    Primary cover

    Here is my primary cover I am happy with it you can see all the inside things.
    When it's not frosted up.



    And I can open this and see more things inside.

    Nice work fella,heres my clutch cover fwiw.,totally pointless but looks ok with billet pressure plate and anodized retainers,got another pressure plate done awhile back but havent got round to fitting it.As you say things get a little cloudy but doesnt take long to clear once riding.

    So have both those covers been machined out, then had a plexiglass window bolted in? Or do they come with appropriate mounting points anyway?

    They look the fucking business (as I've complemented 98tls on his before) and may be time to start looking for a spare RC31 side cover....

    Years back a few got together on the TL site and had a bloke that worked in a Foundry in germany make 30 of them,these days guys just cut the oem plastic cover and insert window,held in with 10 screws,tried to find a decent pic but cant,originally there was no outer ring but someone decided to make one so bought it.Click for larger pic.

    I don't know how to post the pictures direct here.
    If you go: http://www.selectedgrub.blogspot.com/
    Click on the "Part I" in the top right hand corner it shows.

    Mine is glass.
    Thanks.
