Look forward to these arriving ... Sat morning at 530 am A3 into London... temp gauge hovering between 1 and 0, heated grip on .... I was just thinking my hands could do with a bit of wind deflection !!!  ;D
Again, thanks for jacking this up Martin ... well done you.

OK guys, I have managed to get some more added to the order. I need to draw a line at some point and get them in the post to me, so I am going to check this thread at 5pm today for the last possible changes.  As LR says, winter is fast approaching and we need to get these on the bikes.

The order stands as follows.

- Myself, Lord Rusty, FatHarry, Kwikasfuki, bradders94 and BigAlan are all having the standard sets
- cpettifer is having one set for risers

There is one set available for bikes with risers if anyone wants them.

I will get back in touch with everyone when they land with me (should be only a few days), and make sure I have addresses for everyone.

Once you are happy with them, and once I have worked out exactly what they cost, I'll give out some payment details so you can send me the money.

@nogoslow, Bill says he has not had chance to try his wings on a pre-2010 bike, so he cannot confirm if they fit or not. If nobody buys the spare riser set, I am happy to post them to you to try.

Cheers all,

Martin.

No worries, it can wait until the 5th. We are not talking fortunes, and I am sure us GTR riders are all decent, trustworthy folk  ;)

For those who have not PM'd me their address yet, please do so and I'll get these on their way to you once they have landed with me.

Cheers,

I'm pretty sure a CalSci screen will work with the deflectors. I just fitted mine. Because it is fairly straight instead of curved, like the stock screen, it will probably sit further away from the deflectors. However, I've just fitted my stock screen back on as the CalSci just didn't work for me... :(

Just a wee update on this one.

The risers are all winging their way to me across the atlantic, with luck (assuming Quantas did not get the gig) they should be with me early next week. I will update again when they are on their way to you all.

Cheers,

OK guys, the wings have landed.

My wife is currently working out a way of wrapping them safely, but they should be on their way to you all in today's post.

Oh, and by the way, they work an absolute treat. Used mine yesterday in the teaming rain and my hands stayed much drier. Great addition to the bike for the colder and wetter months.

They cost me £37.24 each to get here, I would say £5 for packaging and onward postage so a whopping total of £42.24. Will reply to all the PMs with payment details next week, and once you've got the wings and are happy with them, send over the money.

Cheers guys, and I have one set spare if anyone would still like some.

Martin.

ps: @Fatharry, still need your name and address details please.

Awesome, thanks for doing this. I've got a laminar lip on it's way too (replacement for the CalSci I didn't get on with). So pimping my ride with plastic right now!

Thanks Martin ... well done ! Not often I look forward to sending someone money  ;D ;D

BigAlan

Excellent news, i look forward to sending you the money any way you like, oh and i just fitted the Laminar lip on the bike and its awesome, raining today and the wind noise was sooo much quieter, the screen wobbles a bit more but thats to be expected.

Thanks
