    Want to replace the OE plastics on the tank and below the seat.

    Been looking around for these bits but unsure where to get them from for the best price and quality, has anyone got details of what they have and pics :)

    Do you have to get them both from the same supplier so the weaves match or are they all much of a likeness ? as you can tell not gone down the carbon route before but these two items will make a big difference I think :)

    Thanks in advance for any help guys n girls :)

    Thanks for your help Blade 1980 :) any chance you have a pic of them fitted :)

    I have ordered of Zero limits the tank covers and the under seat triangular panels, gave them a ring and they where very helpful, did they need any modification to fit or are they just unwrap and fit :) will be nice to get them on as the OE plastics don't seem to stay black whatever I use. Think these will set the bike off nicely :)

    +1 for zero limits . They keep those parts in stock so no waiting time like with the belly pan .

    The belly pan i had from them is very very high quality + they gotta be the cheapest around

    Unfortunately Dan they are out of stock at the moment so could be a wait :( , but in no rush and like you say for the quality and the price I don't mind :)

    That belly pan is so so nice, I was tempted but this is really the last buy for a while, have a integrated rear light coming so will look forward to getting it fitted, the rain stopping and just enjoying the bike for a bit :)

    Tried to call them today regarding the carbon inserts below the seat. However no answer, left a message.
    They've got 2 different parts listed on their website one or £50 and the other for £55.
    Any idea which is the correct part for my 2011 blade?

    Also love the carbon tank, bargain at £132!!!

    Anyone know we're the heat shield & sharks Fin fits?

    Cheers
    Rich

    Shark fins bolt under the swing arm to stop your boot going in the back sprocket . Not sure on the heat shield , could it be for an 07 ?

    I spoke to them and they said it was the £50.99 part :) so I have ordered them :)

    I think the heat shield replaces the black shield behind the right std rearset, which was there to stop heat from the std exhaust
