Default ****ed off...

Grr appart from working with fools ive just got the rad guards i needed off ebay to get my bike on the go (indicators mount to them) only to find the one side i need looks like its been down the road!!! gutted.


so nyone know where i could get some cheap? as triumph want 98 quid plus vat which i think would be better spent on tyres.

GRR short angry man on the loose!

Stop being bloody tart and stick indicators on with bit of plate bracket or something. Rad guards look gay and do nowt anyway.

Unless its for a Raptor, when anything that might stop a stone chip putting a hole chip in it is an investment

Andy make your own. I am. Try buying a cover for a curved rad, now thats annoying.
Anyway, stop buying bling and do what YC says, oh and bloddy buy some tyres you tight ar$e

I'm on about those gay side pods on the S4... not actual mesh guard that guards the radiator in a useful manner!
