Title: What is the Purpose of this Dampner

So my bike does not have this.
I assume it would be to dampen where the front fairing hits round the headlite?

I will look into acquiring one.

I did not think they would be that expensive tho.

No wonder why the headlite housing & wiring was so filthy.

Pass on that product too please as I purchased that same one and fitment is way off. See, I just saved you $50!  :undecided:

Maybe I need to bring back the ones I was selling that serve the same purpose but are not 100% factory correct?

I would think since it cannot be seen & it is rubber, that non OEM would be acceptable.

As long as it does its job.

Anyone have a spare.

I was thinking of lubing up the fairing edge with ArmorAll, then sculpting some black Painters Caulk, as this is easily removed

Also, thanks for the laminated Yamalube picture with the Yamacat.  Very cool!

Milan,

My contact said he wouldn't be able to reproduce those. I do have a great, promising lead for you though on a company that can- Clauss Studios which also goes by the eBay seller name of djia.

Guys,

I'll get some more Yamacat vintage black/ white ads laminated for sale. What size do you think most would want? 8.5x11, 11x14, or 11x17? Cost by size including shipping would be $10, $13, and $15 based on incremental size. Personally, I think the first two sizes would be best.

Cool Evans! :thumbs: I'd prefer the 11x14 since that's the size of the other Yamaha laminates I have from you.

I have 2 new dampers for sale- see that sub forum if interested.

I'll get to work next week on a small run of 11x14 Yamacat Yamalube laminates.
