Is there a crash bung for '95 classB ?
 
The R&G ones are listed for the later '99+ models, there is a B&G one advertised in Germany for €80,(but no pic)

Or is there a workaround bung model to help protect the fairings? I want the type like on the monster that replaces the long through-bolt so that the weight of the engine is directly onto the track and doesn't destroy levers clipons rearsets and fairings.

Too damn costly dropping it as it is.

Pre 99 models have two short bolts on the front engine mounts that screw directly into the engine and as the engine case castings don't go right across the frame you shouldn't really be drilling them out to fit one long bolt all the way through.
I did make some for Senna3 a few years ago that served him well

Maybe I should have had some fitted last weekend while tyre testing

We (Bionicle, Skids & myself) spent an hour sorting Skids bike out in the cold and wet :( we had to wheel it down behind the cafe and use there hose to clean the mud and stones that ended up inside the fairing, but we managed to sort it, the baffling thing was that the rear belt had jumped a tooth on the cam sprocket, did not sound healthy at all, but Skids sorted that and it was fine on the next start up:)

Cheers I deserved that :o
But in fairness if I hadn't thrown the bike back together they would have been put back on after the fitting of new belts now I have the Cam Timing as I want it, well it was before the crash anyway.:p
