Default Poly26 (bellypan)...all the news to date

Theres been a lot of interest in Poly26 products, especially the bellypan.
www.poly26.com

As many of you know it turned out to be a saga (in fact a bit of a viking saga...sort of ).

I thought Id gather the threads here so its all in one place as I get a lot of enquiries.

I've given up on the idea of trying to get a Poly26 after all the hassle that the good Doctor (and others) have had, so I've just ordered a JMV one. It's unpainted, but I should be able to find someone local to do it.



Nice, but maybe not quite as good looking as the Poly26. Trouble is, they have to order it from France and everything there shuts down for August, so I'm not likely to get it until mid-September.

I think the JMV is a good alternative and was my other choice. It as good, IMO.

Just thought id let all you guys know as i was one of the ones that was originally interested in the poly26 pan aswell. i got my bellypan a few months ago also through the finish supplier. He is excellent by the way.

I ordered the silver one from him so he painted it aswell, and i have to say the service was great in my experience very quick. The colour match was also spot on.

The only few negative comments about the bellypan are this, the finish on the outside could be better, this is actually caused by the making process of using fibreglass though, the finish on the inside is also a bit raw we shall say, you can see the fibres etc. And one more thing you may find that the ground clearence may could be an isuue, i have found that conering quik with a pillion causes the pan to touch down occasionally.

Any way thats me done, time to go to the lord derby.

ride safe.
