R65 Swingarm Bolt covers
« on: July 11, 2010, 09:07:18 PM »
I have had my bike (an 84 R65) for a short time and recently lost one of the plug covers for the swingarm bolts.  does anyone know of a suitable source or do I have to go t a dealer to get one?   Are these things prone to coming out easily?  Any suggestions would help.

It's pretty much a dealer only part, around $5 each .

Got a pair from Motobins for less than 5.00 each. One of my old uns was knocked out by my boot heel whilst doing my Hailwood imitation. Next up, Barry Sheene...
