Good morning ...

Hope this beautiful day finds you all well. In my always enjoyable quest to add very cool stuff to my "new to me" Trike ... I just ordered these Chrome Grip End Caps and Trim Rings for my Black ISO Grips. They should look really slick. I also ordered this M8 Engine Bolt Chrome Topper Kit (which I have done on previous rides) and really cleans up the engine look for a minimal investment. If what I'm after doesn't come from the HD shop, Kuryakyn (which HD also carries) has always been a good fit for me ...

Do you use any adhesive to keep the toppers from coming off? Been debating getting this set for my Tri Glide…

I had one of the stock ones break on my 17, it is a bad design. The threads are shot peened to the head, being aluminum it is a weak point

I got lucky and had an old school bolt in my junk drawer

Kuryakyn Kool Kaps Engine Bolt Head Covers/Topper Caps Milwaukee 8 Complete Set ...

This was fun and entertaining. I thought that I was done several times and kept finding more bolts to Kap. Adds a classy touch to the engine without being overwhelming or gaudy. You do have to use a dab of silicone on the inside of each Kap but all in all a super easy upgrade.

Is that Kuryakyn Chrome Complete Kit Part 2465? What year is your Freewheeler? I am trying to find the correct Kuryakyn part number for my 2022 Freewheeler.

Greetings lingone ...

2464 is the kit that I used. It is listed as the kit for the M8 but it does say 17 - 21 Not sure if there's anything different about the bolts on the 22. Some specific recommendations were in the instructions.
