Portion of a combined motorcycle rear axle and adjuster cover

Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a portion of a combined motorcycle rear axle and adjuster cover embodying the present invention and mounted onto a motorcycle; and,

FIG. 2 is a side view of the design shown in FIG. 1.

The present application is directed to the design illustrated in the drawings. The other features of the drawings, such as the motorcycle swing arm and the back skirt portion, are not considered part of the design sought to be patented, and have accordingly been shown in broken lines.

The design sought to be patented is not visible in the top, bottom, front and rear views. Accordingly, these views have been omitted.

The side view of the cover opposite FIG. 2 is not visible in its normal or intended use because it is substantially obscured by the motorcycle. Therefore, this side view is not a matter of ornamental concern, and has been omitted from the drawings.
