ROCA Saddle Shutters?
 
Is it worth getting these as i want to take my grab rail off as my bird does not like holding onto it, so therefore its not worth it being on.... Also it looks rather good without it as i am getting a lexus lens and doing the tail tidy soon.

It just seems a bit pricey for what they are:

If anyone else knows of a different brand etc or got an alternative to these would like to know... Or just get these lol!

If you can get banditmania to sell them to you then yes they are good, banditmania keep fobbing me off that they are not in stock and yet when I emailed them the same day form a different email address they were in stock. I'm still waiting!!!

Really?? My dad used to buy a load of stuff from there when he had his Bandit without a problem... I personally havent bought anything from there yet. Would just like to know if there worth getting these saddle shutters becuase i have'nt come across any where else that do thgem or any other company for that matter.

Lol good old Asda!!! Oh ryyt how do you go about fixing them? I'm making that tail tidy so i'll have some ally left over which could be used for that I guess? So these Roca Saddle Shutters arent really worth paying the 25 quid price tag?

I don't hold onto the grab rail either, but we haven't removed ours as Pete finds it invaluable for holding on to when putting the bike up on a rear paddock stand.

That's why I have kept mine for so long, really put off by banditmania on this one and I have never had a problem with them before. Might just keep it there, as Lissa and Pete know it is very handy!

I've had the same from Banditmania. They had a large order placed by myself last year. The stuff came to my door in dribs and drabs....I got my Roca colour coded bellypan from there, I expected it to take a while, but, oddly I recieved that reasonably quickly....it took them three weeks after that arrived to send me a double bubble screen. They told me that DB screens were hard to get hold of at that time of year
I emailed to tell them to cancel sending it, and it arrived after the email was sent, they told me they hadn't recieved no email cancelling....I got very annoyed with them
I sent it back out of principle, as I got the black bike with one on it already.
They really didn't get my vote at all. Even if they are the only place to have stuff that I need I wouldn't buy it off them
