This has been some difficult items to find as most books have a 5yr listing of models and brands.

Anyone have any leads or any laying around collecting dust?

Stuck on the side lines for now.

And thanks again Glenn!!

UHG!!!
Unfortunately when purchased... they are unable to get it or having back order issues. Seems like the norm lately due to the year.

Well, I may have found the Left and upper right protector covers...

Does anyone have the Bottom Right cover casing protector (timming)?

BUMP!

Thanks!

Damn-it Chris that's f'd up. I'm working on my 600 for a later
race day;

You can borrow my 750 no problem if you want. Maybe you
faster on it than I was with 'No Practice time' at all.
call me.

Thanks Tom,

But I doubt if I have time to barrow something like that due to my schedule and the remaining few weeks I have left in Colorado before my move in July.

Finding these items would be ideal as it seems the ramainder hasn't been so difficult. Options are running skim with these hard to find items.

Hey dude,
I think LP Racing might have em stock:

Carbonworks (left) 53.00,
Vortex (right) 71.00

hope that helps, otherwise I'd just weld some stainless expanded mesh
to protect the good stuff.

Another source said "Yeah" sure we can get them for you..... No returned calls after my follow up leaving 3 no call back messages.... Uh, sorry we can't get those...

Seems more of the norm lately!

Just a little more discouraged!

Hey Chris,

you really need to keep a positive attitude!

the parts are out there - just matter of time til you can find 'em. You're
going towards Portland? NICE!! Beautiful mountain twisty roads to
ride - been there, done that :D . Check out these sites:

and, http://www.wmrra.com

I think your MRA racer license will get you in at TRACK DAYS (bikes)
on some pretty good tracks. After MotoGP in July I'll cruse by.

Well as much disapointment happens when trying to find hard to find parts seems endless when the only thing you really want to do is get on the track once more here and enter into a race before my departure to Portland. Well even though it looks as though i will not be able to make the double header in hastings,,,

I was able to finally find and order from Pro-Tek my two needed covers to pass tech. Not only to find the OEM cost at just over $350 but as a racer I receiived an additional 40% off not just these items, but any they seem to sell.

Thanks again to everyone who tried their dambdest to point me in a possible direction. I should be receiving them by the end of the week.
