Tappet covers - 550
« on: June 27, 2009, 02:47:33 PM »
Hey guys,

I noticed the other day that one of my tappet covers was leaking and when I tightened it, it snapped off with the threads still in the motor.  I managed to get the remaining threaded part out, and clean up the metal shavings, but I need another tappet cover.  I suspect that the other ones might be next.  Does anyone have any spare tappet covers for a 550 lying around????  I'd be willing to pay shipping or buy them from you.  I can't ride until I get one.  Any ideas if no one has any??

Thanks,

Erik

they are not expensive, the dealer should have them.  I broke one and used one of a old honda z50 engine!!!
