I have option one and I like it.

Same here. Only had one little problem. Developed a rattle. Thought something terible was going on inside. Once I figured it out I couldn't get the damn thing off cause the set screw had way too much thread lock on it. Dealer broke two allens trying and finally just removed the whole thing a warrantied it. No probs since and very happy.

Option 1 and the Dyna fuel line I see.

Everytime I ask my dealer he frowns on the idea and I don't pick it up.

I have used the fuel line on my last 2 SE scooters with no issues,
I am glad my dealer installed it for me,
I like that look !!!

Thanks. It is really surprising how many people outside the CVO world think my bike is one of those dull red Fire Fighter Edition HD's with the bogus decal set.

Poor uneducated masses.... they are to be pitied (and educated at every opportunity)

Porthole, the braided "Dyna" line is fine.  It's the same lenght, same fittings, same I.D. and same pressure rating.  Some dipstick simply never made the initial fitment description as inclusive as it could be.  And once the garbage was "in" that's all that ever came back "out."  I checked the specs on the line itself before putting mine on a year ago.  It takes five minutes to change and is a nice improvement in appearance.  It also has the fitting on the tank end that will accept the chrome fuel fitting cover (many of the black ones don't) and the line and fitting cover look great together.

Seeking some feedback from anyone that has installed one of the following headbolt bridge/cover products...

Finned Headbolt Bridge

Yes, I used these (the black one) on my last Ultra. Great appearance, easy to fit. I will be having them on my CUSE!

Heyyyyyyyy... I didn't go with any of that (but I do like option B). I got the chrome caps that go on the headbolt.

Have on FLHRI, FLHRCUI and FLHRSEI.  No problems other than make sure you tighten and threadlock when you put them on...lost the front one on my FLHRSEI...(where the hell is that rattle coming from....oh, it stopped....)  I figure more cooling is better than less cooling...and while you wouldn't think they'd help (not much metal to metal contact) they DO get hot so should be helping...

cornflakes through the nose Dude. Man been there, done that. After all these years, you'd think I'd stop whenever I heard a rattle  

Thanks for the laugh

Jock,
I went with option #3 and because I too was told that #2 would be a heat problem with my lowers on. I shook my head for a bit, but being a new bike and not wanting to give them any excuse if a problem arose I went with #3.
 I was on the Kangamangus Trail and started hearing my I thought was my primary knocking, thinking that the bridge covers are the only new item just put on did I reach down with my gloved hand and pushed on each cover which were both loose.
 This happens a lot with #3 and can make some unreal noises till you get them tight again.
It wont matter if you use heavy duty Loctite on them either, they'll loosen up.
Mainly where the problem lies is if the head bolt happens to be not in-line straight to the set screw and trying to lock into a angle of the head bolt, it has the tendency to back out. And I had them turned in to the point of snapping or stripping the set screw
Damn thing even popped off one ride and damn if I didnt just put my hand down to check it and it landed right in my glove!
 So I got the #2 option now and when the heat comes up I'll be taking my lowers off anyways, But not that I can swallow that horsechit that the heat will be to much, The computer already tells me that at the drop of a hat!

[The Mysterious Q!]
