It is advertised for the 550 and 750. It’s probably as strong as the chrome tin lids Ken? I liked the idea of it. Not a fan of the finned versions Ted, enough fins going on as it is with the engine uppers. Each to their own though. Just browsing ideas for the next project.😜

I could not find a finned one at sensible money , I found a NOS 650 alloy cover instead.

Lucky to find a 650 one Ted!

It wasn't cheap at £68.66 on e-bay from this ebay shop postage from France was included.
A bit of an indulgence really.

Must say Ted they have some nice genuine parts but their prices on some of the smaller stuff is bonkers! 15 euros for an 18mm washer, 3 euros with CMS.😳😳

I have a Cb650 one in my 550 and it's very solid - it'll give a lot more protection than the tin 560 ones.There are a couple on eBay - one at D@K and one elsewhere.

I hadn't looked at their washers, they are crazy prices £20.54 for a washer??
I wonder if they have the decimal point in the wrong place or it's per 100 washers?
Makes my points cover look like a bargain, I wonder if they have the decimal point in the wrong place or it's per 100 washer?
