I also use another source which is boats net or some such that shows other parts that will work. I just do not have that link handy to post. Good luck.

I couldn't find good fork covers either.

Two of mine (one on the XS750 and one on the XS11) are eBay purchases from XS850s. The XS850 didn't have the reflectors. I carefully located and drilled the holes, then bonded a nut to the inside. It is so close to the correct part you would never know.

There seem be more 850 fork covers in good shape. One of the ones I purchased was actually NOS (not this one):






Good luck!

Thanks for the excellent info guys!

Possible fit

[Cobia]

I have one

Hi Blank Slate,

I have one of those in very good shape, but it doesn't have the reflector holes/bolts/mounts. I'm willing to let it go for a reasonable price.
I'll look for it and let you know tomorrow.

I bought the one on ebay in the post above yours, it's for a xs650. it does have reflector holes but no reflectors. if it doesn't fit on my bike I will PM you for your piece. what bike did your cover come from?

[jetmechmarty]

XS650 forks are 35 mm. XS1100 forks are 37 mm. I'll be a bit surprised if it fits.

I've made one from a smaller XS fit, you need to enlarge the holes for the fork tubes and the center to center spacing is different, so it may need some bending/massaging. It will look good and you won't be able to tell the difference if done correctly. I also had to heat up the plastic emblem to give it a slight curve.

Thanks Phil. I'll keep that in mind when I take 'em to Mack's place.

still looking for this part. the one on ebay was too small like jetmc predicted. and I really don't trust my metal bending skills to warp it from 35 to 37 mm.

sent pm to andreas as well.
