CB650F and CB650R Frame Plugs

[cferg]

Hi All

I have noticed that the CB650R come with factory swing arm frame plugs. I am just wondering if any of you wonderful human beings know if these caps are the same size as the caps required for the 2018 CB650F. (They are $14 for the pair) compared to $15-20 a side.

Cheers All

Only one way to find out!!!

Have a go for the good of the forum! I loathe to pay £18 per side for frame plugs so I've gone without. But would consider these if they're less than that for a pair.

Where have you found them?

I need to find it if these guys ship
to Aus but I found them on here.

Cheap way to do it.

I did this with my old Ninja 250.

Took the top lid of a drink, drag it across the ground to make it narrow. You can use sandpaper instead of the ground.

Now I have a frame plug. I don't remember what drink lid I used.

For those of you who are interested. Yes. They do fit. Enjoy.

That's great! Could you put a photo up?

Still trying to track down the parts in Aus. Went to a dealer and the guy just popped them off the new model and put them on the old model. 10/10 fit. They never got back to me regarding availability so gotta give them a call.

Ordered some of these yesterday for the CB for £12.50, will report back next weekend when they arrive with photos and verdict.
