Danimal Posted April 4, 2009 #1 Posted April 4, 2009 So last time I was out riding as I went around a corner I heard that familiar sound of metal hitting ground. Kinda like dropping a wrench on concrete. I pulled over right away to check out my baby and didn't see anything odd or wrong with her. Rode the few miles to home and looked it over a little better but still didn't see anything. Skip forward to today and I jump on for a short ride and I can hear a a rattling noise coming from the back of the bike. So I jump off determined to locate this racket once and for all. Start with the trunk, nothing loose a broken. Move to the bags, nope still nothing. OK let's check safety chrome, yep there we go. The right saddlebag guard is the source. Apparently the end cap bolt came loose and I lost both the bolt and the little cap that connects to the crash bar(near passenger foot). So the question is, can I buy just that part or is it one of those all or nothing things? Or if anyone has one off a crashed bike and that rail is damaged and they don't need that little end cap I'd be happy to purchase it from them. Thanks in advance, I'll be outside doing a thorough nut check. Stop it you know what I mean!
Cougar Posted April 4, 2009 #2 Posted April 4, 2009 Been there done that... you will have to find or ask around for a wrecked guard etc.. matter of fact , not sure if ECK has turned his bike over to the ins company. But I did notice that his guards were totaled as well. might want to pm him to see if you can get that one small part. Jeff

bongobobny Posted April 4, 2009 #4 Posted April 4, 2009 Just because you ride a Harley wannabe doesn't mean it has to ACT like one...:stirthepot:
