06-09-10, 05:25 PM

So iv been looking at a couple of covers, just to give me bike that something different but cant decide whether il actualy like it or think it looks a bit cheesy.. anyone got any thoughts on them?

and also, they sy that they make no difference to performance.. but wouldnt have something covering the radiator (even though there is holes in it) stop air getting in...

I like that radiator cover but hate the ones that insist on having "SV" all over them. To me it's just like those "Ford" or whatever sunstrips on boy racer hatchbacks.

I have the hamicad ones, thing is i still had to put a file to it as the edges were still 'raggy'
