Just a quick note about buying on amazon...

Seems their current supply sold out. There are more in a truck a few miles from their warehouse.... will be there tonight or tomorrow. In the meantime you can always order direct at the email address below.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks as always for your support.

Installed them on my stock 09 tc-96" that now has 17,500 miles on and all went well.

I was surprised i could bearly see any witness marks on the bolts that retain the rocker shafts when i removed them.

Even though there didnt seem to be much if any witness marks on the bolts i figured i may as well still install the bushings which went just fine.

I got the valve train running approx 85-90% quieter after i switched to spectro oil for HD's after that installed wards cooling fans & untracool oil cooler with dual elec cooling fans that reduced oil temp 50+ deg that made the biggest reduction in valve noise .

But there was still a low lvl (5-10%) of suttle clicky ticky metallic noise at times i couod with stock quiet pipes that the rocker bushings seem'd to take care of even though i didnt see much if an witness marks which was good.

While i had valve covers off i hit them with semichrome and then waxed then prior to reintsall,they look like new!

Then while fuel tank was off with bike going on 7yrs old i decided to change the plug wires while i was at it because i couldn't get my fingers on the front plug wire with tank on so swapped them out.

I slit rubber tubing and slid it over the plug wir4es where they were close to engine heat and or rubbed on engine or frame.

I also installed a new set of HD's DBL Platinum perf plugs of stock heat range that are much more resistant to gap erosion then std or single plat plugs are and will go 40-50k miles NP as long i keep up on air filter & oil change maint too.

Default rock out

So, once installed how do you remove them to be able to pull the shaft in the future? From the description, its a tapered crush sleeve that goes inside the bolt hole, I get that, but how does it come out in the future. With the sleeve pressed in there with the bolt, it presses into the rocker shaft groove correct?

Didn't read this post. Tried to order earlier today from Amazon. Went to the link and ordered them there. Very fast and easy. Looking forward to putting them on my '13 bagger. It sounds like a cornpicker.

To remove them you tap them out from the bottom. They'll come right out but might well be damaged.

You would only have to remove them at all if you need to disassemble the rocker arms/shafts.

Thanks.
Yes, ours were the ROCKOUT units and purchased on Amazon. Now I am realizing there are actually two different products out there.... ROCKOUTS and Rocker Lockers? I guess there are two different products and suppliers. My original creation of this thread were all about the ROCKOUT product available on Amazon. Worked great and very happy with the results. Sorry if this has created some sort of confusion on the two different offerings...
