I boogered up my clutch inspection cover and found one on eBay for 8 bucks. Can I just swap it out, or do I need to worry about fluids and gaskets? Thanks,

As long as you keep the bike upright while opening, you should be ok.

Even on the side stand, if you are leaking more then a few drops of fluid, you over filled it anyway.

The gaskets are a bit fragile, but I have never ruined one.

I do have a spare on hand though, just in case I do break it when changing the primary oil.

They only cost a couple of bucks. Got mine from Daves. I don't know if your local Harley dealer will have one in stock or not.

Isn't it the same gasket as the new Sporty's?
