enclosed chain gaurd
« on: 22.11. 2009 15:18 »
 Guys,

 I am currently spending the winter months getting all the hard to find bits and pieces together for my bike. My shop has no heat or lights (pretty poor as I am an electrician). Anyway, I am looking for a full chain guard, or even a reproduction if its of a good quality.

 STILL looking for a complete nacelle for the later swing arm. I had the chance to see this in reproduction- and I was not impressed by that one. The metal seemed just a little thicker then tin foil, and the over-all fit was rather poor.

 Currently, I almost have a complete bike- but every piece still needs to be restored. But thats a long way from the rusted box of Honda parts and the many missing pieces I started with.... *smile*

It would be great if somebody would remanufacter this, Im sure it would be a popular part, all the ones I come across are on evil bay and way too over priced.

In the wrong hands they are a good way of making sure the chain adjustment is not done as often as it should..... (PO of my bike has much to answer for in this area)
Mine is generally ok but the front tube for the bolt slopes (!) & the bottom opening flares more than it should , ie looks bent out. I'd love to see how it is supposed to look to check whether mine could do with being repaired or replaced..

Cheers,
Adrian
