Frame hole plugs/caps/covers.
« on: June 17, 2020, 07:03:23 PM »
I did a search for this and came up empty. I am wanting some frame hole plugs/covers/caps. Not really sure what they are called so I've attached a photo with item circled. The one in the hole on the left side now was some sort of plastic bottle cap painted black. Not cool.
I have a nice Rizoma set on my Z1000, but my web sear h is coming up empty. Any help would be appreciated.

I want to say that one of mine fell off and I got something from the local hw store....   But memory being one of things that's not solid anymore I can't guarantee that I did that.
