This Mk2 project takes more time than I expected. Could not resist to get other bike last month. I got H**** CBX! :shock: Not just one. Two! :oops: 550, indeed. Yes, CBX 550s. :wink: People ask me why CBX and why 550! Well, I will send these CBXs back to Japan next year. One may go to my brother's ...

Chances are another model motorcycle uses the exact same part... the plastic piece was real common on a number of bikes, CB750F2 rings a bell.

And yes it is held in buy the plate and two screws, if your wasn't then someone else did not put them back in.
