    Just a point to note. I bought some black stainless steel bolts for the anodised parts. I can supply silver ones but as a default it will be black. If you want silver bolts just let me know

    IMG_4368.jpg Fitted today....chain & sprocket(s) are next on the list :oops:
    I refitted the screw that held the previous guard, just behind the foot rest - not sure if I should remove it.
    I like that the guard is not immediately visible, a bit of a stealth look
    (Gixxer in the background looks nice too :p)

    Nup.

    I do admire and respect your workmanship, but I'm a stickler for originality with some parts. Plus, the OEM better prevents chain lube fling. :)

    It would but unfortunately his bikes stay as they come, not interest in the slightest modification.

    That’s fair enough mate, i have to confess they look better on the bikes than in my hand!

    Still have a handful to sell if you know of anyone that wants one :)

    Fingers crossed mate. Looking forward to seeing it fitted again! That’s the best part for me. Drooling over the fitted pictures! Will have to get a 08+ next so I can fit one to my own bike lol
