But couldn't resist an awesome V twin like this...:thumbup

I was of the same opinion when this model hit the streets a couple of years back...but now I have one I think it's a thing of beauty:inlove

Did toy with the idea of carbon covers but then again you can have too much carbon...don't you think:lol:lol

Very very nice. I've saved a couple of the pics and comparing with mine side by side.......indecision, indecision.

How do the carbon panels fit onto the frame/swingarm and are they a 'snug' fit, I couldn't be doing with any annoying rattles...not that you'd hear much with it running:megaphone.

Also where did you get the bits from? I've seen frame covers but nothing for the swingarm!:cheers

Silicon them on, they are a perfect fit, i got them from Polidom, they are not finished though, you need to clear coat them
