Hi all, could anyone tell me where I can get my hands on a carbon look cover for the right hand side casing (clutch). As happens the classic, fell off the stand, slight damage caused dohoo!. Also any views :) on re-gearing by redusing the front by one tooth, whats the benefit and is it worth doing for that extra ooomf! Cheers Andy. :?

I've got some engine armour on the way from Creations. Mine will be carbon/kevlar but they also do just carbon.

Yea these are great, I had them on my last storm
but they can be a bit messy to fit ,but are worth the effort.

You can also buy their kit online too. There's a link on their home page.

Important note: I have the race armour on mine.
The Carbon Fibre finish is just that a finish. All their armour is Carbon/Kevlar underneath...

Good job really as this thread will proove.

Hey Joos

Have you got your bike all sorted now?

Nope stil trying to work out what to do.

It is stripped down to the raw bits. Engine Frame SwingArm box of lectrics box of plumbing box of radiators etc.

The Frame and swingarm are going off to be painted first.

Might have a word with yer man Del in Dartford about some injin work too...as it's out of the bike.

Main dilema is what to do about me busted forks, hence the Blade thread.

Need to get moving really, first track days start in April...
