xt600e parts needed if anyone has any ?

i need a few bits and pieces to finish my bike and get it through an mot if anyone has them lying about and wants to make some tokens ?

i need -
the engine guard that goes under the engine.
speedo drive that goes on the front wheel.
rear footrests
exhaust heat shield (rear)
flasher unit
rear engine mount nut & bolt
could also do with a front headlight cowl
there is also something missing that bolts onto the tank on the top but i have no idea what,all i know is there's a bolt hole and a big gap between the tank and the handlebars.
if anyone has any of these then please post on here or pm me

i doubt the exhaust heat shield will be an mot failure, flasher unit is a standard one unless your using led indicators.
nut and bolt is just that so should be easily sourced.
the bolt hole on the tank is for a plastic infill piece that covers the oil filler cap also not a mot requirement and is a pain especially as your gonna need to keep an eye on your oil level after a rebuild.
i think i might have a white h/light cowl and a speedo drive i'm off to the pub so i'll have a proper look tomorrow

Excellent mate.
Was just looking for the other bits to finish it off but would really appreciate any of the bits,I thought the proper bolt would be better as they looked like high tensile bolts.

Yup - took mine off after a service when I was checking the oil every day, and it was a royal pain to unbolt it every time. I haven't missed it. In fact, the bike looks normal to me now without that piece and the tank 'air scoops' (which fell off and were never replaced).

Funny, though - that filler piece between the tank and the headstock looks about the best-made bit of plastic on the whole bike.
