I still have the original hero blobs on mine and i'm sorry to have to admit it but they only have a couple of minor scratches.
Must try harder in future!!
And the length of them including the nuts on the end is 36.5mm

well you may laugh at me flip screen (gazeebo) but it covers me gps nicely..and half me tank bag too..so i rekon cos i got a red bird that the rain wont even touch me now!..except when pulling over for the blue and black ones to catch up:f

i took the baby for a run up the M1 a while ago but due to adverse wind condictions was unable to check out the faring really

tickled the throttle up to 130 then a gust of side wind hit me..which canceled any further testing for today:cry:
one thing i did notice tho is it does bloody flex a lot and is quiet off putting when blueing (potting) along

in fact at first it looks a bit poo but once you stand back and admire the whole front section of bike now i do believe i can comapare it to a scud missle...it kinda stops the bird from looking like a bird..but turns it into something that looks like its ready for the land speed record:f

all i gotta do now is spray up me soda stream co2 bottle and fit it to the bike with no2 written down the side of it
