I offered the mounting points up to the fork leg, and surprisingly not far off but nowhere near the OEM part. The sides are noticeably longer vertically. Won't know for sure until I get the bike fully reassembled.
2 lovely looking bikes right there... im not a big fan of the carbon look at all and every bit of carbon i have on any bike is painted, with the exception of the front guard on my ss. i think it looks well with the yellow. otherwise im with @Arquebus in that i think it should only be on the cans.. oh or a clutch cover in carbon is acceptable!!
schneaky!!!! very schneaky!!!! i have nearly a full spare kit incuding tank that i will one day do black also!!! just need the side fairings. oh and a fuel pump ... there was some bikini fairings on ebay for 80 quid that i keep looking at but they would probably lead me to taking the engine out to repaint and that would lead me to getting it stripped down and that would lead to mods while it was apart...lol.. i have it bad....
nice! you seem to have an excess of fairings there... albeit rhs ones! you have trouble on left hand corners?
QB Carbon do not do a good front mudguard for the SS, I had three from them and they were all touching the tyre at the back. They blamed the mould.
I believe there was a member on here made carbon fibre panels etc think he was based in hull he built up a ss with an 1100 motor if I remember right
The OEM mudguard will sag over a period of time. You can see the OP's one has already started to do it if you look at the sides in the pic above. This causes the mudguard to either trap stones between the tire and the inside of the guard, or it will touch the tire. Unfortunately if the back of the guard touches the tire, it can get grabbed on the trailing edge and then you have a problem because it either wears the trailing edge away or it gets shoved up between the forks. I cured the sag on mine.....not hard to do if you have the right bits and pieces.
