Wow, that's a beautiful looking scoot. The axle covers aren't an issue, suggest if you buy the scoot, put some blue loc-tite on the screws when you install the new axle cover. You can get the covers off Ebay or one of our vendors on the site...:2thumbs:

:2thumbs:Sweet bike. Take it for a test ride, replace the axle covers and screws and ride it often.

Some TP's (but not all) have been known to have some misalignment issues in regards to the roller rockers and the valves, causing the valve guides to wear. Mine did. Finally went to S&S roller rockers/rocker boxes. Great looking scoot! Axle covers are just cosmetics and can found on Ebay. You may want to ask and see if any upgrades have been made. It's obvious the pipes, passenger peg assembly, wheels and air cleaner have been added. Does it still have an EHC or WirePlus? Test ride that sucker and see/hear how it runs. That's the only way to know for sure.
