Title: front hub cover
Post by: CDNRatMan on October 27, 2016, 10:27:16 AM
     ;) just a question here, if I was able to acquire a couple of front hub covers for the 800's would there be an interest in them. We would be looking in the $100.00 range plus the shipping from the supplier to me and me to you. If interested let me know then I will see if it worth the effort. Thanks.

  At today's exchange it would be $110.00 plus shipping from the UK to me and then from me to you. I am going to tell Uncle Malcolm to send me 2 of them anyway and see what happens, if I can not sell them I can turn the one into a bird bath.

  Newbie questions are so much fun and Everyone enjoys them. That is a Front Fender Guard, made by Ledrie a European company, and was made for the Drifter, 800 and they had one for the 1500.

If you can find one grab it. I bought mine from a company in Brussels, and shipping was something like $20.00, I think it looks really nice and I like it....lol......

                This fella motosloopbg on th ebay uk site is the person I bought the fender guard, and my engine guard, plus my sissybar and backrest from, I had nothing but super dealings with him. So if you hunt on the UK site you might find what you are looking for.
