Hi there chaps, I've just bought one of these for the old girl & jus wanted to share with you fine people just how good the service is - it arrived with me 3 days from ordering it - from Germany. There are a lot of sellers in this country could take lessons from this company.
All I've got to do now is get the rest of the stuff & get it all painted ready for the long hot summer that's coming next year.... :shock:

Regards from the chubby one - Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to you all.

Thanks for posting that box-doctor.

I've been looking at these myself but had heard some of the ones on ebay came needing lots and lots of work to prep up for painting. I take it yours from these guys doesn't.

By the way, how heavy is it?

Cheers, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too.

I dropped it off today with the guy who is doing the painting & he says "very little preparation is needed" & added "it's very high quality" Personnaly I wouldn't really know high quality from crap where painting is concerned - it's just not something I've ever really got involved with, but my man says it's good, so that's enough for me. As for the weight - it weighs about 2lbs I would say.
I just have to get the rest of the bodywork off now, buy all the carbon bits & wait for summer.... :?

Regards from the chubby one.

Got one myself a couple of months ago and very happy with it - just given it to a mate to get it sprayed up (deals with insurance repairs) so I've yet to see what it will look like with a professional paintjob. Only thing I would say would be that the brackets provided are extremely basic and bear no resemblence to anything on a boxercup. In fact I couldn't think how you could possibly use them, personally I think it's just to comply with the advert description"comes with mountings etc". However thanks to r550s engineering prowess who provided me with a set of useable brackets and spacers it wasn't a problem.
