BRAND NEW LEFT SIDE FAIRING £140 DELIVERED......BARGAIN..!!!!
I have to give you major thumbs up for your sheer persistence in the face of adversity.. The Welsh always were stubborn buggers, much like my bunch, the Scots...
Glad you are healing and thinking about how you are going to get back on the BMW. After my crash (5 broken ribs at the spine, broken left wrist, punctured left lung, dislocated elbow, broken left collar bone) it took me 2 months to get back on the Bike again.. Everyone that knows me thought I was utterly bonkers, but I wanted to prove a point.. Stubborn doesn't even come close.
I have the R&G aero crash bungs as well as their axle spools etc and they seem very solid and well made. I thought about the AC Schnitzer stuff as well for a more "techno" look, but the R&G seem to be more solid..
Picked up some white R+G crash bungs for the s1krr and collected the new casing,from my local dealers and after finding out what had happened to me over the last 7 months gave me extra 5 percent discount on the bits i ordered,still waiting on the seat unit to come back from the paint shop as they are having trouble matching the paint..??? so either tonight or tomorrow ill be back up the garage fitting all the parts and the watsen turn signals arrived just in time,going to look around now for some new rearsets as these hp ones are crap as bmw wont sell the spare parts seperately so whats the point of having them..???? also some one tell ASV to get off their arse and make some levers for the s1krr aswell....taa
Yes i will definately be buying some GB racing engine covers,they wil be my next mod and then some new rearsets and asv levers soon as they are avaliable....got the seat unit upper peice now as i decided to buy another one as i cant be arsed to wait on the paint shop any longer...lol going to fit it all next week now as i been busy all week,also need to get some black satin barbeque heat resistant paint aswell for the tec bike cat cover as it looks quite tatty after 3500 miles aswell,,??? how every one elses cat cover holding up as im not that impressed with them to be honest.....i used the iphone 4 for the pics so it can be hit and miss on taking a good pic....lol
