Hi All
I'm still on the look out for a rear guard for my 1957 plunger, on a side note one just sold on Ebay for more than my poor old pension will stretch.

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/400829578301?ssPageName=STRK:MEDWX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1435.l2649

Any leads greatly appreciated

The Indian ones are rubbish don't even go there I have one and its totally wrong.
Just keep looking Pato or maybe the ones from Burtons in UK. I bought one and its well made its the B31/33 type but they are similar to plunger A10 and much better that the Indian rubbish.

part number 65-6862

Just a quick update, the one listed above was not paid for. Surprise, surprise, $624US is probably a bit steep

That's $816 AU. *eek* No wonder people are parting good bikes. That makes my '51 worth about $50,000.
I'll look on Sunday for you.

A mate of the seller probably got the last bid!

G'day Pato.
I saw a single type with the two tabs at the tool box but the same in all other measurements (tabs can be used or removed). The fellow from Nabiac, $250 for the rear or $450 for f&r pair. Said he has a couple.
Cheers

G'day wilko. Not sure if it was Brian I spoke to, from the National Motorcycle Museum at Nabiac. He does the swap circuit selling bits to raise funds for projects at the museum.
