    Default A-Arm cover

    Ok, can't seem to find anything on this. I noticed yesterday that the plastic cover on the right A-arm doesn't seem to be attached to anything. Its not going to fall off as it's wrapped around the shokc, but feeling around underneath it, I don't feel any clips or anything that would hold it onto the arm. Is it broken or am I missing something?

    It's likely you can't feel the screw heads, there are about 6 of them. ...get a small mirror and use that the look at the under-side with a flashlight ….just shine it on the mirror to view ….. Mike

    Well, if it had screws, I'm guessing they're gone now. I didn't rid in today so I'll have a look when I get home. Trike is in need of some work, but don;t know when I'll be able to get to it.

    I had to remove those covers several times ….. NO way they fell out, it's more likely whoever put the bike together DIDN'T put them on . …….Mike

    Ok, so it's not 6 per side, but 3? Well no big deal at the moment I guess. I'm still trying to track down tires and a couple other parts for major maintenance on this thing.
