I bought parts from Ron Ayers to fix up my wrecked bike.  It was about a  25% discount.  I've have also ordered parts from BikeBandit and they are only about 5% discount but give much faster service.

If it's a small order, I use BikeBandit and on larger orders Ron Ayers.  Both have the parts fiches to locate part numbers and check prices.  For one small part like that it might be quicker to get from a local dealer.  

That small cover on the right just covers the ignition trigger coils and no oil should leak from there.  Water might leak in and cause problems over time riding in the rain though.

$50 will get you a honking billet cover that is made to survive the A-bomb ... Found 1 under pile of crap today... I Thought I sold all of them ... well I guess not... Pics... damn I aint posting pics... think big fat aluminum thing... Racing... of forget it.. its too heavy. Also have a couple of fork braces... 1/2 inch thick billet as well... and you drill holes for the forks... cos I cant drill them... they may not fit each bike... its all a little  different ... Do a cardboard transfer. $40 for that.
Cool.

Ron Ayers rocks...I've gotten parts from them a bunch of times.  It's easiest if you get the part numbers from a dealer first, and then supply them to the RA website.
