    Its a Carbon front sprocket cover . Not exactly rare i know but this one leaves the sprocket on show , ( like the Nicky mod for 07's )

    This is the Ebay pic

    So it curves around the front of the sprocket , Looking at it in the above pic is the side that butts up against the engine

    It would fit perfect and look very race bike , However the coolant pipe is in the way ?

    Do Samco hoses route in front of the sprocket in a different way to the OE one ?

    I won it for 14.95 . It does look great held up to position , just can't get it on properly . I think if i remove the hose and fit the guard , then put the hose back on then all will be fine . Its worth a shot i guess
