Early research (a paper template held against the caliper) shows that the caliper covers for the Honda Shadow VLX will fit our bike and J&P has them for $16.00 US and not the $50.00 US Triumph is asking (the calipers are made by the same MFG and may even be a direct replacement but did not confirm this)
Hey Boss,
Any confirmation on this experiment? I'm always interested in saving a few $'s on my chromo fix. $68 a pair for the Triumph variety are well beyond reasonable.
Thanks,
Tom
I took the plunge and ordered the covers from J&P. Don't quite fit, unless you want to get real aggressive with the Dremel. They are basically the same size and shape on the front, but don't fit the sides. You'd have to really cut off quite a bit of material to make them fit around all the bumps and curves.
That is very disapointing...(they'll be going back...as soon as they get here)
