I am looking for a second hand A10 rear engine bracket cover 42-4247. I don't want to buy a new one as I will be chrome plating it. So long as it is in usable condition. A total waste of time looking at new chrome covers they are absolute rubbish.

Cheers
ELLIS.

I can probably do better than that.
But let me see if my spare is good enough to chrome. Feel free to PM me if interested.

Thanks for the feedback, I think I will buy a new one from Classic Motorcycle Spares and have it chromed £34.99 pretty good value + chroming.

Kiwipom, Just bought and fitted one of these. An excellent product went straight on. bit off a faff manouvring it into postion, but I would bet that applies even to a genuine BSA item. I am well pleased

Hi a101960

If you scratch at the black paint with your fingernail you will find the paint comes off very easily, because under the paint you will find a perfectly chromed ski-slope bracket. So get scratching. *smiley4*   *work*
