Good work Gus. My Rad caps should arrive on your doorstep this time hopefully rather than your neighbours Smile

Is it those chrome things you mean . lol!
I can cover them so you get the same bits back but look like solid carbon.. Well, i could make them in carbon. but no point .

Paint them in kids black water paint first (so it wash's off ) and stand back to make sure you like it dark .

Now that's a good idea. Also good idea about covering them.

Not that I want this but what about fairing screens in carbon? We have dark screens so why not in carbon.

I do like the chain guard. I might send you two!
Looking for a hugger for the FZ that will probably be CF anyway.
I recommend you set up a PaPal account so we can pay you and you can buy your bits with the balance Smile
If my neck/shoulder comes good I'll be looking forward to a pre Christmas ride on the neglected Bandit with wog chrome attached. Laughing

Geelong Carbon already do CF tank pads http://www.geelongcarboncraft.com.au/search.php?search_query=1250&x=0&y=0

The prices are a bit up there I think.

I'm not a fan of CF bits that you normally see around a bike, but I will say that the out of the ordinary bits (fork seal guards, side panel, rad side bits) do make the bike look unique and I reckon you've got yourself a winner.

Mine are polished alloy these days, paint and Sidi boots don't co-exist together
