KLE Bash Plate

Hi,

I am looking for a bash plate for a 1994 KLE 500, I acquired the bike without one. If anyone knows where I can get one secondhand or new please let me know.

I have done a bit of googling, but it has not turned up anything particularly useful.

Regards

Andrew

KLE bash plate

Hi all,

my 2006/2007 (ie facelifted model) shows the bashplate as the same as reported above: P/N 55020, no post designator numbers given on my listing.

For anyone interested I have the parts list as soft copy, about 2 MB. Majority of parts between the "two" models are identical. The face lift mainly changed the nose and air filter intake snorkel.

Hope this helps.

Shaun
