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.


Where abouts in the country are you????

Nice bit of road (about 30 miles from Oxford) then from Marlow to Lane end and on to Stokenchurch, Some great roads out that way that we often ride on.

Thanks for the link to the twin bungs, I still like the idea of drilling through though.

I live on that marlow to lane end rd. Every summer weekend there's the rumble of Harleys, Classic Old English, or vintage Vespa's in convoy over the Chiltons and then down onto the Oxford Plain. Or its a good zig zag on back roads from here to Kathy the leather lady at Westcott.

Things have been taking a bit long at Kathy's this year, I don't think sheeven bothered to call Trudi back after she had left a message.

But always worth Zig Zaging across Xmas Common, down Into Watlington then turn right and go past Brancatto Engineering at Charlgrove, then Stadhampton or right then left and across to Benson and on to H-Cafe where a group of us were last Sunday
