And what cleaning products are those nutty? I'm not known for spending much time cleaning my bikes but I might make more of an effort with this one 
Farkle development including the front crud

- Start date
Fitted mine this morning. Great job. 
And what cleaning products are those nutty? I'm not known for spending much time cleaning my bikes but I might make more of an effort with this one
I just use SDOC100 gel (make sure you get the gel, not the cheaper stuff
), and Zymol car shampoo
I've also got a decent variety of soft brushes to get in all the nooks and crannies
Thanks. I have some of that gel. Just don't have much patience with brushes, nooks and crannies ;-)
Cheers Mark,
As soon as I get a firm delivery date I will be in touch.
Cheers
John.
Vario Mounting adaptor ?
Mark - Is there much chance of an adaptor plate similar to the one you made for the GSA to allow the 'old' vario topbox and mount to be fitted or would it take much to change one.....If i had the bike in front of me I could probably have a guess as to how straight forward it could be but I haven't yet. I just don't want to change the top box for a new one and then find that a few quid could make it fit.
Cheers
Mick

Oh yeah
Yes, enjoy the feeling - sadly we have generally long lost the ability to produce individually made parts due to the relentless onslaught of the stack em high sell em cheap pacific rim countries where a faceless slanty eyed brethren wouldn`t have a clue what he was making (or care about) but just would work as fast as possible, looking forward to his bowl of rice as payment for a weeks work.
Long live people who care about what they do and long live British craftsmanship, in my mind still the best in the world.
Oops, bit of a rant there. Sorry, didn`t mean to `soapbox it` but I do feel passionate about what I do and other people in this country do to say `Made in Britain`

Yes I think it is possible, looking at my LC, but of course it will have to go behind the following list:
1. Rad protectors.
2. Rear Crud.
3. Pillion seat plate.

Impending doom
Guys, as an aside, I have been told by the geezer who looks after my accounts that I will have no choice but to register for VAT shortly.
What it means is that I will have to apply this tax to all my stuff then pay said tax over to the governement quarterly.
So, if you want any gear PLEASE consider getting it before this bloody tax gets put on.
And PLEASE don`t think this is a sales ploy, coz I can assure you it isn`t and I`ve been trying to put this off for ages.

Oh I need these, was looking at buying the pillion grid but would rather support small business.
Any idea of prices and dates?
All the best,

For sure EVERYTHING will be lower priced, more readily available (I`ve heard horror stories of 4-6 weeks from order wtf?) and hopefully better quality than the `giant` who has two `T`s in its name...............
But as a very very rough guide:
1. Rad protectors. 2 weeks very approx £80
2. Rear Crud. 3 weeks very approx £20
3. Pillion seat plate. 4 weeks very approx £60
Once again these development times are very `approx` coz if I ain`t happy I won`t make them.
And THANK YOU for supporting the small guy

I have ESA, so no love for me then? Really miss scaring them cagers. There was this really memorable occation with a dude in a Range Rover. Elbow in window, phone in ear, coffee in the other hand. He slowly slides across two lanes and into mine, not looking or caring at all. I let him have all the 137 dB or whatever (that thing is loud!) from three feet: WHAAAAAAAAAAAAA Coffee everywhere. I swear, the huge beast jumped sideways.

Wouldn't think that for a moment Mark.
Put crud catcher on this weekend, superb really works and looks well. Will await rear one to come along.

650 miles now.
That's a good point (sorry for going off topic!) but my headers aren't turning blue either after 600 miles yet on the last GS they'd changed within the first couple of rides.

Mine are going off colour after 400 miles

Nippy Norman sent me a set of the TT protectors to evaluate for him - they are good bits of kit in my humble opinion (strong, well made) so you have purchased well - but thanks for the offer of further support
