ventureohio Posted June 15, 2009 #1 Posted June 15, 2009 Does anyone know of someplace I can get the vent that goes on the right side cover? I can find a left side on Ebay (which I already have one), But my right leg is getting a bit toasty now that summer is here. Thanks Guys.

dynodon Posted June 15, 2009 #3 Posted June 15, 2009 At least last year they were still available new from Yamaha, they want a pretty penny for them, but if you must have it, and one doesn't come up on e-bay (I got mine after over a year searching) then buy a new one?
Indyventure Posted June 15, 2009 #4 Posted June 15, 2009 I've been looking for right side vent cover also. I checked with the dealer but they wanted clsoe to $170 for it. WOW! some fine person on here gave me the heads up to http://www.cheapcycleparts.com/ they seem to have the cheapest price so far I've been able to find. as I reacall it was close to $130 there. the only other idea is as mentioned is ebay but even on there I've seen them go for a good penny. bob
bongobobny Posted June 15, 2009 #5 Posted June 15, 2009 You could find a pair of the chrome solid inserts and install them in the warmer weather... But then again they go for a good buck on fleabay as well. I do have a pair in fair condition I may decide to part with.
rjg1985 Posted June 15, 2009 #6 Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) Hello, Last fall I bought an 85 royale and it was missing the louvers in the left vent. I got a good one on ebay, but before that I was going to make an insert panel to replace the louvers. I work for a fab shop and have access to laser cutter. If I can draw it it will cut it. I can make a solid panel for summer and a panel with a custom cutout for cooler weather. If anyone is interested and has a design idea let me know. I have my old left hand vent yet, I will get a panel made for it and post a picture as soon as I can. Randy, Edited June 16, 2009 by rjg1985
rjg1985 Posted June 15, 2009 #8 Posted June 15, 2009 Great, I'm taking a road trip this weekend so I'm also working on a gps mount that goes over the false tank cover. I will post pictures of that also. I hope to have that on tonight. If you have somthing in mind for a cutout in the vent panel let me know I'm open to suggestions. Randy

rjg1985 Posted June 24, 2009 #10 Posted June 24, 2009 Here are some pictures of the side cover vent filler panel. I have 7 sets if anyone is interested. They are made from stainless steel.

Bob Myers Posted June 24, 2009 #12 Posted June 24, 2009 Those are pretty cool. Would look really cool with a piece of dark tint plexi-glass behind them for summer rides.
skydoc_17 Posted June 24, 2009 #13 Posted June 24, 2009 Hey Randy, I would love a set of those inserts. Have you figured out what you want for them yet? Count me in for a set! Earl
Gearhead Posted June 24, 2009 #14 Posted June 24, 2009 I bought a brand-new one from Zanotti. Now, that was 2.5 years ago, and it was around 70 bucks. Jeremy
bongobobny Posted June 24, 2009 #15 Posted June 24, 2009 I like those covers as well!! Let us know how much so I can decide just HOW much I like them...
