Anyone know where I can get some engine case guards?

Man, my bike tipped over in my driveway and scratched up my left crankcase cover and the Suzuki stick on emblem.  A set of case guards would have helped, but I can't seem to locate any. I already checked with srinath, and he doesn't have any left.

Anyone have any they'd like to sell?

I've been checking ebay daily, but haven't gotten lucky.

Thanks.

I have some that I was going to put on my bike... but now I can't bring myself to remove the fairings!  (I like them waaaay too much).

I got mine from srinath

Thanks guys.

I really like the ones from twisted throttle, but wasn't expecting to pay $110. Ouch! I was thinking the Suzuki ones were more like $50.

TarzanBoy, do you want to get rid of yours? I have a 98 GS500E. Since you have fairings, I'm assuming you have a GS500F? Will they fit my bike?

Thanks for the replies.

I did a Google search for you and came up with these:

Engine Case Guards - GS500

They're the same that I have on my bike.  Been told they don't make them anymore, but if you use their dealer locator and get lucky, they're listed for the $50 I paid for them 3 years ago.

The page says its for 1999-2002 bikes, but don't know why they wouldn't fit on other years.

Errr.... no.   :nono:   Looked at all the dealers and not one of them carries the
item anymore. There are other engine case guards for other bikes, but
none stocked for the GS500

stingray

so no 1 makes actual case covers, just some bars that go around the case covers?

I got these off ebay for $39 a while back, they fit my 98 okay but one of the bolts wasn't exactly the right size.
