Swing arm end cap

My swing arm end caps on my xt660x 2006 have become nice and rusty due to them being made from steel.
I decided to have a bash myself and create new ones that will last forever (from aluminium).

This is due to only being able to source the same old rubbish from yamaha or alternate order them from a site outside UK at �35.00 each so here goes.


I'm having a new tyre fitted over weekend and going to install my mod to my bike.
If successful I'll post the before and after pics, however for now below is a pic of one of my new plates, with a drain cut out and a bolt with nuts threaded through to illustrate what it should look like when on the bike.

See what you think
