Title: Missing Top Plate Bungs
Post by: Mark W on July 12, 2011, 09:07:36 PM
I have been riding without the top box for the last couple of weeks, I have gone to put it on tonight for the significant other only to find that one of the little rubber anti vibration Bungs is missing, can these be bought as spares?

I don't normally ride around with the top box on and the four rubber bungs have always stayed in place. However I put the top box on for a ride out and a couple of days after I had taken the top box off I noticed that two of the four rubber bungs where missing -  >:(  >:(

However I noticed that on one of the rubber bungs was stuck to the underside of the top box and the other was on the garage floor. It would appear that the bungs had stuck to the top box, so on the few occasions I use the top box I always check the bungs are still in place when I remove the top box.

I would imagine that you can get some replacements either via a Kawasaki dealer but I would also look at Givi.

Kind regards

Steven

If it's a Givi plate the answer is yes .

Learnt the lesson long ago - spot of glue when you refit them and they will stay in place.
