left side battery cover for 83' GL1100

[Buck]

im looking for a new battery cover, mine is on there, but a little busted up and being held on by zip ties, i want to get a new one before i paint this thing. ive found a few on ebay, but im not entirely sure on which one i would need, yet alone want to pay the price some of them are wanting.

Just keep hunting Buck I eventually found both for the Rats Nest on eBay for $50 unfortunately they were in Canada so it was another $40 for shipping. I am pleased as they were the right color even though 1 tab is broken but it finishes off the bike .

yeah, im not worried about color, just as long as its not broken, im planning on repainting it

also, does anyone know if the aspencade and the interstate side covers are the same size and interchangeable?

 

[joedrum]

yes there the same

 

[Buck]

yes there the same

so as long as its an 83 model, it will fit all 3 models? awesome. good to know, thanks

The 81 side covers I have fit my 83 so I'm pretty sure all years 1100 will fit, 80-83.

thanks, hopefully when the grave yard opens on monday or tuesday, they will have one in there i can get now that i dont have to worry about it being the right model.

It would be nice to have a grave yard local to me... closest one is out in the Western part of PA.

well, dont feel to bad, every time i went there for something for the maxim all the parts i wanted or needed were taken. i think out of the five years of going there i only got 2 things from them, and one of them was some ugly highway pegs

Ive been monitoring Ebay for a while looking for a "left" side cover also and they are out there for some pretty stiff $$. Whats with the heavy cost fo a left side cover vs not so bad for a right cover? In case you haven't noticed! Almost a better deal to buy a pair than just the left and just keep the extra in inventory? There is still one cover on Ebay that has been there for a while and it looks to have been run over by a truck and they still are looking for $25+ and a lot of shipping!
Just an observation .... Crowe .... :Egyptian:

What is stiff $$$ in a supply and demand industry?

I ended up paying $50 plus $40 shipping for the 2 covers for the Rats Nest and there was one damaged mounting pin. That said they were my color and finished the job. They were the best price that I could find anywhere at the time.
