Review on Harley Twin Cam Chrome Tappet/Lifter Block Accent Cover 00-16 Dyna FLHX FLHR by John Finley

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A little elbow grease

Product is as described. It doesn't fit on easily. I almost returned it because I couldn't get it to fit without forcing it. I was very concerned about scratching my chrome. So I thought about it for a minute and did this, I took masking tape and covered all chrome that could possibly be scratched with three "3" layers of masking tape, be sure to cover the push rods too, so as to not scratch them either! Then I used a rubber mallet to tap the front and used a thin narrow hammer ( which I put several layers of masking tape on!) and tapped in the back of the tappet cover. Take your time and be patient tapping the back part in. My tappet cover did not set on the motor on the front part. I noticed that I could see the double sided 3M tape under the front, and the tape was not sticking to the engine so, I took it back off and removed the tape because it wasn't being used and It looked tacky. Now it's on the motor and looks Great! Time for some "Wind Therapy!"

Pros
  • Love the added shinny bits and easy to install
Cons
  • The Harley Twin Cam Chrome Tappet/Lifter Block Accent Cover may be too flashy and ostentatious for some customers who prefer a more understated look for their motorcycle's appearance

The 3m tape was a little weak, but seems to fit good on my Road King. The chrome has a few wrinkles but really hard to see after its installed. Overall good deal for the money.
