Thanks...not bad for £1350 and with it i got micron cans, spare front and rear wheel/tyres, Givi rack, adapter kit to raise the exhaust's, spare clear screen, Black Tank Cover....well impressed.
Just reading alot of reviews about the Cam Chain Tensioner now and it's making me worry, i have been told to buy the Manual Chain Tensioner, any idea were i can buy one of these from, i don't want to get caught with this packing up on me. Any advice??

Hey Chris,
Welcome too!
Although as my name suggests I live in Luton, we're thinking of moving nearer to Bristol for work so might see you around?
Can I get a better pic of the bellypan please. And does anyone know what make it is and where to get it? Very nice!
Regards
Simon

Very tidy Storm mate, I lived around the Swindon area for six years there are some great roads down there. Fit the manual ones convert your old ones with a bolt. Stay safe
