I had to use a thin strip of ally with some foam pads to secure my guard.

It does the job perfectly but I would purchase a reproduced item, no problem.

Seems that Steve bought all from Yamaha :mrgreen:
I got the last "mole" piece from my dealer.
Ordered 2, got one and then the part was NLA

Grab one as long as they turn up on ebay...

No Sam, just more foam strips.

Hi
If your dealer can deliver the part, I'd be interested.
And you can count on a dozen who should !
That's great news.

Don`t know how he is doing that, he has already delivered some long time NLA parts to me which were marked as NLA everywhere => brake pad "shims" 47X-25827-00 and 47X-25827-10. He has no own stock (at least no RD500 stuff) and ordered them.

If you want I can order some of them.

Fowlers Yamaha in the UK are showing the grille still available on back order but not the fixing plate.

It often takes some time that the online dealers update the status.
Had the same problem with my throttle cables.

Everywhere marked as available, when I ordered it I got the message "sorry, not available anymore".
2-3 months later it changed to NLA everywhere.

Sad to say I'm finding that problem as well :sad:
