Anyone got one for sale?A pic would be useful so I can compare with the damaged one I've got
Thanks, Brian.
Did anyone spot the (NON) deliberate mistake?
I should have said LH SIDE GENERATOR cover - not clutch cover.
It's a bit of a saga so if you're bored already you'd better sign off but believe this could be relevant to parts other people order from them.
I ordered one from CSNL and when it arrived it differed from the cover they illustrate on their website for an ST70,which clearly shows it has the removable points section. They state in the description that "this has been superseded by a part no......" - fair enough - BUT don't mention the substitute part is a one-piece cover without the removable points section. From the illustration they use - obviously copied from the original Honda parts manual - I think it would be reasonable to assume that only the part no; has been changed. I've had a real hassle with these people and pointed out that their misleading and inadequate description that doesn't tie up with the illustration could be breaching advertising standards (if they have any in Holland).It's a suppliers responsibility to supply parts as described and I don't care if they deal with zillions of bits for everything Japanese on wheels - they have got it wrong!
I'll accept that if Honda don't make that exact part any more they can't supply but their misleading description is inexcusable and needs addressing.
Anyway I'm desperate to get an original ST70 LH engine cover with the separate points cover to honour a commitment to a friend so if anyone 's got one they don't need in serviceable condition please let me know - fair price paid. I'll be at the Saffron Walden Show August 16th so could met up there
Thanks guys and hope this episode may help others
