Panz, the primary I have has 8 holes around the perimeter, and yes a tab for the running boards would be nice but if not I can adapt something. I can polish it if the one you have is a little beat up. You seen the pics of mine so you know the detail I will put into it. Let me know and thanks. As far as the washer, I added one to the existing one and yes I know that in some circles is frowned upon but it worked. Ideally if iget the right cover hopefully I wont need a second one so yes very interested if you have one.

Clean , nice work partner .

You have to really watch the aftermarket covers too they are all over the board on quality and fit , had a number of them bind the starter shaft and had the clutch shell rub on the cast webs in some Just a heads up in that area .

Randy, this is the 8 hole aluminum one I have. Unfortunately the condition is not as good as I thought it was and may not be suitable for your bike.

Randy sent the primary the day you and I talked on the phone to get your area code. Thought you would have it by now?. If you do not I need to see if I can find the tracking number. I know that items frequently get delayed at the border because they think we are a bunch of terroists ****** but that is not the case.

Let me know when the primary arrives please.


UPDATE... oh $hit I just realized that is the primary I sent you!!!!!!! Wow you are a magic man!
