You will be wanting the airbox next. :roll: So what are you going to do about the tank or have you got a race tank ready for the ramair.

To be honest I am only fitting them as cosmetics, not function. The bike runs fine as is so why change it for minimum gains and maximum hassle?
I have a 19 litre tank and plans for a paint job. These will complement the paint job by filling in the gap.

Are you getting the tank cut to fit them as you'll lose capacity

Yeti had the reverse done and took his scoops off and reverted the tank back to to standard

I must admit I was thinking that. It's different if your on the track and want top end. As for cosmetics I think that's a nice idea, especially at the frame end just behind the fairing. I might make some fibreglass moulds up one day that can fit that space without compromising the tank.

I will only modify the pods to suit the tank to achieve the look only.

On Carl's pic it also looks like the fairing panels have to be cut to accommodate
