Ours is a Roca.

Available from Banditmania or direct from France.

Brilliant fit, especially after the horrible Powerbronze bellypan. You get two black plates that fix using the engine cover bolts. The B/P is then hung off them using 4 Suzuki type bolts. Easy. You can also get lights to go into the recesses.

Price for this quality is 180ish quid colourmatched or 45notes off of Ebay. Guess where we got ours. :D

Cheers Twinny. :cool:

Powerbronze one is too big and the bracketry is very amateurish. Has been some discussion on them causing oil leaks. At the end of the day it's all down to taste or maybe budget. All I know is that the PB one was a b@stard to take on and off for oil changes whereas the Roca is easy peasy.

This one is a somewhat modified Pyramids one- the overall shape is identical, just that I had to mod it about to fit it. Nice piece, good mounting brackets, quite weighty if that's a consideration. They also cost you just a little ground clearance, but we're talking heroic lean, and scrapes on your bodywork are pretty cool I think :smt023

i like the look of this one mate, i don't really like the idea of taking out my engine bolts everytime i have to change the oil on the side casings, is this one just a single bolt?

Re: Curvey belly pans ? ?
 
Just one bolt for the bracket, and you don't need to remove it for servicing etc, but 4 bolts to remove the pan. The underneath ones are pretty fiddly as I recall, but not too bad.
