Changing the chrome Radiator Guards

[grantmac]

Dumb question but for some one with two kak hands I want to know if its just as easy as removing the 3 screws, lifting off and putting the new ones back on.
My black ones arrived today
thanks

Doddle.
T25 needed

 

[grantmac]

Done. 3 screws and replaced. I got mine from Motea and they fitted perfectly. Matt black.
I just don’t get BMW. If you have a TB why are the “toaster” panels bright aluminum?
With the black it fits so much better!
Now to find some half decent quality pannier decals preferably showing a world map… my Alipuke ones are already starting to peel at the edges.

I couldn’t find them on the UK site, but it’s directed me to the European one.
@grantmac - what’re they manufactured from - aluminium or plastic?

 

[grantmac]

they are made of aluminium.

Aw bugger… I didn’t realise you had the adventure..
I was hoping for cheap(ish) black side pieces for the standard GS.

 

[grantmac]

yep, mine are for my 1300 GSA.

Can I have first dibs on your removed silver ones, if you sell?

Thanks. But I’m going to keep them in case I sell the bike
