nice one mr nog ...what did you use ?

Well i used the focin tin o brasso my missus had but never seems to use on anythin....gone now!

A scabby old kitchen sponge......

& a tin of elbow grease from LIDL, they got a special offer on!

I reckon if i needed them any cleaner i'd use some steel wool, from LIDL of course!...apparently steel wool wont scratch stainless steel because it's an inferior metal......im happy with how they look though....a little bit of tarnish to match the bike otherwise you look like a newb with an old bike & squeeky new boots

Nice,

is it a front mudguard from an fzs 1000? or a thundercat?

You planning on getting a rad cover or just new end caps?

Chris

Apparently a fibreglass copy Chris of the official sport fender that yamaha apparently had as an option but ive never heard about them before, quite a nice piece though & just a little bit different.

Ah, looks good. Very like the thou one. does it fit on the original fork mounts?

Chris

Straight fit, but mount points need drilled out,only outline of the holes on delivery.it is jus like the thou one or the tdm one, a nice piece.

Ive had it with the rad mate, my foccin little blue yam embossed screw snapped off inside the rad so i cant mount the plates or the guard...so blackit is by default.oh well, it runs well anyway.really needs a carb balance soon though.

Ah, that sucks mate.

The ends of the rad do polish up quite nicely though, get to it! haha

Gutted to see you have fitted the stainless pipes had planned on offering some cash for them - where did you get the front fender from?

Very similar to mine otherwise
