curvy or pointy? if it's a curvy iirc the torque arm off a tl1000 fits but you need to change the bolts so try a few breakers. not sure if the ppointy one is the same though

No torque arm on a pointy.

I've just had mine powdercoated for a whopping £8 british sterling :shock:. Never needs polishing (unlike a polished one) and shouldn't rust.

It's an option :roll:

It'll rust eventually- the bolts will chew up the powdercoat when you refit it and it'll rust under from there. Sorry! But it'll still be better than standard by a long way. And for £8 you can't complain. I had one in black for a while and it was lovely.

TL1000 or GSXR SRAD torque arm, fits a charm- you need to do a little drilling is all, or find a different bolt.

I got mine for about that (maybe a tenner?) from BBS in Edinburgh. I was getting fork lowers done at the same time though. It tends to be cheaper if you want a simple or common colour

Swift coatings in barnsley (well darfield actually but it's near enough),It's where i had my wheels done. bit far from peterbro, £10 is about the average i think but he did it cheaper as i had ordered in a specific colour for the wheels he doesn't normally use.
