Re: Frame covers
I used black HPV (?) silicone to fasten mine (same with carbon engine case covers)

Re: Frame covers
Yeah you could try the same tape that they use to fasten camera mounts. It's 3M VHB. Industrial strength acrylic double sided tape. You can buy it on e-bay and it isn't that expensive.cybercarl wrote:Heavy duty double sided sticky pads.

Re: Frame covers
I'd give them a proper trail fit first! Mine were a nightmare to fit, had to cut and reshape them in the end!

Re: Frame covers
Carbon ones that recently cropped up on eBay! They certainly weren't just a buy and fit job! However after a bit of work they look mint! I'll grab a photo!

Re: Frame covers
Are they stomp grips on the tank or another brand. Have you got a link please. As MArt says, very nice looking bike.

Re: Frame covers
stomp grips don't make a kit for the storm, you can buy a universal kit and cut it to the shape you want, easy to find on ebay. not sure if these are stomp tho, might be gripster.
HEY YOU GUYS!!!!!!

Get some carbon fibre engine covers and it will look great,nora2004 wrote:Here we are, all done!
noticed those replica frame covers don't have the cut out for the VIN like the proper ART made ones
do you need to have the VIN plate on show for an MOT?
