I thought the concave shot was the side where the spring would push against
It is...the part that would be the top also has a very shallow machined step into it. I just dont see the concern.
Granted I dont have the time on my bike like some of you guys but does the area behind the motor (where these carb caps would actaully be) get that dirty? Same goes for water spray (unless your cleaning your bike).
I would imagine that if you spend $115 bucks on this that your probably also ok with wiping the area down every once in a while.
I was thinking more along the lines of holding condensation over the winter or bike out in the rain while camping or parked after a ride in the rain where water would drip there possibly. Road dirt gets everywhere too. Just no reason to have the top concave that I can think of and if slightly convex water would shed off it instead of puddle. You would still need to wipe it off even if convex since aluminum does mark easily. I'm sure they are coated so wouldn't be an issue right away. Plus as others have said they are just not my taste. I wasn't trying to knock them or anything just making an observation of a possible draw back to the design.
I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains. Eat right ,Exercise ,Stay fit, Die Anyway!
