It was only 1 i needed,cos mate had gave me a new one,pkn pyramid did replace it free of charge,but dont think it's there fault.He only had 1 at the time,cos the previous ones he sent were EXACT same as the honda ones i bought. Honda would not change the genuine oil seals i bought from them,they agr...

Wouldnt like to alter the seat by cutting,dont want to lower the seat height any, would rather raise the tailpiece somehow. Not too bad with seat cowl on,but looks fekn terrible with it removed ,the seat doesnt follow the contours of the bodywork. And to you guys thats sayin "whit are they moan...

Cheers timbo,
I should,ve tried postin the link,never thought
After my initial prob with them ,mines are fine
Hopefully the info will help others.

Be carefull not to damage anything, to double check they are indeed leaking,knock up the fork protecters , prise up the dust covers , dry in there around the seals with cotton buds or similar,lower bike and watch if oil is by-passing seals. If you said 1 new one was leaking ,you maybe damaged it,but...

You're right mate,its a pain, very noticeable. As you know ,with seat cowl on,you can mainly just see the front cut out, but with seat cowl removed,especially if lookin at right hand side with bike on side stand ,all 3 are very visible and look as if they shouldn't be there. They look too big for wh...

Just fitted bars n risers and decided to remove the seat cowl for a different look. Looking at the bike side on,along the top of the tailpiece,and underneath the seat edge,you can clearly see the cut-outs for the cargo hooks,helmet holder,and...ehhhh dunno but there is another one in front. These ar...

Hi mate, ive just done the mod,angled risers n superbike bars from "busters",less tha 50 quid delivered. With these you do need to trim the fairing with a dremmel or simillar,use a bit if tape for a guide,only takes a few mins a side. Also i cut around 20mm from bottom of risers to save cu...

Cheers stratman :D I did wonder,but left mine as is . Much better ridin position for me now,and for less than £50 delivered it was a mod worth doing. Only thing is, bars touch mirrors on full lock,and i've got an even better view of my elbows now,might buy mirror extenders from ebay(usa is cheaper)...

Just fitted angled risers and superbike bars from Busters,didnt want to cut tooo much from my fairing ,so cut a bit (20mm) off the bottom of the risers,at the same angle as they were. Problem was,with the reduced height due to cutting them, the bars are now touchin the rear of the the fork tops,and ...
