Re: New ride and previous ride.

Glyn,

Are the swingarm covers on your bike the Jap4Perfomance ones?

If not, which ones did you go for and how was the fit?

all Glyns carbon is Ilmberger mate..i dont think the cheaper Jap stuff is the nicer diagonal twill weave

^ ^ ^ Robs bob on mate, Jap4 use the cheap chequered weave. Everythings ilmberger.

How much did you get the tank cover for ? Was it the one form eBay ?

 

[lllN30lll]

yes bud, 250

What's the swingarm covers fit like? How are they secured? Double sided sticky pads?

Everything by ilmberger fits %100, you'll never get an ill fitting piece. Double sided 3m pads that are already affixed to the inside.

Great pic.

Have the boys in blue taken an interest in the plate yet lol? (Love it by the way)

 

[MOz]

I'm not usually a tarts handbag fan but I have to say Glyn that looks damn special. I really like the plain carbon MotoGP test bike look and that is very close.

If plod do take issue with the plate (and it really is a piss take considering your past!!) why not try to find someone to fabricate you a pukka carbon tail tidy and then get a pukka carbon plate!

 

[ekdg]

looks like a simpson bandit with a trick paint job

 

[Ducky]

Should be riding a streetfighter with that lid

 

[lllN30lll]

I'm a big fan of the Streetfighters mag mate lol, I've always had Simspons, The RX and the Diamondback, now wearing a Craft that I had airbrushed.

As for the plate, even if I had a 5 x 7 or something it would still be illegal so why not go the whole hog lol.

I never thought of it looking like a test bike. well spotted

 

[Hopper]

Lol I knew what helmet it was.

Glynn, the 90's just called and asked for there helmet back

Lol

 

[lllN30lll]

I've heard that before :triumphant:
