I actually just implinemted a real sweet fix to the holes in the battery cover issue. I plugged the holes with a set of rubber fender plugs that I got from my local dealer. Under $3, and looks perfect.
In case anyone is interested, part is:
.
Plug, Fender
Part # 10228
Takes a bit of twisting to get it in all the way since the plugs are a bit bigger than the holes, but if you armour all the part that goes in the hole, it will just twist in with minimal effort..

.......incidentally there was mention yesterday of a real good way to plug those holes on the battery cover band.
[side note: i see you took your battery band off, but you still have the holes. i just put some cheap stainless steel bolts through the open holes on mine. looks much better.] was posted by OdiusBarbarian.

Thanks, plus, you just can't beat the price! Next I am looking for something to plug that ugly hole at the back of the front fender. I believe that the lower fairing plug from my CBR will fit perfectly in that hole (on the phone with the Honda dealer to see if they can get me one)...
