    As above before crimbo I ordered a Rothmans fairing kit for my blade, just checked the tracking number and on the royal mail parcel checker it says service: express 24 and status: held.
    Anybody know when i'm likely to recieve them?

    After you have paid the fee mate .. Phone them up a pay the charge asap otherwise i think they write yo you asking for it which delays delivery loads

    Si has just been through the process and I'm sure he will be along soon

    I had the same today mate, I had to pay customs charges before they released the item for delivery. There is a phone number you can phone to pay over the phone, then they will deliver them. In my case, I'm getting it delivered tomorrow. You need the tracking number and your address so you can make payment via debit or credit card.


    Here is the phone number. Wait for the responses and speak to an operator and they'll sort it out for you. They are open from 9 am until 5 tomorrow.

    08448 004466.

    I've got a Chinese kit on mine - very glad as i slipped off the bike the other day so financially, its already paid off!

    Be prepared for a little 'tweaking' when fitting it!

    I don't know how it's being declared so i'll have to call and find out tomorrow I guess.
    I don't fancy getting the new plastics peppered in stone chips, I was thinking about trying to get some of the 3M paint protection stuff fitted to try and reduce the damage!

    Would be interested to know how you get on with the fitting and finish of the kit. Any chance you could post a few pictures?
