Side cover rubber grommet

[stevenolts]

I need a side cover rubber grommet for the oil fill or right side of the bike. Is there a recommended place to buy it. Has anyone else lost one of these?

I got in the habit of lubing the inside of the grommets with silicone grease. It has sure helped keep those things from dislodging and getting lost.

as "okf6b" said, a bit of grease on them helps but I went a step farther and put small zip ties on them all to keep the grommets in place.

I remember what a pain it was at first; to remove and reinstall the body panels. Then I applied to food grade spray silicone spray to each one; one day when I had my bike apart for a deep surgery event. Now, it's a joy to pop off the panels and replace them. No more lost grommets (or broken grommet studs).

They're now slicker... than slick Willy doing the hanky panky in the Oval office...
