Default Vented points cover

Is there such a thing ?
Or do I have to make one?
I have Daytona TT in there, and try to keep it cool.
I usually run no cover or the cover with stand offs so it gets air.
Its just one more little hassle I would like to solve.
So if you know of one please let me know.
thanx

I've thought about it but i get caught in the rain alot and i dont want the ignition getting soaked. If you cant find one, make a template out of cardboard and you can space out the holes you drill in an even manner.

Thanx
I can make one-, just a 10000 other things to do here
If i did it would be a standoff aluminum with frogs skin and adjustable vent.
So if it rained hard I could tighten it up with a 1/2 a turn.
I would almost think someone has to be already doing this.

the adjustable vent is a great idea

I made my own. I do that a lot.

Not worried about rain getting in because the ignition modual is sealed and when I wash the bike I just run some tape around the edge of the cover and water stays out.

I would love seeing it come to fruition. Sounds like a really noce approach to benting an area that desperatly needs some kind of cooling factor

I can see it my head- pretty simple.
As soon as I get my pistons mocked up again and back in I will make one.
Perhaps there is a market for it for 20 bucks?

Just out of curiosity are you having problems with the one you have now??
I know of a few people running that in the nose cone ignition and they haven't had a problem with the heat yet...
