not bad pil;e of bits for £100, but the tank looks to have the Firestorm logo on it not the honda wing, so you would want a photo of the underside before rushing in
That was my thoughts straight away on the tank :?

Still waiting for the bellypan as its in the post, he called to say the brackets were delayed, but I am in no hurry as its for my fighter project and will need painting to match.

Will keep you posted though Watty :thumbup:

Yeah but the £79 ones have the hole cut out for the seat lock and is shaped at rear to fit indicator holes.
The one I got looks like I will need hole cut underneath for lock as the edge under the rear light is narrower, also indicators will need to be mounted on a bracket as under tray is flush, be perfect for a track bike though.

Personally the £79 are better but 2 or 3 times the price.

Oh right, well for the money conscious cutting a hole and making a bracket isn't too bad. I'd like an undertray, but wouldn't want to butcher the standard one.

I wonder if anyone here bought one of these super cheap ones from Norwich...

I still have original guard but severely trimmed as I prefer the battery and electrics to stay put, but also like the slick lines of under tray.

It may be worth getting an old standard one to cut about rather than spoiling a good original one Jamie :thumbup:

Good idea, I'll keep my eyes peeled for an old or pre chopped standard undertray :thumbup:

This modding lark never stops does it!!
