Has anyone ever used a drilled sprocket cover from a Scrambler or Thruxton on an America? They look similar but I didn't know if there was a hidden "oops" involved. Thanks to all.

Well the T100 cover can be adapted very easily so perhaps the Scrambler or Thruxton can too.

I installed a "68" cover from the bonneville.A bit of grinding is needed to a small area where the bonne cover hits the america frame.simple really and if you dont have a grinder its not to big a job for a good file.I have a thread on this site with pics .

I'm pretty sure they work but you will need the longer bolts.....

You mean like Dave's?

As far as I know, he had no problems.

I believe he has now...changed his sprocket size..and the stealer had to issue him with a warning?
