Shazaam - thanks for the link to the whole thread on Speedzilla.
It makes scary reading with the statements and counter statements from some clearly vested interests.
At the end of the day we each have to make our own decisions and mine is very simple - no CF anywhere where my life might depend upon it.
Huggers, airboxes, petrol tanks (although the explosion in front of Haga when a CF tank went down the road might make that less of an option, plus a mate with a CF tank on a 996 had nothing but problems with leaks from where the pump/filter body mated with the tank), oil catchment tanks, fairings, air tubes etc all absolutely fine with me, but not wheels, frames, subframes or bars. No siree!
