Hi JMJ. They are big ugly wind/rain deflectors, that attach via velcro staps. work well. But don't look too flash.

[junkmanjoe]

i thought they might have been them big handle bar mittens they have on quads.. keep ya hands warm..

TKC80 front Mitas E07 rear, somtimes TKC80 rear. Have some Michelin's to try at some stage, T63 front & Deset rear. [have a feeling may not last long]

[Eddieb]

What do you think of the E-07 rear on the 990 in terms of how stable it feels on gravel and how it turns?

have this combo on now, there holding up very good, just over 4,000km on them, great in the gravel and good grip on the tar seal, i think i get another 2000 km out of them yet.

Hi Eddieb. Eo7 good on gravel, but have to be carfull on wet tarseal. Got about 11000km out of last one & that was not being nice to it. Thats why I got another. Only use more agressive tyres when needed. Can only get about 4500km out of a tkc80 rear, being nice to it.

Hi All
You maybe interested in this idea that came from AV riders for under seat storage tray for KTM 950-990's. Some of us have had a units made and fitted them to our bikes, they are real easy to install and give you some handy storage under the seat. Takes around just 30min to install.
they are made from 1.5mm stainless steel so are strong and rust proof. Cost are $180 each couriered to any location in NZ. For more info email gc.sargent@xtra.co.nz
