kick start blank cover

I know APE do these, but the shaft needs to be removed in order to fit.
Anyone know of a blanking cover, that will fit with the kick start shaft still in situ ??
Before I have one machined up .

Quick fix........

Just grind the shaft off to give enough clearance.
That way you can leave the shaft in situ.

z1 do an alloy version. The rubber ones do the job well enough if you can't be bothered to split the cases.

OK while you asked for it , check these out .
They may not do for your kickstart shaft but i'm sure you can think of other uses :wink:
