primary chaincase inspection cover thing
« on: 01.09. 2019 20:13 »
Please can someone sell me an inspection cover? As Richard L pointed out it matches the oil cap in size so one of those would do. Hoping to take A10 to Spain 8th Sept so speedy response appreciated. Happy(?) yo pay the correct rate, whatever that is.

I think I may have an oil tank cap. I'll have a look in the morning.

Jimbo.. Bit late now but Triumph Pre Unit Tappet Inspection Caps also fit, and with a nice hexagon can be tightened well into the primary case. They also fit Longstroke A7 rocker boxes, so while not strictly the correct period part, offer an improvement on the original design and are readily available.
