Just fitted one to my HP4. Fits pretty good; very stiff and just 4 mounting points. Will probably need to fettle a little after first shake-down run. Clears standard HP4 exhaust/cat

Only issue I had as it came with one spacer and no instructions so no idea where the spacer should have been fitted.

any problems with the side stand?

Well pleased as I had some reservations when I placed the order that it would be sub-standard.

That looks really good, certainly a better option than ?1200 from BMW :disgust:

Liking the Matt...but want gloss myself to stick the suction mount on for the camera...if the RaceFoxx works with a '12 stock exhaust the Gloss version is going on the 'list'

 

[bakedbeats]

looks really good. thanks for the feedback.

That's really nice, makes a change from the glossy ones.

Just ordered one. Is it pre-drilled?
Anything else I need to fit it? New fasteners maybe? Or heat shield?

 

[Ian_J]

It's pre-drilled for the four main mounting points. However it also comes with a small spacer that needs to be used on the lower left-hand frame mounting point down by gearchange linkage; this is the only additional hole that needs to be drilled. Other than this one small spacer all the fittings are the standard mounting bolts.

Being a one-piece carbon fibre pan the unit is really rigid.

For heat shielding Racefoxx supplly a length of self-adhesive, refelective foil that just needs cutting to size.

Ian, the bellypan looks really smart in your pics, at that price is it pure carbon fibre or is it a c/f fibreglass sandwich like you get on the cheaper aftermarket car stuff?

Great,thanks mate. That sounds pretty straight forward!

 

[Ian_J]

it's pure carbon fibre as far as I can tell. No signs of it being a composite sandwich.

does this match the bmw carbon tank side trim and side infills? thanks
