Vaquero Chrome Tank Cover

bouson · 06-13-2012, 11:30 PM

I noticed that some people don't like the black plastic cover on the Vaquero gas tank. I went to the parts diagrams for the Vaquero & Voyager and it looks like the covers should be interchangeable. If someone has a Voyager and knows someone with a Vaquero and feels like wasting two hours they could check if the swap will work and let the group know.

The covers ARE interchangeable, one of my customers with a Vaquero has already did the switch to the Voyager chrome tank cover, looked good on his black Vaquero.

Here are a couple of pictures on a black Vaquero with assorted chrome pieces.

One odd thing I just noticed was the part numbers appear to be identical even though we know one is black and one is chrome.
I looked at both bikes on BikeBandit's OEM stuff, and they both have that item listed as 14092A, although one says "black" at $133, and the other is "chrome" for $161. Just odd in my opinion. ???

14092A is not the part number. It's just the location on the parts diagram.

For the Vaquero, the Kaw PN is 14092-0217-19U
for the Voyager, it's 14092-0116

Different part = different part number.

That makes a LOT more sense
