I would have thought a warning would have been better for a first offence.

maybe for a full member but not for a member who cant even post in the welcome area, and verbal abuse directed at a member will not be tollerated

To be honest if you are planning on putting a 1"x3" plate on I agree with the buy another GSXR or ZX10R comment, or maybe a vauxhall Nova or Subaru Impreza.

Going out with the tape measure in a min, a 1 x 3 is a little far fetched lol

Re: New ride and previous ride.

Good call Turt' if i wanted to read sh1t like that i'd be on other sites, like your no crap approach.

Re: New ride and previous ride.

Ordered some Ilmberger carbon frame covers because my legs and balls are getting rod hot from the heat coming off the frame lol

Re: New ride and previous ride.

Ilmberger carbon frame covers have arrived. Might even get the swingarm covers too.

They look very nice! I thought about the swingarm covers. Look how nice this looks!
Do you know who makes these? The one in the pic?

Re: New ride and previous ride.

Is that for the swingarm Greg? It's just a thought,I've seen some of the Zero limits stuff,looks very close to the BMW carbon,I've seen the air intake,but I'm not buying it really lol

Re: New ride and previous ride.

I'm going to stick with ilmberger all round, outstanding quality, not cheap though.

My last bike had %90 carbon bodywork that was mixed/matched from other suppliers and kind of ruined the whole look I was going for.

The covers you pictured are probably ilmberger again

Re: New ride and previous ride.

Yeah best to stick with the same,but I think the zero limits air intake has a better weave than the one on eBay.

Yep seen them on there Greg,would like to see these parts in the flesh,don't want them to look out of place against my BMW carbon,in the pic I posted they look pretty much the same,Greg what do you mean by limit? Are we talking cash flow lol

Re: New ride and previous ride.

Cash is always the limit, think more dribble than flow

So your after the heel guards right? I'm getting the air intake,let me see what I can do Greg

Re: New ride and previous ride.

Well they don't show the dirt ;D

Re: New ride and previous ride.

The whole point of carbon is for light weight. Replacing panels with lighter ones. Not sticking it all over the place and making the bike heavier.

I appreciate the frame ones have a purpose, due to heat and that.

Don't do the swing arm ones.
