HI, i have one of these fitted to my Storm.
Can you tell me why it would be fitted, what are the benefits of it. I have the original cover to fit but it wont go on because of this is in the way.

thanks in advance.

They look nice and give you clearer access to the sprocket for checking and cleaning.

Started pulling the red one apart ready to straighten and clean it up.
Runs nice and smooth so may well try it out at Brands on a track day when it’s sorted Image

Let me know, too.
If I have any news on the job front by then I might let the 2 stretch its legs.

Otherwise I can watch jealously....
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Had a bit of a clean up last couple of days and after straightening a few bits I fitted a replacement hanger, fairing panel, handlebars, front brake cylinder & lever and tinted screen. Image
Starting to look the part nowImageImageImageImageImage
