My driver's side cover is broken on mine, and I really need another one. We have painted the tank and need to paint the covers. Plus if any one has an extra set of Left and Right covers I would like to buy those also. Why have two sets of covers you ask? I have two tanks/two different colors and I would like to have the option of changing them out. Thanks.

If you already have one, you can repair it with super glue and baking soda. Bonds super strong and builds up so you can sand/file/grind to shape, then paint it. Use liquid super glue (not the gel kind), and apply just a drop. Then dust it with baking soda. It hardens instantly! Add a drop of glue, then dust with baking soda. Repeat until you're satisfied with the volume/size of the repair. My entire latch on my left side cover is made of the stuff.1980 XS850SG - Sold

Mines done the same way. Been that way for over two years now and works just great. Worked down just like working plastic once it was built up. I figure I could even have painted it if I had needed to.Cy
