The road has some VERY tight bends, and what with tourists, cyclists, climbers, traffic everywhere, we couldn't really have much fun on it. And there was a diesel slick around one section! Up, down, coffee. Then up half way for some snaps, and back down, head for home.
Bill tried to beat me in top gear roll ons on the M5, but the second time he tried it I spotted him knocking down a gear - he's a sly old foccer! So I did same, nowt in it.

x2 Filthy Foccers

F**k me Nick, you should try in the summer that really gets you on your toes.

Made a start on 'Operation: Summer Fairing'

lots of hacking and chopping.

[noggythenog]

The more mention of hacking from mr a page got me dragging the noggyfighter outta the shed.


Took the battery out for its indoor winter store & charge.


Got the hacksaw to my knackered front fairing.


Produced a tarts fairing for the side of the noggyfighter.


Havent done the other side yet coz i dont have the same upper mount due to it being snapped off but ill get there in the end. 8)

[Ianboydsnr]

fitted hand guards and an exhaust!

[slimwilly]

Noggy, stop taking pictures of it a bloody ride it!!! :lol :lol :lol

[apage16]

Looks good Nog!


Why didn't I think of that!!?? (particularly before I chopped and used those same parts for plastic welding fodder!!)  :wall

[noggythenog]

Noggy, stop taking pictures of it a bloody ride it!!! :lol :lol :lol

The noggyfighter is like you slim..........old & fragile , i dont want to put it, or myself through any more unnecessary trauma.


Summer is what the noggyfighter dreams of.....amongst other things that shall be left to the imagination. 8) [size=78%] [/size]

Plenty knackered fairings kicking about the country though, happy hunting!


Now wheres that summer fairing you were talking about?

[apage16]

True!


It's on the way!


Still waiting for paint, but the structural work is done!


Hopefully a few pics tomorrow.

I love the side panel, did Yamaha consult you when they designed the MT09??

[noggythenog]

Ha ha! :lol ...im a pro at making an ugly bike uglier......but then if owners look like their bikes.....well i am Nog




Now just to figure out an attachment for the other side where the fairing mount to the frame has snapped.


Im thinking basic, like a big ass jubilee clip round the frame with the feeded through excess having a hole drilled through it so i can then slam fairing screw through it & bolt it from the back.


Got all winter to think about it
