That's a bloody good idea!

Btw I`m just about to post some more images with the side deflectors fitted...........

Or you could do the Dakar man logo. I'd like to see what one with the one world bike logo would look like (plain black powdercoated with the logo etched in the centre).:thumb
 
I'm thinking a matt black powder coated version will fit well with the side covers.

Trying to dry water droplets off the inside of the perspex version drives me mad!!!

A cheap solution would be to remove the Perspex and spray the inside surface, you at least will not see the droplets and marks, plus the front side will show a highly polished look. You could of course use the Bike color to do this to make things match. Unless of course you are after the blacked out Commando look that Nutty craves :)

Bloody good idea geezer :thumb we might need to watch out for scratches though as I`m kinda thinking it could quite quickly look crappy IMVHO

And I`m not just saying that to sell my stuff!
 
+1 from me too and as much as i like the shiny one I would be forever getting pissed off trying to keep it to the same standard that i received from you so its a black one for me too:flag

As it happens (now then now then now then :D) I`ve had the stainless one on and its a lot easier to clean than the Perspex one and doesn`t show the water stains up as much but anyway I think the black one will look good.

I`ve just made one and dropped it off at the powder coaters (min order £30 :blast) so once its done I`ll post it and we will see what it looks like eh?

A good topcoat of stone Chip will protect things somewhat better, at least until the wallet can afford another purchase from you :thumb2

How are the the Pannier Brackets faring up for delivery?

All the brackets are back from the powder coaters so if you are one of the kind folk who has ordered a) they will get posted sooooon and b) coz I screwed up the powder coating you got them £20 cheaper than what they should be!

I`ve now put the price up on the site :( (I thought the powder coating price was for the pair :blast).

Next project, unless I get drunk, distracted (think Homer) or otherwise lost is a pillion seat plate/rack/thingy :roll

Btw I`m off to London to see my eldest so from tmoz morning I won`t be as abundant as I normally am! :bounce1

Ahh, that explains the difference in the bill then, Result!
 
Powder coated deflector ordered today.:beerjug: If you do the one world one GS world logo in time, I'll have that, failing that, a plain black one will be fine.:blagblah

I'll pass on the pannier racks, as I've cleared some space in the garage now.
 
Guys,

Does anyone know how I might be able to remove a snapped bolt in the engine block? I was installing the front crud catcher - I removed the wrong bolt so put it back in...over tightened and it snapped :tears

Is there an easy way to get the half bolt out of the hole without having to resort to going to BMW for a hefty labour charge to drill it out? Any tools I could use to try and turn the half bolt and unscrew it?

:blast

Whoops. Sorry to hear that. I thought that I used to be the only one who would decide to give a screw, a nut or a bolt one extra little turn to get it nice and tight, only to strip the thread or snap the bolt.

I do hope that you get it sorted asap and with as little hassle as possible
