bellypans... which one?

PFM 6 piston from west engineering in the Isle of Man. Top company - the guy caught a plane and hired a car just to come to my door with a foc replacement part. They work great with the OE master cylinder - braking on the shellgrip on motorway exits is a barrel of laughs. The rotors are really neat...I could go on.[img][img]http://www.pixilive.com/uploads/20071002/100_0796.JPG[/img][/img]

which ebayer did you get it from?

r550s · Post by **r550s** » Thu Oct 04, 2007 9:48 am

can't post links, sorry. Search ebay for 'R1100 s' - (the space between 1100 & s is important) & you'll find a geman item ref. DR122 sold by 'ricamb' or similar. its 40 quid plus 12 postage. The bit about 'comes with all the brackets' was utter fiction in my case. But I can knock you a set of brackets up in exchange for a packet of biscuits. We are 2 mins from M1 junction 36.[img][img]http://www.pixilive.com/uploads/20071004/100_0799.JPG[/img][/img]

cranked over? You bet, I was running along after it at the time.

heh, heh, heh, heh... that last line just tickled me. Cheers for the offer of brackets 550, I think I'll be in touch with a packet of Morrisons finest in the near future. I take it the above photo explains your username?

nearly right - R550 comes from twice seizing a piston, and twice dropping a valve. Drop in anytime - we've got another r1100s with something like the 'other' type of boxercup bellypan - doesn't come as far up the sides of the gearbox. Not too sure where that one came from though. You'd be able to compare both, and collect your brackets.

Just think................ If you'd been wearing rollerblades - you might have caught it

(if you'd been on a fireblade - you'd have overtaken it

)

I fitted my lovely belly pan after getting it prepped and sprayed. It seems to be a BCR shape rip-off, made from carbon matting. I bought it from a German ex-racer and it arrived in his (questionable) livery. Looked great until I bottomed it out, smashing it on the way into a car park - serves me right for taking a short cut...

Well R550, I've gone and committed myself, so I may be bobbing round at some point. 2 mins from junction 36? by my reckoning that puts you somewhere near 'The Company Shop'... plenty of biscuits in there...

carry on past the company shop, take the second right and look for the oil stains on the drive - number 11. I'll have the brackets ready for next week
