I made the trip up to see Gus and his lovely Partner who's name escapes me at present - my sincere apologies Mate - to have my airbox "carbonised".
The hospitality shown to me was second to none. I have only met Gus once before but I was welcomed like I have known him for ages.
He is a truly resourceful person. As you can see from the attached picture it turned out really well. I need to do some more buffing to it once the resin hardens completely but yeah it looks trick! Thanks Gus. King of Karbon. (the black bit at the bottom of the airbox is an optical illusion, looks black but there is the signature carbon weave throughout it.)

Good job, looks the goods.

I think they are going to look great once I get them back on the bike, thanks Gus

Just finished polishing them .BLING.

sweeeet ... they'll even reflect light now.

I've said it before and i'll say it again Gus, your on a winner with your CARBONISING. All the parts look great. Have you thought about advertising on other bike forums. I'm sure you will find some more carbon addicts there. Keep up the good work.

I'm tending to finish one job and then get another ,which is about all i can handle as at the moment as I'm working 6 days a week doing normal work .(traffic control and surfboards ).I have to admit those pannier covers came out mint ,nice material (good bond ) and a surface you can get at .

These look great in the flesh


its very hard to photograph in the sunlight

Gus has done a top rate job yet again. Looks so good Baz.

You're a bloody genius Gus. There's no doubt about ya.

Its only carbon fiber ,nothing very clever there .Now the bloke who put two stints in my heart ,that clever .

Since the carbon front guard on my bike didn't match the carbon on the rest of the bike (different weave ). I ended up buying another guard on
E-Bay (a grey one ) and carbonized that one,front and back . The idea is to re-do mine and put it back on E-Bay or do a change over if anyone
wants a carbon one .The beauty is i don't care if yours is scratched .$120 plus postage if any takers .
Here is my new one ,needs another polish tomorrow .

I've got to do a full CBR900RR restore Gus. I might be looking at sending you the complete fairing head to toe

I just did a full scooter cost him $600

Just made a cowl for my Aprilia.

Gus,
Could you give me a price on a carbon look rear wheel cover?
I saw one on a post, or in my dreams.

It's called a "hugger"! May I have one, please, please. How much. My Bandit is a 2010, 1250LO.

Remember i only cover your hugger i dont make the whole thing . To cover one about $50 but you could probably buy one with a carbon look .
Doesnt look as good but may work out cheaper buy the time you add freight costs to me and back Unless you live in QLD .

Thank you for replying, Gus. And for the good advice.

Im very happy with my Pyramid Plastics hugger and the service I got from the Aust distributer.
The freight from the UK is a killer at the moment. Mine was $150 (black) landed in 5 days. I think CF was + $20

Powerbronze also have an Aust. distributor & do one as well . If you ask for it , you can get bandit forum 10% discount as well

Since Ironman had a cowl he wanted carbon on, and i wanted a cowl, we worked out a deal .I would carbon his cowl if he didnt mind me using it as a mould to make my own .Layed 2 layers of cloth over it ,seperated it and i was away .This is my new cowl .

I like the shape of that one better Gus
