Had a look at that site fabio. Seems they just do the race bodykit. Is that what you bought? If so was it a pain to get the light to fit and the fairing etc??

Ok thanks ill have a look at that site then. No point buying them if theyre crap. Just price really that attracted me. Got to factor in a paint job aswell. That wont be cheap i guess. And no, im not trying it myself!

I had a look on david silver online and saw nowt. But never thought of ringing so ill give that a try. I mean for just a side panel you would think it would be fairly straight forward. Just thought if the whole kit was decent it would be better than getting a side panel and getting the whole lot pai...

Hi guys, just wondering if anybody has had any dealing with mfs-motor.com? they have fairing kits for the storm but dont really know if they would be good quality. Im in the process of restoring and need a right hand side fairing, before i get it painted. But these guys are offering a full kit for £...

Thats a great idea. Never thought of that! Every day is a lesson. Appreciate that dude!

Good stuff thanks guys. Ill do that and let you know the outcome. Whilst im here have you guys got any tips for taking the swinging arm out as the crash broke my rearset (brake lever side) so not really sure how to secure the bike whilst i take it out. Got nothing to hang it from in my garage.

Ah right i see. I shall clear that out aswell. Thanks guys, this is why this forum is awesome! Could there be any fuelling or air issue in the wet?

The only thing is last tim...

Also is the rear tail unit available? Thanks.

Im afraid not mate, I have a much faster yellow one!

Yeah it is (to me) a big job but I would feel more confident in taking on again, its all about taking your time and checking what youre doing Ill be leaving mine alone for a little while now. Just need to adjust the chain a bit, touch up a couple of stone chips and then ill wait for the weather to g...

Yeah I feel a bit better about doing jobs in the future although I feel so much better when someone's there to help.

Good to know that the forum is as strong as it is and people are willing to help.

Once again thanks Gabi, much appreciated
