Took a punt on an Ebay carbon guard. $128 brand new

[98tls]

Rather have kept my TLS guard but with the GSXR forks it was put in the to hard basket so took a punt on this Carbon one,$128 US with free shipping,not expecting to much was well chuffed when it turned up ultra quick, very well packaged and a good fit.Not as good quality as the like of Geelong Carbon craft but way cheaper and will do the job,sadly its going to make my old Geelong hugger look well old.

Doesn't look too bad at all.
Considering I paid circa $300 for a Tyga one a few years ago that wasn't much flasher.

Now, put that beast together and get some vids up!

Looking good mate! One of these days you'll run out of mods and have to give the old girl a paint job :innocent:

Not that there's anything wrong with the current colour, of course :sick:

Seriously though, looking good :niceone:

I hear you on the colour thing mate,ive always had this love hate thing with the Y3G Lamb shit yellow/Frog snot green,thing is i guess that anyone mad enough to spend the last 11 years chucking $ at the old thing like i have (and still are) might just as well leave it the rather odd colour it is.:niceone:At least it stands out amongst the rest and is easy to find on a Sunday morning after a night on the piss at a rally etc.Nobodys likely to steal it either lol.

Reminded me i did have a clip of the old thing,was trying to get to grips with the new fangled camera awhile back,theres the TL but mostly my finger over the lens:facepalm:http://youtu.be/IcfefkcJ5Bo

[tigertim20]

looks good for the price!

[onearmedbandit]

You got a link to the seller handy Mike? If they are a retailer on there I'd be keen to see what else they offer. For the price, that looks fantastic.

About 8 years ago a bloke on the TL site had 30 made for members,another made the pressure plate,anodized retainers etc,ive an up dated pressure plate i havent got round to fitting.Its more common these days to just cut a hole in the oem clutch cover and fasten a window in there.Its bullshit really but something different eh.:niceone:

Excellent, thanks mate, just bought a new clear screen off him for my bike for US$24.99 with free shipping. Can't beat that!

Maybe I live under a rock, 'cause I've never seen it before. Reminds me of the Ducati dry clutch with the slotted cover.

I quite like it, might have a look at doing something like that one day :Punk:

I think I have an illness...... :weird: :eek:

Mate you have an MV:niceone:Nothing ill about that.Yea a bit dry clutch reminder eh,had a few of those but unless it was an early SS or similar wouldnt have another.Had the old TLS for many years (still love it) and rather than carry on buying newer bikes i just decided many years ago to keep it and throw ridiculous amounts of coin at it,its a bit different and thats good.Would only consider selling it to buy either an old Bevel drive or if i stumbled across a mint 850 Commando.

Les has a thread on the tlplanet re old bikes funny you should say that Mike but theres a brand new 1975 with 0 miles 850 commando for sale in the states was still in its packing crate .

[Mad-V2]

Looks awesome for the price mike!
Cant wait to see it finished, I'm guessing you'll have no probs putting the CZ's on that front end with Sam's spacers?
I'll be getting some forks while in Oz but want to keep the OEM front rim setup and Van's top triple. Just gotta pick the right year front end.
I finally found Kendall Berg's website (http://kbsportbike.net/), Man I'm glad I found a new job to support this stinking obsession!
Please let me know how you get on with the 1080, I'll be getting the 1188 stage 3 kit when I finally move back home and I'll probably ask a few questions if thats o.k.
Also, if you want the dimensions for a gap mod tray, I have the layout from the one I made.
It could be shaped better to completely close any gaps under the hump, but it's a perfect fit as is. And easy!

Cheers

All good mate,i long ago considered the gap tray thing but it didnt work with what ive planned so gave it away.The 1080 bits are going into the "other" S motor i have which will end up replacing the current lump so ask away.The last bits i needed for the forks turned up today from Sam so am fitting them this weekend.
