Hey guys, as per the title anyone had dealings with Carbon King? I’ve ordered a couple of parts up to see what the quality is like. I found them to be very reasonably priced as opposed to some I could mention. Large range of parts and most in stock. I have a discount code for 10% if your interested in a few trick bits? https://the-carbon-king.com/
My bikes now dripping in carbon. Still got loads on it's way in the post, but to be fair, none of my bits were from carbon-king. All of my carbon has been from the US and from all different companies. My frame and swing arm covers were from Germany though. A company called Z4 do some amazing work. The detailing on the sprocket cover amazed me. No burn or stretched marks on the edges either. Chin
I’m getting the same twill finish so should be comparable? CK are uk based so no import taxes or postal delays and at the price I’ll take one for the team Hand polished as well....bit like your chain porn n tissues If your looking for anymore have a gander and use “trade1” at checkout for the discount
Cheers Daz, will do. I've gone for the 2 x 2 twill high gloss finish too. I don't mind the custom tax, which I just got charged £10 for yesterday for my air ducts, but, I hate having to give the Royal Mail £8 for their so-called handling fee. So all in, £18 now! My air ducts are being delivered tomorrow. I don't have my bike though, as it's currently at the Dyno Centre having my PCV mapped and an alarm fitted. Chin.
Aye well you’ve got to budget that in as well but if the part is worth the extra wonga? Very nice, debated a PC but i’ll leave it until (if) I put the headers on? Getting a little pop on the over run which i’m quite happy with Yep the handling charge is a con like because they treat like registered post! Track it and classed as priority goods because of the tax charge you’ll very rarely get away with HMRC from the USA.
I agree with not getting away with US custom charges 100%, I've never got away with it. PC however... I put it on and as is, in standard format smoothed out the jerkyness between 3-4 revs. The dyno will map the AFR to its optimum and smooth it out throughout the whole rev range. I'm doing it for smoothness, not the willy-waving BHP little gain it'll get. My mates bike has been done and its silky! Chin
I get why you’ve got one on and but i’m not at the point where i need it yet. can’t justify the extra cash when she’s running lovely as i’ve only swapped the end can. i’ve got the headers and 02 eliminator but as you say gets lumpy without the PC adjusting the AFR. I’ve spent enough for one season thanks to covid
Here’s mine in twill defo getting more Heat shield even has protection on it before I do anything with it!
