--- Quote from: AshimotoK0 on August 25, 2015, 04:58:56 PM ---Is it a UK bike or USA import? If its UK and anything like the 750 UK you will find that almost all UK ones are rusted out. I recently paid over 250 quid for a NOS UK one for the 750.
The 4-hole USA one is similar but the holes are in a different position so the UK rear lamp sits at an angle. Avoid the repro ones from Vietnam, they don't look very good to me and still pricey.
Try DK if you want a USA version you can sometimes hit lucky with them and make a silly offer..
Notice you have an S90 ... nice little bike that.
Cheers Ash.

Ring John at "On All Fours" on 0114 288 9465 or e-mail john@onallfours.freeserve.co.uk. I know he has new ones for 400/4's and he might be able to source one for a 550. Pretty sure that the 550 I bought has got a new one on so someone must be making them.
Trigger:
3 hole ones can be still found but, not the 4 hole guards.

Bl**dy hell I hope he's a bit more receptive with you and less grumpy that he is on his stand at Stafford every time I have been there plus his new parts are Silver+ prices..

How about these options .. never gonna be cheap fora 4-holer. Rechrome is around 70 quid.
