Left hand engine cover

[Sowiuk1]

Hello folks,
New to the XS650 world.
My 1978 Yamaha XS650SE is currently being transported to me as I write this. It is however missing a left engine cover. Does anybody have one spare, know of someone selling one, or where they might be readily available. I'm not having much luck online.

Thanks
Ethan

This? It won't be that difficult. I found several FS in a few seconds. Hopefully you can find one on your side of the ocean.

I'd offer you one but shipping might be a major killer!
Unless that plane in the picture is headed across the pond soon!

Thats the one, yeah they're definitely more available in the US, might have to get one shipped over, or even collect one the next time my dads over in early December.

My dad will be in the US in early December. If I haven't found one by then I might take your offer, then the shipping will only be internal and he can bring it back in his suitcase.

Try to get one with the stater cover plate on it. They sell separately for stupid amounts on $'ssss.

Also a cover from 76 -83 are the same. 74/75 are the same but will need to be filed on the top plate above the front sprocket. On the 74/75 engines that part is square where the 76-83's were round. Not a real issue just be aware
