depending how much you want i may have it off you
:D
That fits about right to be honest. None of them 'fit' There is always a gap even on the new ones. One of the reasons i never brought one
Out of the options, id go for the rubber thing around it :D

Yeah the rubber thing doesn't look too bad, but I am no expert.

We owners of the 1000s swap the rubber stopers from the seat hump with the ones from the seat as they are shorter and give the hump a closer fit. Try shiming it to get a good fit.
The rubber thing looks 8)
Yup. Though it sounds horrible, in the pic the rubber trim actually looks quite smart.
i have actually taken the rubber stops off complely to see if that makes a difference it did a little.
My vote's for the rubber trim. Looks OK.
Where have I seen pics of this bike before?

i have had it for sale on here a few times but have decided to keep it untill the bmf and will advertise it on a show stand then might get a bit more interest in it.

I just monkeyed about with mine till it fit right. It's still got a fairly big gap- it wou;ldn't come off it if didn't- but it's all along the same lines now instead of having a step.
Have you tried brute force, lots of it? :wink:
