Tick GONE!!! ROCKOUT Rocker Shaft Inserts!!!!!!
I did mine today on my 09 Heritage. I started it yesterday but ran into a problem with the breather gaskets. When I took the breather bolts out and removed the breather the breather gaskets fell apart and I also had a tough time getting the inside breather bolt to clear the frame. While I was waiting for today to get the gaskets from Harley I tried reinstalling the bolt and it was a PITA to get back in. So I find out today at Harley that the gaskets are no longer available and an updated breather assembly is now replacing the gaskets as a kit. It was around$15 fot the kit which included two breathers. They now use shorter bolts and the breather plate is much shallower so it went in easily. I buttoned it up and took it for a spin and all was well. I did not have any witness marks at all on my bolts and it didn't seem like there was any play in the rocker shaft themselves. They were very tight. Time will tell when the weather gets warmer if they work for me. It would have been a simple 2 hour job but it turned into four hours because of the old style breather I had. But all is good and it didn't explode when I started it Here's a picture of the new style breather.

Hi GB,
Thank you very much for trying my Rockout kit. Yeah.... sometimes those bolts can be a bit tough to remove. Sometimes it's best to just loosen them all the way & remove everything as a unit when the supports come out.
Thanks again, & please let us know your results when you get a few miles on her.

Hey John, just a note to say this product rocks! Took the bike out for a somewhat extended ride this evening. Mixed surface street and highway riding. I have to say I can't believe how noisy the engine must have been and I just got used to it because it is incredibly quiet now. Just amazing.
Thanks for finding the answer.

Dog bone wrenches are available lots of places.... Amazon for one (search for torque adapter). For torque, put the adapter 90* to the handle of the torque wrench, no correction factor is needed.

I just used a 3/8 box end wrench with a 3/8 drive torque wrench. The torque is the same as long as the wrench is perpendicular or at 90 degrees to the torque wrench handle. Got some stainless 1/2 inch head hex bolts and sanded/polished them for the rocker box covers. As the stock ugly bolts are 7/16 and didn't have a combo of wrenches to torque them back to spec. Not really necessary just do em in sequence and don't over tighten and it won't leak.
Not a good pic, Blurry and a spec of dust looks like a blemish but you get the idea.
