fitted, well nearly anyway:

just a quick update on the polishing:

i was considering it but ive seen a few storms with black frames and its not the look im after.

have done matey but theres bugger all there tbh. all i got were 2 with info on how to do it but im pretty sorted with that would just like to see some pics on the finished article really, and what if any problems were incountered

anyone polished their frame or swingarms yet?? what were the results like and do u have any pics

just bought these - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BNIB-BILLET-REARS ... dZViewItem

i take it thats a tidy price for them

thats just the kind of thing i was looking for. ill prob go for the k&n then as the bike is used for commuting daily aswell so i dont wanna lose out on any midrange really.

[quote="Stormin Ben"]Mine were from M&P Not the bingest looking but as you can see they combine with teh bungs to keep the fairing off the road (and yes I have tested them!!) :oops: Ben its nice to know that if i send my bike down the road i can have faith in my indicators to save the ...
