points cover interchangeability

[Matt Lund]

hi all i'm about to strip my project 1980 GS850GT engine. the bike has been down on it's right side at some point so the ignition points/pickup cover is cracked and ground away. i wonder if the 750 or 1000 share the same cover as this will open up my options for a replacement?

Yes. If you type the part number - 11381-49001 in to the website below it will list all the models that use the same part:

FANTASTIC! thanks i really appreciate it. handy to know it was used on many models. will scour the autojumbles. believe me this bike has seen some neglect! it will be built back original as too many GS' get the chop treatment and i saved it from getting just that!

The funny thing is, that cover is widely available here in the States

Heck, I've got about 3 extra if you can't find one
