Right i for one hate the to many stickers on screen! The preload adjusters are bing ie boy racer and them white round sticky thing behind headlight protectors!!!!! The fix hair dryer some stickers! Sell adjusters on flee bay for more than paid and buy the venture sheild headlamp kit O and i am picking here
I like the stickers but i suppose i could give up the tech 1's lol.. I'm with you on the rest mate , I didn't know you could get venture shield for the head lights . I hate the circles of velcro , looks cheap tat on the bike but i was getting chips in headlights .. Im searching for the shield kits now Cheers fella
I've got the full ventureshield on mine including headlights, I also have the special Velcro pads stuck onto the ventureshield to hold my plastic headlight protectors on, bear in mind dan the shield does not cover all Of the surface of the light! It leaves aN outline of about 4-5 mm which is to allow for heat dissipation. Hth
Ahhh right ok. all my mates have dark guards but in my mirrors i can't see them , My other mates with open headlights i can see a mile away which i want cars to see me the same which is why i got the clear guards . On my last bike i hade small sguare plastic locking tabs with large velcro like hook and loop which you could hardly see but i can't find them any where . I think i will get the venture kit for now and check out the local DIY store for alternative sticky stuff
At the end of the day worry more about the paint on the frt fook the headlamps clear chipped looks better than paint chipped venture sheild on the hadlamp bingo job done! WORD OF WARNING!! do not buy the full venture kit if doing it yourself i did and managed the headlamps and thats it fooked the kit so cut it down me self and did the the mudgaurd frt and sides fairing near rad bit tank knees! and a little bit on frt..... its a fooking nightmare to get right the bigger the sheild the harder to do have fun man haha!!
Hi there Dan the bike is looking brilliant mate. I've been looking into buying a set of those rear sets as I think they look really well made. I've got the full ventura shield protection on my bike aswell. It really is brilliant stuff. As Tony said there is an outline but it isn't noticeable until up really close.
That's what I've got ( the square locking velcro tabs) and they are superb! Just snap on and off when I want myblue covers on, in this weather the covers are off to allow me to stand out more but come the summer they are back on, I had cHips in my rrw light unit and it pissed me off no end, the ventureshield is great stuff for little dings but nowt beats the plastic protectors.
Hey Dan, any chance of some pics of the rad guard - I've been looking for one for me 09 Repsol..... Cheers - Kev
Here you go tony , Lining them up the S.E.S pens look longer but measuring from the surface that butts up against the mounting points on the frame , they only measure half a cm longer to the tip of the peg What makes them so grippy is the sharper tread and hook at the end .. Im even worried it is going to rip the rubber soles of my boots
Pretty hard to get a good shot but here you go .. Very easy to fit , 2 hooks on top and bolts on to the rads mount on the bottom . Easy to remove for cleaning to
Thanks a lot for taking the time to put them pics up dan, top man, yea they look cool, do you think the brake lever sticks out any further than stock?
The brake lever is longer and it has points for mounting so you can move it back and forth to where you want it .
All those camera flashes in the shed at night will get the men in white jackets round mate, next thing they will be setting up clear PCV tents and all sorts.. :S
The neighbours have been moaning for the last 2 years mate . Mainly about my compressor going at midnight lol . I had to sell my petrol 1 and get an electric 1 but they still moan . Tough SH*T i say lol
LOL I have a big sign mate it reads "TURN OFF THE COMPRESSOR!!!!!" otherwise it gets left on too, don't bother me but my brothers GF don't like it...lol and she leaks a bit now...lol the compressor that is..
