Nice one, certainly stands out!
Is that a TT tank cover like mine?

I think it is TT fairings with a gen 1 tail unit. Yeah the tank cover is a lot higher than normal at the seat end. I could've bought the tank to match but didn't have the extra pennies :/

I like the feel of that cover. Shame I let mine damage the tank, won't happen again.

Yeah loads of silicon on the inside of tank cover apparently solves that. I had already knackered the paint on my tank by having it upside down with a bit of fuel left in it while testing pump, so will need re-sprayed at some point

Silicone is a new one, I was going to go with a non slip matting and plenty of duck tape.

hey brucie what do you make of the Bitubo suspension?

So far so good
I'm still struggling to get 100% comfortable on the bm this year but love the mental side of the bike. Once I fitted Harris bars then I did feel a lot better but crashed the next session, probably feeling too comfortable and pushed too much, fuked up n lost the front.
That's just a general overview compared to my old k5 1000, the only downside to the Bitubo is that as I use it on the road also and it is race suspension even though wound back a bit for road as per HM Racing suggestions it's still well hard for the road. My ribs are in pain now as realised they've not fully healed lol

Covered mine with Gaffa tape, no problems....

The fit is quite tight, even had to take my tank protectors off.
