    Hi everyone I know Remal Dan have crc fairings . If anyone had not tested them yet I'd recommend putting 2 fixings in the rear of the tank/seat base fairing as when at mallory it rattled about so 2 little screen bolts she's solid !

    My seat height has seemed to rise slightly anyone else notice this ? ImageUploadedByTapatalk1364932323.469173.jpg

    Cheers for the heads up mate, have been thinking about doing this, got a few loose ends to tie up so I'll add that to the list for next weekend. What size tap did you use? Got a few spare screen bolts. Cheers

    Remal/Wedgiewolves have you both fitted the race style airtubes? Remal I know you have, wanted to know whether or not you unplugged the electrical connectors that were on the stock tubes from the loom when you did so? Cheers ps sorry or hijacking thread.

    Pics will be good of underneath mate. Thanks Dan

    Yeah I used the Airtubes when pushing them into the rubbers in airbox put a bit of grease or silicone spray . spray on tubes though then push in . right one fitted nice left one was a bit of a pain wouldn't line up with opening in front so had to use a cable tie to hold in place . Yeah you can leave those unplugged mate won't throw up a light I removed solenoids Altogether There is one long thin rubber tube on left hand side leads up frame this goes to throttle bodies stick a golf tee or a bolt and cable tie .everything in front of that can be removed buddy

    Ah no gutted for that awesome paint job! Still need to drill the upper cowl fixing points before having the whole thing fitted, that's what I thought compression on the suspension under braking squishing everything closer...

    I'll dig out a pic of mine with belly pan fitted see how it compares.
