I decided to have a look at my nuts today, with a view to ordering and fitting the aerowings and found like others on here that the plastic which holds the rubber insert nuts has in 2 places broken and fallen off and badly cracked (read buggered) in the others. My guess is the problem is caused by, the small amount of plastic and the use of the rubber inserts which expand and crack the plastic if only slightly over-tightened. So I have decided to make a pair of brackets which will bolt to the alloy bracket for the mirrors and should be strong enough for the aerowings. I suspect that  the fitting of aerowings will only increase the load on these fragile mounts. I have made a cardboard template and will get some alloy angle over the weekend to make the brackets with. If it works I will post a picture or two.

The Aerowings I fitted are proving to be very rigid, much more so than the last ones I fitted some years ago, lets hope Mother Kawasaki has improved the quality of the plastic mouldings on the later model GTR, out of interest the Aerowings look great and are effective

I had an issue with the wings fouling on the larger standard screen on the latest model GTR, so I contacted ProjektD and exchanged pictures and dimensions etc, they communicated with me for a week but I've heard nothing since 

Let it go Jim.........let it go 

Yeah go on Jim, you know you want to
