While moving my bike around this last weekend I dented and scratched my left side cover on my 78 xs650 standard.

I'm looking for a replacement, I believe 75-79 standard covers are all the same. They are metal, no holes, with a contour following the decal in the picture.

Color doesn't matter, I'll have to buy a new (650) decal and have the guy who painted my tins repaint it. I don't need that latching knob as mine is OK.

I see them on eBay for about $30 shipped, but hoping I can do better here from one of you chopper guys who didn't us them on their build.
 
Thanks DogBunny, bummer that you didn't have a left in good shape, wish we could have done some business. Oh Well..

Still Looking.
 
I have a set in black that's in good shape. No dents. Came off my 77. I would only sell as a set though. Currently traveling but will be back home on saturday
 
Hey Gary, finally got this finished.

Top is the dented cover. Hard to see from the pic, but it goes the ribbed outline. Would have been impossible to fix 100%.
 
Thanks again.
My list of bikes I want is very long. When I'm done with my wife's cb750, I'd like to restore an old two stroke, either an RD or gt750/gt550.
