New owner looking for some parts, help?

Hi all,
Firstly if this is in the wrong section can someone let me know. I'm new to VTR's and while I love the way it rides and that sound from the cans I'm on the lookout for a couple of bits and I was hoping some of you knowledgeable folk could help?
I've seen a few bikes with aftermarket belly pans and since mine doesn't have one at all at the moment I was wondering where people get them from. Searching on evil bay brings up a few but they are close to £200 each. I have been told they can be had much cheaper but I can't seem to find any.
Secondly, I suffer a bit with weight on my wrists and would like to do a flat bar swap. I could drill the top yoke and fit risers but I've seen pics on here for clamps that fit straight to the fork legs which seems like a good idea as the bike can then be returned to standard come resale time. Can anyone advise where I should be looking for these?
Thanks in advance.

You can get bellypans from here:-

If you're after a lower fairing then you will be looking at paying more nearer to the prices you've seen,

Thanks Sirch,
That's the type I've been looking for, I have been told they can be bought unpainted from Germany but I haven't been able to find the site. Probably a bit of a newbie question but will they require brackets to fit? I haven't looked too much into mine yet but I think its safe to assume that since the original belly pan has been removed if there were any brackets they will have gone as well.
I don't want to go for the full faired option as I quite like a bit of engine on show but those belly pans look really nice when fitted.
Thanks.

I just picked up a storm. It has been streetfightered and has a renthal bar and risers on top yoke. All pre done and you could keep your own. Send me a pm if interested

Hi Stormy,
Not sure how to pm (new to the site) but I'll have a go now.
Thanks

Stormyrob. I've just tried to pm you but I don't think I've been active enough yet?
Any chance you could post the details on here?
Thanks

I think they mean sebimoto, but they're actually in the Czech Republic:

Thanks for that. 75 euros plus p+p probably works out the same as sirch345's link earlier.
At least now I know I can get hold of one at a more reasonable price than the £200 I was finding on ebay I can add it to my list of things to do.
