Holy Cow...

   19    COVER, R. RADIATOR  19118-MZ0-000    001    $111.27    $83.23
   20    COVER, L. RADIATOR  19119-MZ0-000    001    $33.95    $26.14

There's got to be something wrong with the fiche!?!

Most of the plastic stuff on our bikes is ABS... you could try gluing the tab back on with ABS
glue from the plumbing supply store...

They ARE brittle - I nearly broke mine - just a crack fortunately. Guess they're old now...

Hope you get it fixed - glue should be OK I'd have thought..

Check with Pinwall or another salvage dealer before you buy a new one.
