  1. Thanks to my purchase of a cheap carbon rear bumper I now have to replace my new PR4 rear tyre!
    Photos to follow.
     
  2. Could replace that brake light too...the flashing is mega distracting! Also it kept on coming on when not when you would be braking, dunno if its a switch or you were resting your foot on rear brake and setting off the light
     
  3. Probably me with my foot on the brake....so scary!
     
  4. Buy shite pay twice is my motto.

    Try dp , ilmberger or cm composit for quality pre preg carbon or qb carbon for cheaper wet lay carbon.
     
  5. All my stuff is from carbonworld.de

    It's pretty good from what I can tell
     
  6. i blame who fitted it and how they fitted it,.....
     
  7. No issue with the fitting. It is square with the tyre in both planes and has an even gap the same as the OEM.
    The issue is the actual bumper near the tyre is too flexible and at some point has been drawn to the tyre.
     
  8. when you fitted it you must of thought ....thats too thin and weak and it'll flex and rub against the tyre..il throw it away lesson learnt buying cheap tat,

    or

    its fitted too close...the tyre grows tall on acceleration..

    :upyeah:
     
  9. Any pics yet..?
     
  10. :upyeah:Did you see the slow mo footage of the moto GP practice and the front wheel gaurd flexing like mad on the ducati, touching the front tyre. Ducati must have used the same chinese carbon
