Default R&G catalogue raided...

Hi everyone. Picking up a new AL9 tomorrow. I've ordered a set of R&G crash protectors - has anyone fitted some - they quote 'challenging' 3/5 to fit. Cannot be that hard. I'm fairly handy with spanners. Anything to watch out for?

Gonna fit some bobbins too. Never had a bike with no centre stand. Just bought the paddock stand. Rad guard. Hangers are coming off. (Missus point blank refuses to go on the back).

Plus a tail tidy. Is this a straightforward fitting too?

Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

Many thanks.

Exhaust standard sounds like a sewing machine none of those jobs are particularly challenging just take your time read the instructions and if all else fails YouTube it.

Sorry - forgot to mention. Can too. Scorpion. I got dealer to fit this as I point blank refuse to ride home with OEM monstrosity...!

Been biking since ‘81. Never had a quiet exhaust. I took one look at that monstrosity - and ordered a can on delivery. I just asked dealer to fit it. Not that I do not know what to do. I did not feel safe riding home out of the city...!
