    How hard are these to fit to the blade, I fitted one to the zx10 and it was a doddle, it just hooked on to the top of the radiator and bolted to the bottom using the original bolt, but the one that's come for the blade doesn't seem to hook over the top. instead it's come with cable ties? and how much of the body work do I have to remove?
    Thanks Jase.

    very easy to fit mate, i bought a r&g rad gaurd and it was possible to fit without removing any fairing, one bolt at the bottom and two cable ties at the top , job done.
    Although removing the lower fairing would make thinks easier.

    I fitted one to my ABS Blade, reasonably easy but U do have to split the Belly pan open so as to ease the side fairings apart.

    Fitted it this morning, bit of a ball ache ,what's the deal with all the little tabs for the v piece???? I thought one of these has got to snap, but managed it without breaking any, and as for the cable ties you need hands like Jeremy Beadle to get them sorted, but all done now and looks the dogs danglies now fitted:D

    Didn't take any mate and she's all tucked up under covers now, but once fitted there isn't much to see anyway, in my opinion they look better than the R&G stuff and considering the cost it's a no brainer, much cheaper than a new rad.

    That's sumat Honda need to work on their method of Fairing attachments!

    Fookin ridiculous idea imho, even my local Honda Dealer says they are shyte.

    The screws which go into captive rubber grommet encased nuts are an insanely stoopid idea!

    Mine siezed up and span like a top preventing me from removing the belly pan within 12 months. :rolleyes:
