Chrome side cover rubber bumper

Post by Van Voyager »

The front side of the chrome sidecover has a small rubber bumper that fits into a small pocket on the airbox. The bumper comes off of the cover but unfortunately, it's not shown on the fiche as a separate part. I need one of those bumpers if anyone has one their willing to part with. Let me know. Thanks.

Hardware store is an option but truthfully it's not that important. I just thought that someone may have some ratty covers that would never grace a bike so don't need the bumpers.

One of mine is laying in the grass somehwere both of these covers were so stuck in the rubber grommets that when I got them to release it snapped the plastic post off the bottom of both covers and snapped one of those little bumper tabs off. if you find a source let me know I can rebuild the tab easy as pie and have already repaired the stay post that goes into the grommet, but the rubber is apparently unobtainium and even though I have scoured the grass where I took it apart I can not find the original rubber.
Life is not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride
