Standard seat, good condition, one small blemish- a pinprick but seal beneath so doesn't let water in- it doesn't show when fitted. No tears or strained stitching around the leading edges, where these normally go first.

With the seat hooks fitted, and the little fold-out hooks for luggage.

If you just need one for recovering, I have another in not so good condition, stitching starting to go, £35 posted.

Ok, now one of the big ticket items: NOW SOLD
Ladies and gentlemen, here we have an enlarged airbox, fitted with Aluminium stacks Hand Made by GSLR from this very forum! (different lengths, to preserve the midrange), K+N filter (don't be afraid- you can make these work well) a Flo Commander, which, if you don't know, fits onto the carbs main jet air intake and allows you to adjust down three main jet sizes or up one with the turn of a screw.
Better yet, you can adjust it without even taking the tank off....

Plus a set of carbs, with Factory Pro jet kit installed. However this is jetted to suit my own Storm setup, and so I will refit the supplied kit recommended jets for your bike, whether it's standard, standard with cans, standard with cans and a filter, or tuned. Plus all instructions for both Factory Pro and Flo Commander will be included.
I can't guarantee jetting will be spot on, as you will always benefit from setting carburation specific to your engine on a dyno, but it'll be close.

Due to amount of plumbing with externalising the airbox contents- the breathers need to be fitted around the now-bare airbox- (I can tell you how, or just include the pipework I have been using, if you prefer) plus the pipes for the fuel pump I have been running, I disconnected the carb heater coolant pipes. They're sawn off on the set of carbs included, and I'll throw in the bypass coolant hose. However, if you want to run the carb heater, I have available and will throw in a spare set of the carb parts and you can easily reinstate this function.
I've never had any carb icing problems, though....it's your choice.

Airbox volume is at least 10% over stock, and the intake sound is great 8) The snorkel is also enlarged, to allow more air in to the box.
A few pics:

Happy to provide more pics and information to serious enquiries.

This lot nearly fits under a std tank- but because the lid of the airbox is also lifted 10mm using a spacer cut from a spare airbox you'll need to space up the nose of the tank about 20mm- spacers and stainless front tank mount bolts will be supplied.

This is a plug'n'play mod, everything you need is included, and yes, you will notice the difference :lol:

£250 plus P+P. NOW EDUCED TO CLEAR, £200- 15/5/2016
I don't want to think what it cost me to do, but in order to get the wife/significant other to approve the purchase, check out the cost of a Factory Pro jet kit plus a Flo Commander.....and a set of carbs (you can sell your old ones :wink: )

All of the information about these mods is in the Workshop section; I always post details of my builds as they go along, you can search on the relevant terms and find the build details.

As you can see one end has a small scuff, but if it's fitted with the scuff at the lowest point on the sidestand side it can't be seen.
These are £31 new, but I'm after £12 posted.

No, only Blade forks, it won't fit VTR's of any model.
The spacers etc aren't correct.

Might fit other Blade forks though, but pls check the R+G fitment list to make sure.
