    hey Damus,

    Having put one togther last year, take your engine side covers to a welding shop and get them to weld some metal on your side covers , @XCite Bikes can hook you up with your step kit and the Metalgear brakes.

    Ahh ok, I'll look around to see if I can find any welding places.
    I will hit up @XCite Bikes and see what we can work out.

    Just a quick question on Lock wire.
    Is the purpose:
    A: to not lose nuts, bolts, caps ect
    or is it
    B: to actually hold nuts, bolts, caps ect in place so they dont come undone

    ????

    If u lock wire your nuts it gives u the balls to corner faster.

    B:
    If correctly lock wired the bolts won't be able to turn so even if they're vibrated lose they won't unscrew themselves.

    HA its funny I was actually about to ask if money was no object would it be better protection. But I guess that answers the question, + I dont want to be known as "wank factor". I would rather be known as "The pro of town" its got a ring to it. Would you guys mind calling me the pro of town? =p

    Is there a specific type of metal I should be aiming for here? Steel, aluminium ect or it doesnt matter?
    its kind of hard to imagine where one would get a random piece of metal thats perfect for the job.

    Have you considered making your own engine protector?

    I made my own Carbon/Kevlar weave protectors for my fizzer. The carbon gives them the strength and the Kevlar gives it the abrasion resistance.

    It'll cost you about $30 per side in materials, will be lighter, but the best bit is that if you ever use them, they're easily repairable! Just slap some more resin on and fill the effected area with some patches and boom! $5 repair!

    And yes, it does work, I've tested it twice ;) The 'store bought' ones aren't very thick so they grind through pretty quick. This one is about 10 layers thick, slid for ~50m and didn't touch any metal.

    All the materials should be available at your local fibreglass shop.

    You'll need epoxy resin & hardener.
    pvc release agent
    Cheap paintbrushes
    disposable mixing cups
    fibreglass cloth to make the first couple of layers to get the shape.
    Carbon/kevlar cloth.

    Hardest bit will be that you'll need to remove the engine covers from the bike so you can layer it.

    If there is enough interest I could whip up a quick guide.

    the pro of town-------how much a ride?pmsl.resin is not the best- ask for the west system which is a 2 part epoxy.wipe through the kevlar and carbon.the carbon is for appearance, the kevlar is the strength.take out to the bolt holes which will hold it on.is phenomally strong.

    If I don't care about the looks can I just not use carbon?

    the kevlar needs a protective coating. you could use fibreglass but carbon is stronger.
