Wanted a set from Markland,that have the Kawasaki logo on them, but I knew they were obsolete,and was looking into some aftermarkets, and was having the dealer look into some that might fit the Vulcan line.
Got a p.m. from Carl last week,saying that he came across a set of oldies ,and did I want them. YES please send them to me, was my answer
So I got my "care package" in the mail couple days later.
Over the weekend , before getting started on the red Goldwing project , I thought I would look into installing the covers. After removing the floorboards from the bike and drilling the holes in the bottom side, I placed the covers on the floorboards to have a look,while still on the workbench, without the fasteners in place. A big gap that was present, looked bad.Part of the casting process left a point in the front corner, that needs to be removed to get a clean look.
Chuck up a cutter into the ol dremmel tool, made short work of the problem!
Took the height down a bit, and made a inward taper.Now the piece is laying flat, and has a clean look, all away around the edge.
Just a tip, if anyone else is thinking of getting these covers for their bike. Not necessary to be so A.R.
but this is how I waste my spare time "noodling" around out in the garage....., anyway ,here's a look at the install......tony 
MUCH BETTER !! , Now if we can talk G.KAP into making these
