Thanks mate, sounds like the go then for sure (alloy). Looks good too.
Yeah it was Stefan that informed me they couldnt get stock, so I guess you guys have been buying them up pretty quick! I have a few more weeks til the bike is due anyhow, so maybe between now and then they will get more in.
You're not wrong about the stock version! Makes it difficult now to find a balanced set of panniers to go with the narrower pipes, metalmule is the only I know of and theyre pretty expensive!
