The eBay seller is truxmart in Nebraska, there are 12 pictures in the auction of every angle you can look at this.
They have other styles too if this one ain't yer bag.



I started aiming him to one of these, but I believe he wants the ignition bezel.

Although, while we're in the neighborhood, does anyone have a picture of one of these on their speedo?


Yeah the aim was slightly off there. I was looking for the ignition bezel and it figures that the one on the Hellrisers site is almost $55 after you pay for shipping and then an additional $7.95 for "handling". What the hell are they charging a "handling "fee for???? Who does that anymore except when you buy crap from TV so they can get more profit from insomniacs buying peeler/slicer/cleaners. If someone is in the Fremont CA area and is willing to go buy there to buy one for me I'll pay their cost for shipping it to me without paying $14.96 for shipping plus $7.95 for "handling" and then the cost of the item. Good god what are they thinking $23.00 to ship an item the size of a half dollar to me???? For a part that should cost $19 but they have jacked up to $32.95. I am gonna try a local machine shop and bet I can have one fabbed up for less that that.

Different part number and I have been told this is a different size and won't fit our bikes. Is the wrong?

Nope, you're right.

You need STR-4WM27-27-01

And they were going for $15, with free shipping.
