If you stroke it more than twice; you're playing with it.

This chain guard is not REIMO....also a German maker and supplyer.
The one on my gt750 is an outstanding piece of engineering and must have cost a fortune to make. The fact that on the casting it says SUZUKI....is just too much.
Nowadays it would not be possible to associate such name with such part.
The way it is conceived at the engine sproket end.....is almost to aorcraft engineering levels.
If anyone has an interest send an email sdress and i will send the photos.

hi!

Tyrra is (was) the name of a German distributor and manufacturer of accessories for Suzuki motorcycles.
There were next to the oil bath chain case also luggage racks, power-reduction-sets(due to tax issues) etc.

If you want to post pictures of the chain guard, you must store them somewhere on a webspace and put the link to the pic in your post here. There are a lot of services for free Pic-Upload.
