Side Cover or Seat Flare

[RadicalR1150R]

What have you done to close the gap up front on the "side cover" or seat flare .
The peg no longer adheres to the grommet. I'll order the grommet & in the meantime try to build up the peg with clear RTV to create more of a plug.. Maybe 3M velcro would work also,only you'd have to remove the peg.

Ha! left side no cover..yes? air snorkel to airbox.

Right side...haven't seen it in years(good riddance) got tired of trying to get t on so??? I just have the fuel lines tie rapped together and everything is in plain sight!
Remember this machine has over 250K.

Lazy...maybe but will never sell and it suits me!

You are talking about the small cover on the right no?

I don't miss it at all....

My bikes red, so its the red fairing piece that starts at the end of the seat to the rear of tank, along both sides of the bike?
that thin plastic strip?

Ah, I see said the blind man!!
No I have all the fairings except the one on the right that covers the fuel lines..about 7 " long and 4 or so inches wide at the widest.
I have replaced all the gourmets on the machine at one time or another and changed a lot of expansion nuts fasteners with hardware store stuff!!! (Like for the cooler fairings)You have to sometimes go to smaller gourmets (hole in the center) ACE is your friend there+ I have been working on aircraft for years and have a big assortment of gourmets.
Ya have to get creative sometimes!!

Every time I fiddle with the Rockster, this little cover gets harder and harder to relocate. I bet one day it'll fall off.
I noticed somewhere that Berlin only guarantees the rubber parts on a bike to last for 5 years. no longer....

Yes that's the chap ...I had forgotten what it looked like. I still have it I think some where in my spares. I live quite nicely w/o it installed. It all started when I had an issue where the tank had to come off several time in short order. Forgot to re install and one day I was looking at the machine and it startled me for a moment that it was missing..about 3 month later.

Gourmet life....
That's about right. I about lost my little fairing over the headlight while doing 85 down the dual carriage way!!! Reached up and caught it before it came completely off.
After that I have been on a mission to replace all of the little buggers!

BTW we have the same color rock!
