Kawasaki Interceptor Cover

[Gilson435]

Sorry guys this has nothing to do with an Interceptor BUT it does have to do with a rare find on a cover I just happened to be browsing through EBAY and found a new, factory, in the box, never been installed cover for my 73 Gilson 435   I was the only bidder and got it for the opening bid price!    I know Interceptor stuff is rare but I never see anything listed for a Gilson....   So you just never know what might show up

 Wow, Gilson435, there can't be too many original covers like that left in the world.
I trust the eBay ad had a little more information than this recent ad for the Kawasaki cover.
 That still slays me a little bit....
 I don't own a Corvette (wish I did), but it would be like me posting an ad on Craiglist:

1963 Corvette split window  StingRay.....

And then taking a picture of my garage.....with the door closed...LOL

Maybe I will miss out on some great deals....but I needed a LITTLE more information.
Congrats on finding that cover!

Hey guys,

Got a response from the seller......he says he never opened the box, doesn't know the condition of the cover or the color.....

I gotta say i'm happy he sold it to someone else.......   

 Gilson, happy to hear about your find...that is indeed a very rare item.....sometimes things happen for the right reason...well done !!

PS Today, I wrote a long..... cry from the heart e-mail..... to Kawasaki Canada in hope of getting some info on 550 covers, the part number and the letter following it....will let everyone one know if they respond........Take care..

Hello I didn't get lucky either with that cover!!!!!  Bummerr...  I called & emailed & tx quit a fews times saying sold I wanted it but no reply till over a day later just saying sold.  I was just gona buy it and worry later what it fit and yes that crossed my mind to why not a picture of the cover. I still would have taken a chance.  I hope somebody got lucky and it turned out good for them.   Still looking you never Know

Well the cover was new and blue with white lettering.  I got a email from the guy that got it and he sent me a couple pictures of it and it was definitely new. Hope he takes care of it surviving this long new.

I finally got around to digging out my OEM covers.  I forgot that I had them until this thread popped up.  I have 2 used covers, one is blue with white lettering, the other is black and has LTD printed on it.  I believe the blue one is for a 78 Intruder.  The LTD cover is in excellent condition, no rips, very little if any fading.  The blues cover is in pretty bad shape, faded and torn.  I really have no use for these, so if someone is interested in them let me know.

Yes want, PM"ed you.

Sale pending...

Yes want, PM"ed you.

I figured you would jump on that, mad Kawi strike's again!!

I had one LTD that needed a cover.

As I remember, there was no Interceptor cover per-say, they just sold you that blue nylon one that fit, however, when I had my last one, I purchased that aftermarket custom fit one(don't remember who makes them) and it fit like it was made for it.
