Re: valve cover damage
Oh, not nice, we had too many of those come into the shop. Nearly all had crashbars installed.
Ask the Indians what happens when you don't control immigration.

Re: valve cover damage
While we are on the subject of valve damage", this was my R80/7.
I had a little incident with a logging truck in Tasmania in the early 1980s.
I was a good bike
