Timer cover differences
Can somebody tell me (preferably with illustrations) EXACTLY what the differences are between the pre-2004 and the 2004 and later Sportster timer covers?
So I can tell at a glance, hopefully.

I thought it was only the orientation of the two holes, vertical or horizontal which could be changed by way of rotating the inner plate 90 degrees. Unless the ones Ive seen were modded in some way..

I think he's thinking about the Jap bikes there.
And that's a myth.

2004 Sportster engine....
2003 Sportster... I dunno. Maybe the covers changed slightly when Harley went from solid mount to rubber mount engines. Been studying a bit. It looks like the ignition setup changed between the two years. Perhaps there's an o-ring on the earlier model timer cover.

Fixed.
Upon further review, it looks like Harley changed the ignition timing point from the cam ('03 and earlier) to the crankshaft ('04-later). Clear as mud.

Well, I'm just getting confuseder.
Some of the H-D ones are marked '04 up ONLY, so if it's just the relief cut in the back, that makes zero sense. Like many things they do...
