Called Hot Toppers today because thetappet block bolt covers I had installed have cracked. The lady on the phone asked if I would be interested in trying new covers for my rocker boxes that they are trying out because of the cracking. I said sure and she is sending me free rocker box bolt covers in black and replacements for the tappet block bolts. Thumbs up for them.

 

Post pics when they are installed.

 

I went on a Hot Toppers & chrome Allen bolt cap insert binge over the winter. I may be addicted. I am afraid that when I finally get a chance to ride, these things will be flying off all over the highway.

 

good for you

 

Every technitions nightmare
But they do stand behind their product 100%

 

I had them on my sportster and never lost a single one.

 

Funny. I was thinking about that when I was putting them on my wife's bike. Sucks to be the guy who will have to get these off to work on anything. Of course, I left a few off that went in places no one will ever see. For the rest I used a tiny dab of Silicone to make sure they don't fall off.

The comic irony is that it will likely be me that has to take these off since I do a lot of the wrenching myself.

 

i used hot toppers on my other bike, but they were too much trouble to get off to work on bike, so i noe have a drawer of them. would rather have the bolts chrome.. just my 2 cents worth,,,,,,,, kerry

 

They should for what you pay them for a handful of plastic covers

 

Your not kidding, was in the dealers yesterday and saw a set for my Softail and they wanted over $100. For that kind of money I'll wait a bit, save up some more money and order aset of polished Stainless Steel replacement bolts and nuts.
