i would really like one as i have been fitting my own chains lol

Just fitted one to the 996, had to tweek it slightly with a pair of pliers but it is now in place and I will be out on the bike tomorrow,
I haven't tried fitting a sprocket cover as i don't run one on the 996,
Also I am running a 14T front sprocket and have loads of clearance so should be OK with a 15T, I will find out when I fit one to the 998 Hybrid in the next day or two.
At some time I will try and fit the sprocket cover as it looks as if it should fit OK once the bit of plastic protruding like a small shelf is cut off from the inside as the stainless protector comes around this far

Also getting made at the moment are the rear Bellypan brackets for the 748/916/996/998 models, masde in stainless and are for use with race bellypans.

We will also be looking at making stainless brackets to prevent the sidestands flipping up on SS models, monsters etc.

How much do think the case protectors will be.

Dont forget me Kev (998 model please 15t)

After showing them to a few people at the weekend (Roachman, Nattyboy, Jacko, Karl, Eddie and a few more) and asking them about price, we have settled on £10 each to DSC Members.

Demand looks quite strong and I have asked for another 20 or so to be made, but to hold off making them until I know if any mods will be needed to fit the sprocket cover.

I have taken pics of the one on the 996 and hope to fit one to the 998 before taking it to the BMF and will see if I can get a sprocket cover to fit with it in place.
