    What company did you buy carbon fiber side panels? After installation there are gaps? The eternal problem with this. Share a photo after?

    I bought them from one of the members on here - apparently they’re RSR Moto. I’ll pop a photo up when they’re on! (Which might be a while, as the bike just horrendously failed it’s MOT)
    :(:(:(

    Apparently the rear wheel is distorted enough to fail an MOT, and the brake light switch on the front is flickery.
    So I need to source a second-hand set of wheels for an '08 blade :( going to be sat in the honda garage (Doble's in Coulsdon - seem v helpful) for quite a while i fear!
    My worry is just that a set off ebay might be no better than the current ones...

    Can you not mount the big plate down about 2 inches?

    There'd been a few wheels on here a while ago. Try PMing @vic_ster51 , he might have some to suit.

    Haha I would if i could... unfortunately only the centre bolt has vertical adjustment, which is useless because you're restricted on verticality (i'm sure that's a word) by the bolts at each side!

    I have PM'd! There's another member with a set i'm chatting to aswell so hopefully won't be too long sans bike.

    If you're seeking honest opinions I shall remain mute for fear of upsetting you.

    Woops, I guess I've made my point.;)

    180 ish miles, 1 stop at the coast for bacon butty and a cuppa (actually had 2 cups as butty was delayed so they gave me an extra cup for free), 1 stop for an ice cream, 1 full stop for fuel, and 1 stop for a coffee. Knees ache like a bugger now but was a great day and only had one road that had been ripped up which made a nice change :)

    I'm doing some maths here. 180 divided by 30 equals 6 days riding for me!!:D

    That's a good effort though. Is it a regular route you've made up or a random adventure?
