I am struggling with what to do with my sprocket cover. I thought I would solicit opinions. Here is what I am thinking, either a Bonneville sprocket cover, which I think may look a little out place with the peg hangers..or grind down the top and bottom rib on the existing, and get it re-powder coated. I mocked up both here... http://www.bonnevilleamerica.com/photopo...t=1&cat=500

Check out Tinman's sprocket cover, you'll want one.
A word to the wise is not necessary. It is the stupid ones who need the advice.

Cool!!! You're right Dinqua, I want one! Can I get it chromed? (that's my favorite color)

Yah! That thing is SWEET Tinman. Grump, you cracked me up.
My peg hangers were a warm up to taking on that George Foreman grill looking sprocket cover and just as soon as I figure out how to crank up the power on the little laser kitty chasing toy I'll be etching mine too.... NOT! lol
Has that been chromed Tinman or polished? I am guessing chrome, if not that is amazing.

Wow, Tinman, that's about the only side cover I'd give up my standard Bonnie cover for, but chromed, of course.

Thanks guys. No I didn't do it with a dremel so keep your Corbin on the bike.  And yes it's chromed. I wish I could get my polishing to look that nice

The Bonneville/T100 cover looks decent, not as clunky.
