If its what I think it is then its just fairing rubber washers. Ebay have them. I know this because I need one for my bike.

Its the rubber bung that attaches the fairing to the actual frame/engine block?

They are attached by a big screw or allen bolt. I bought crash bungs after one of mine went missing. Saddly the crash bung has now gone missing because the Thread has gone in the housing.

Oops

Well I've spent a couple of hours googling and can't find anything suitable.

What I am looking for are grommets, they fit over studs attached to the frame the fairing panels then slot onto the grommets.

The nearest I can find are "open cable grommets", but none, that I can find, are the right dimensions.

Well I need some for a Yamaha and some for a Honda.

I can't see there being that much difference between makes, the ones on my Yam have a 6mm hole in the middle and the slot, that the bodywork fits into, is 4mm.
If your Kwacka bits are the same I'm sure they'd fit!

The peoblem with the "open cable gromets" is that the slot for the body work is too small!

Yes I saw them, thanks but I need more than he's got!

After spending way too long Googling, I now know searching for:-

"Side panel rubbers"
or
"Side cover rubbers"
or
"Side panel damper"
or
"Side cover damper"

produces results, so for anyone else looking for these parts, use those search parameters!
Thanks for all the replies. Thumbs Up
