Made it to MPLS from CHI, but long story short, I sure could use some new tappet covers.  Stripped 3 out of 8 of mine before I left, and I might have a loose locknut issue.  New covers would allow me to take drastic measures to get the old ones off, check the valve lash, etc and be on my way.  I would of course compensate handsomely if anybody had some extra.  Thanks, all.

Oh, of course, I'm on a 750K6.

PS-  PM me, and I'll give you a number.  I'm in downtown Minneapolis, very central.  Can travel short distances to meet.

another possibility would be the local CL listing.  Here is one with Honda parts for sale in Mpls.

Ha, yeah, I hit up CL first thing as well.  Got a response back, but he didn't have the covers.  I think your PM suggestion about checking out Sport Wheels is spot on though.  And an awesome daytrip adventure as well.  Thanks again for the tip.

Sport Wheels is closed Sunday and Monday.  Call me if you need help with any tools I am about 2 miles west of downtown.

Sweet.  I think I got the tools.  I certainly wouldn't mind a second opinion on my "predicament" though.  I'll PM you about that.
