    I'll keep my eyes open. I usually check eBay often for things I don't really need. ;)

    Send me some pics of your bike sometime. I'd like to see what you've done to it.

    Hi Guys ,
    Funny I was just thinking of adding them also....I went to the one web site that is $50.00 ea?
    I'm kind of gone fiber happy....have the stick on tank stuff, front fender, want to get the heat shield but its still a few dollars to o much. Next I think is the rear hugger.


    If anyone gets them please send me a Pic...vfracer1999@yahoo.com


    Ride Fast Ride Safe.....

    ;D

    I haven't personally but you may try contacting them through e-mail and see if they will give you a phone number. They also have it set up you can pay through paypal.

    I have them. I got them on EBay. I was the only bidder and I picked them up for $20 plus $4 s&h. They look fine, especially since I replaced the frip with the VFR grips from Harris racing in the UK.

    I'll take some pics in the next few days if you want to see what they look like...

    To vfracer : I layed down some of Tapeworks carbon sheet graphics and it de- uglified the heat shield nicely.
    Also covered the chin fairing w/ it ...compound curves are a bitch.
