all right di(khead
have you ever heard let alone seen a magnesium cover take an impact & not crack?
I'm sure it has happened, but the point it thats its fragile
& the real point being, people can do what ever the F they want to their bike
what world is it OK to rag on their sh!t?
he didn't ask what gays think of clear covers
he asked where can you get one

but your point..
yea plastic, no one would use that for any kind of high stress or impact points, right?
like weapons, guns, race cars, all aircraft including hyper-sonic jets
yea your right, genius

all right di(khead
resorting to profanity is the sign of a very low IQ
have you ever heard let alone seen a magnesium cover take an impact & not crack?
yes they normally scrape not bust completely. i have seen hundreds of rashed up magnesium covers that still held oil.

& the real point being, people can do what ever the F they want to their bike
not if i were president

what world is it OK to rag on their sh!t?
mine
he didn't ask what gays think of clear covers
so you are a gay basher now huh, people can go to jail for that now be careful. i bet you are a christian redneck too arent you
he asked where can you get one



but your point..
yea plastic, no one would use that for any kind of high stress or impact points, right?
like weapons, guns, race cars, all aircraft including hyper-sonic jets
guns dont use plastic they use a polymer agent that is stronger than plastic. here is  link that i think you may find helpful http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer. i work in the gun industry so i guarantee you i know more about this than you do. also as an added fact the polymer pistols use steel in at all the stress points. race cars also use carbon fiber and polymer as well as hyper sonic jets.  the clutch covers in question are made of lexan. although lexan can be made to be very tough, in fact very thick sheets of it are used for bulletproof glass, the stuff used to make clutch covers are not that thick. they cant be and still fit the bike properly.  whats more the metal covers are made to shear down in the event of a low side. the hard lexan will crack and break immediatly.

yea your right, genius

i usually am, and my last IQ test scored in the 180s so i guess i am a genius arent I. so junior take your noob 34 posts somewhere else ok. let the big boys play and you go find something else irrelevant to whine about.

As far as I am concerned he can do whatever he wants to his bike, but think about it this way.  It looks like the part is about $250-$280 bucks...Sounds like enough for a really nice weekend on the track!!  After all, isn't that what these bikes are really good at?!?!

Thanks guys! You just made the last 5 mins fly by!!! It's almost lunch!

You have to come to the realization that there are all types of riders out there with diff thoughts and opinions. Some like to perform well and some just like to look good and give up that edge. I personally am into the performace side but have many friends and riding buddies that like the show look. I have just come to the realization and accepted the fact that I need to stop every so often for them to catch up.

Bax, although you have great product knowledge and a mind for performace, you can kinda come off like a douche bag some times. Don't get me wrong, I like your post and sence of humor but come on bro, the guy was mierly asking a "where to find" question... FlightMedic, really? You see the guys signature line! Do you expect anything less from Bax?

Sorry to break up the catfight... Just trying to plant a rose in the center of a war zone I guess...

Well flatlander i was thinking I LIKE TO DRAG RACE!!! The reason i am looking in to one is because im running N.O.S. & a lock-up. This would be great for making adjustments to the lock-up W/O the need to tear apart my bike!

Do ya like to win Wille?
It seems like the torque show is pretty much over after fourth with these bikes. Then again the quarter is not my fortay. Does gearing the hell out of it make up for it? Or does Sir Mixalot know the shit?  I'm joking with you. When the front goes to silding I get all girly so what the hell.
I'm a hack at what I do with mine.
Well, except the having a good time shiz.
