I haven't had any luck with racks as no-one seems to make them for 2008 models anymore. Im probably gonna ask my welder to knock something up.

Hi Tom,
Just caught your post. I have a brand new set of Jialing racks, which was incorrectly shipped to me a while ago (long story!). They are still unwrapped. I am not even sure if they are a complete set. You can have them if they fit the model year of your bike.
BTW, I am still have the hand-me-down racks from Motokai, over which I throw my GDW waterproof soft panniers for longer trips. That, along with a top box, works great for me.

A thousand thank yous Milton, you are da man!! :clap:
i just spent the day working on the bike and as always it wasn't a total success.
First off I built a phone mount
Attachment 10396
crude but hopefully effective
Attachment 10397
I had it welded and the paint is drying now. Will hopefully finish it tomorrow
Next on the list was the crash damaged front fairing
Attachment 10398
It popped back into place with some gentle persuasion - Im gonna try and find some t cut
Attachment 10399
Then I epoxied the shit out of the inside :naughty:
The bike had leaked a little oil overnight and the drain pliug felt like it had possibly been overtightened. We tightened it as much as we dared and then wedged a piece of ply in between the nut and the bash plate to hopefully stop it falling out completely.

Any advice here would be fantastic!
The original master cylinder had a smashed view window so I replaced it with an old yingang one I had lying around. I was amazed to find that the mirrors were left hand threaded! Anyone know why?

I followed Motokai's advice and epoxied the chain guide in place

Im thinking about disabling the side stand cut off switch. Is that recommended? It has three wires so i wasnt sure how to go about it...

The can isn't welded to the pipe and you can actually move it quite a bit. Is that normal and should I get it welded?
