    Welcome Paradoc. Your name tag would suggest you have the kind of skills a motorcyclist might not want to have to use. ;).
    Depends how blingy you want but I generally start with places like The Sportsbike Shop and work out from there. You'll get loads of advice here now you've got a decent bike :D:D.
    Cheers

    Hi
    I bought a few things from evotech for my triple R. Lever guards, rad guard, wheel spindle bobbins. Good quality stuff, but not cheap. I also bought a filler cap that doesn’t need the key to open it, not from evotech. Plenty of good stuff out there just don’t buy cheap, although I got my tail tidy off eBay for £40+.
    If you’ve fitted a tail tidy before it’s not too difficult YouTube is the usual source of information but when I got mine no videos were available.

    If you are getting an evotech rad guard, the lowers and part of the mids have to come off.

    Hi & welcome.
    Whereabouts are you based?
    If you’re local I would be happy to help out.
    there might well be a member just up the road from you to take the worry out of it

    I found just going slowly removing fasteners and wiggling the way to go!

    Just do not over tighten them when you put them back on and you should be fine.

    my 2019 is like a jigsaw frustrating but ultimately satisfying when completed :)
