mystery chrome radiator cover on ebay

[kwale86]

I saw this radiator cover on ebay & was wondering if anyone had seen one like it.  If so, who makes it? The seller did not know wher it came from or who made it. He did say that it plastic.  I think it looks a whole lot better than all of the stamped steel or stainless steel ones.

I have searched for this all over the internet, even highway hawk's website & still cant find it.  Is it discontinued?  All I can find are the stamped steel ones.

I believe it is discontinued.

Personally, the plastic radiator cover looks really bulky on the Magna.

My personal favorites are the ones made by DePretto Moto.

I have it on my bike and I like it a lot , no problem with rust on it and easy to install too, the real price was $=64.00+s/h.

Holy cow.. did u see that it sold for $188.50?

[MagnaMan]

For that much they could have bought the DePretto Moto metal covers.

I thought I remembered at one time they were going for around $49.00 on Ebay for a long time.  The Highway Hawk Plastic one that is.

...and that's why you sell on ebay and buy elsewhere.  When I was shopping for my Magna I saw an old bike that was ridden to DEATH!  You could smell the burning oil while you rode.  I walked away when it was overpriced at  $800.  It ended up going for $1600 even thought it had a billion miles on it, didn't start right up and was a 1978.

Yes, you need to be careful, they break easy. I had one until I got the chrome one from Ruben. I think Lowell has it now. It is a little bulky looking but does give it a better look.
