XV1100SE Posted July 11, 2014 #1 Posted July 11, 2014 Wayne (Wizard765) came over last night and I helped him put the engine guard braces on his bike and noticed that he has chrome covers over the bolts I have circled in the picture. Anyone know what the part number is or description for the chrome accessory that goes on the bolt head?
eusa1 Posted July 11, 2014 #2 Posted July 11, 2014 the bolt covers you refer to have been discontinued for several years and were priced at about 50 bucks to begin with. I can find the part # later tonight if you still want it, but the odds of location are slimto never at best.
XV1100SE Posted July 11, 2014 Author #3 Posted July 11, 2014 Part number would be good so I can look once in a while ... Thanks !

I hope you can find it so you can tell us where to find it too! Brian
ragtop69gs Posted July 12, 2014 #7 Posted July 12, 2014 They are called " motor mount covers" Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using Tapatalk 2

Brian That's the dangerous thing about being on this site and meeting members. See what you don't have and then ch-ching... you have it! I never knew I wanted those bolt covers until I saw them on Wayne's bike ! At this point, the only chrome I want is battery side covers. Will go with the flow of shiny parts. And maybe a Baron tach.... choke knob cover....braided brake/clutch/throttle cables.....

XV1100SE Posted July 13, 2014 Author #14 Posted July 13, 2014 There is a motorcycle wrecker/recycler that has been mentioned before but I can't recall the name.

brd7666 Posted July 13, 2014 #17 Posted July 13, 2014 Cycle World is showing that they have them both. I went through the whole checkout deal and it was going to send me to Paypal. Try them. http://www.shopcycleworldofhouma.com/star-motorcycles-billet-motor-mount-bolt-covers-detail.htm?productid=10650907 This one might have it too. http://www.generationmx.com/product_p/str-4nk27-18-01.htm The part is no longer made. Good luck.

Good luck. I had emailed GenerationMX last night and they responded saying they don't have it. I'll email shopcycleworld... and see what they say. Appreciate all the help ! And thanks Wayne ! Look what you are making me go thru because you have them on your bike !
XV1100SE Posted July 14, 2014 Author #20 Posted July 14, 2014 I posted on a couple sites that sell Yamaha parts asking if they have the item. I received a response from gearhead.com that they found two dealers that DO have some in stock : Florida - Red Hills Powersports British Columbia - GA Checkpoint http://gacheckpoint.com/ I called GA Checkpoint and sure enough... they had one in stock. Will Purolator it to me and I'll have it on the bike on Wednesday. Thanks again to all for your comments....and to Wayne for showing it to me something on his bike I didn't know I needed ! For anyone looking for OEM discontinued parts... from the response I received from gearhead.com... give them a try. In Canada, GA Checkpoint has a large inventory of parts.
