I'll have to shoot an update after I put that on. I'll put heated grips and 1.5" risers on next month then I think I'm done for awhile. I think. LOL
Hi Percy. I went to change my 2018 stock chrome cover and I’ve now discovered that the case on the 2018 differs to the 2019 in that on your 2019 the seal fits into a groove in the case itself. On my 2018 the seal is fitted into a groove on the derby cover..... so that part does not fit. Back to the drawing board to source a cover that will actually fit a 2018 fatbob. Grrrr
Seriously? That sucks. I wonder if there's also a difference with the '20. I've been waiting for a year for Milspin to do custom derby covers for our bikes. With my luck, they'll probably do one for the '18 and not the '19. That's for commenting with this. Hopefully others will find it useful.
I ended up ordering a custom cover! The deal with the custom machines aluminum cover is that you have to purchase the Harley gasket vs use a rubber seal but it seems to work just perfect and now I have a totally bespoke look into the bargain

Hi ! do you need to do it during oil replacement please ?
You can do it without changing your oil.
@@withPercy thank you!
I was wondering if I need to have the derby empty in order to avoid any oil leakage
No. You can just take the cover off and replace it without worry of any oil coming out.
@@withPercy thank you very much for the answer ;)
going to do one one my sport glide so was helpful, thanks
You’re very welcome. Thanks for taking the time to let me know it helped.
You can also get the black/orange timer cover for the other side.
I’ve seen that. Not sure if I’m going to swap that out. Might put a US Army cover on the timer.

Part number for that breakout derby cover please?
That’s from the sledge (fxdr), it looks great!
Thanks! And Happy New Year!
I did this to mine along with the timing cover from the FXDR.
Great minds! Looking forward to seeing more videos of your bike.
That's cool. I'm subscribing.
Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Night and day change!
Thanks. I agree.
@@withPercy looking for one but, like all other HD parts, price is exorbitant - this small piece is around 300$!!!
Let alone availability, these days.
Great. I want to put the bronze one on mine. Thanks!
Red & black looks nice! Satan's colours :)
LOL
