Sounds like Murphy is alive and well out there!!!

You have to wonder....  This bike sure doesn't seem to want to take a fix easily.  It's ok though.  Not going to fight it and not going to lose any sleep over it.  The other bike in hand makes it only an annoyance.

Have been asked what the difference is.  Here's an image taken last week when I found I had the wrong side plate.  The red line roughly illustrates the shape of cover I should have.  What would be the top right bolt hole for the oil fill neck can be partially seen through the upper left bolt hole of the trap door.

I really should have noticed the wrong plate when eyeballing the parts upon opening the box.  It's not as if I didn't know what it was.  Just never put the old and new directly side by side and, lacking that, the difference is subtle enough I simply missed it until shoving it in the transmission and seeing the coverage area.  At that moment I did not say a bad word or three or four.  I promise.

At least partially exposed area that would annoy the major ph*k out of me.



The other bike is here and fine.  I don't have to rush anything.  I keep telling myself that.

That'd be almost as bad as seeing stock hinges on a tourpak wouldn't it?

Truth be told probably less .  Probably 85% of the area removed would be covered by the oil fill housing.  That doesn't mean I'm doing it though.  And your bare assed stock hinges are still ugly.

Thank you sir.

It just really sucks Mrs Dood said you can't have any hinges.

[Fired00d]

That would make me want to get them.

You can't have any.  Unless not until I've a transmission again.  Dammit.

[Fired00d]

You better hurry and get a transmission then.

But I'm still not getting those hinges for a tourpak that I don't even like to put on my bike.
