    Prototypes are machined!

    This is the finished product (brushed aluminium)

    The prototypes will be going out tomorrow to be received Thursday. All being well, for sale post will be up for the weekend and orders will start to be taken.

    Enjoy!

    Thanks guys, let’s hope they fit ok :)

    I’m aiming to test one on my RR7 to confirm whether or not they fit RR4-7 as is or would need some adjustments to fit. They should currently fit 08-18?

    Putting out an SOS here...

    I need to finalise fitment in the swing arm... is there anybody local to Cambridge area with an 08+ blade that would like a free chainguard in exchange for an hour of their time?

    A few pictures of the guard fitted to my RR7, it does fit and “work” but it’s not a perfect fit as the brace on the swing arm is smaller than that of an 08+ bike.

    Either way, this is how it sits. Opinions welcomed.

    This is fitment on a 08+ blade. Minor tweak to make to completely clear the weld line
