Think they originated for things like Triumph to try and hold some of the "tappety" noise inside and not for Honda engines  ;D ;D ;D

They are of a period in Cafè racer look though.

Have got 4 used ones where the fins are vertical instead of horizontal that can go cheap if you want them. Send a pm if interested
