An appeal to the guns of HDForums.com.au with this one...

I noticed today, and am bewildered as to how, but my plastic cover/casing to my warning light instruments (turning, neutral, high beam etc) on my XL1200C 2008 Sporty has been cracked.  The clear plastic/glass is shattered almost all the way around the darker plastic insert.

Not something to keep the bike of the road but something I'd like fixed to prevent water damage etc down the track.  So, any of you good folk know the part number for it, or I guess the surrounding encasement if it needs replacing so I can shop around?

I'm attaching a picture if my description was bollocks...  not my bike, but the red arrow has what I'm talking about!

The Americans give two choices, either ignore it or go to the dealer and use the warranty (which I might as well). If I do that, do I just phone or rock up and ask for a new replacement part, or do they have to put it on themselves and then you deal with service shop backlogs??!!

Maybe it cracked with all the loud guitar playin on sat, no maybe not

I got the stealer to look up the part number for me. Well, Dandenong was mighty unhelpful and Ringwood was great. Validates what I was hearing on the weekend.

68382-07 is the PITA part number. The 'bezel'. It seems like its just the cover over the light/LED assembly, must be, being only about $15 bucks a piece. I'll buy two.

Has anyone opened up their handlebar clamps on a sporty? I assume this part is just a snap-on cover??

Not just to simply bump this cos there are more important issues in this forum, but I got this little problem rectified. As it seems the North Americans have a heap of trouble with this, including about ten of them on hdforums.com - and it seems to just happen, must be due to heat or cold conditions, its a pain in the ass.

The good is that the part is seriously cheap - about $15 bucks AU. So I got a second one as insurance. It comes with snap-in tabs which pop straight on/off the light assembly, and a further not that Ringwood Harley Heaven has a super range of gear and accessories in stock and puts Dandenong to some serious shame, lots more helpful than giving out wrong advice.

So actually replacing it is a piece of piss...

The bad? Well that they crack for seemingly no reason. And the repair is a little annoying - taking off the dash component (and you get about best a quarter turn on each heavily loctited mofos - if you use a standard 'hockey stick' right-angle hex driver) and then reqtorquing in the same slow process and then to readjusting the bars.

Best done though, cos if moisture or crap gets into the light assembly, it could screw it up and that part costs about $130...

And if Weasel was right and it was the bluesy hard rock from last week, then that band seriously rocks. I noticed it the morning before our run though, so I can't give them that credit...

Hey Maple try Dale at dandy the rest are dipshits, seems very helpful in the past seems to know a fair bit about the best bikes in the world
