Shinobi pressure plate question

M1100 · July 11, 2010, 03:33:44 PM

Were the Shinobi Pro pressure plates from SpeedyMoto ever silver/natural looking? I have a guy that has a used one for sale and it is new, never mounted, but it is silver. I don't see that as available and was wondering before I have them shipped. It is not a shop just an individual....

Thanks!

Their site doesn't show a aluminum/clear finish. There's lots of speedy knock offs out there - many times the look similar, but aren't as thick/tall as the real thing. Real ones cover most of the spring vs. Stock which covers about half.

Got/ can you get photos?

If you can hold off until tomorrow. Give Speedymoto a call.

Does look the part. If it's a fake it's got all the details of real one including the packaging.

Don't worry about me - already got one.

Thanks guys. I will hold off and call them, that is a super good idea.

That is definately a Speedymoto part. I'm not sure if they still sell them but they did in the past.

They don't currently sell that color PP, but they did. They are accomodating on special requests as well, but take their time on stuff recently, especially special requests.

So you think I'd be OK to buy it, the cover, and the bolts?

If I were looking to buy one in that color I would grab that. I have one but it's red and will be replacing it soon.

Thanks all!!! I have grabbed them and they are on the way. I might switch the caps on the springs from silver to red so they will 'pop' out a bit more, but I am stoked!! I got the plate, the sellwood cover and the springs.....

That cover looks minimal and very sweet also....

OK, so they got here today and are in perfect shape, never used as advertised.

NOW I have another question--is the pressure plate supposed to have teeth on the back? I thought it would, but it is smooth. Please tell me it should be smooth!

No teeth means it's made to replace the cover on a 6 spring styled slipper.

You SHOULD be able to use it no problem, since the teeth don't really do much on the PP, but YMMV

Bummer.... I was afraid of that. I will check with Speedymoto Monday to see what they think about using it.

If not I will have to sell it
