I'm surprised that you're allowed out - at all :shock:

Here's another pic of Chris' Fibreglass bellypan yesterday:

Hard to tell the difference from 3ft.

Not much use to me, my BMW paddock stand fits in the lugs on the back of the frame...

Looked at the Ricambi Weiss website - tyre bead breaker for 49 Euros and balancer was cheap too. 12 Euros for postage. Paddock stands also cheap

Boxerscott, that looks like an NWS stand the bike's on. Did you have to modify it accommodate the taller BCR?

Bellypan v. smart by the way.

Thanks, I am pleased with it. The stand is specifically for the road bcr. Not bad, it works well and is adjustable but to be safe it needs an extra pair of hands to engage and disengage. :)

Hmmm, I've got an NWS stand to move on (needed an ABBA), so know it's a bit of a faff single-handed. Mine's an SS (yellow spring bla bla) but not as jacked up as a late BCR. It has a degree of height adjustment but I reckon yours has more holes in the moveable sections, i.e. more variance. I ask because someone with a late BCR expressed interest but binned the idea cos I couldn't state for sure that it would lift the rear wheel clear.

I had them painted up, I had my local sign company knock out some decals and then put them on myself. I took the pans back for lacquering over. (look nice I think but not clever if you have a scrape as whole jobbie has to be done again :cry: ) The idea is to keep my cf one in pristine nick.

Pan has to have 4 fixing holes drilled out (7mm) and 14mm hole drilled for sidestand cush. I also fitted some plaggy headguards so I could conserve my cf ones.

see what you think

I was lucky my 98 model colour coded (mandarin) came with the bike :)

IMO the NWS stand is the work of the devil :evil:

Not safe, single-handed operation (as I found out at great cost :oops:) and takes up huge amounts of space when not being used.

Best thing I ever did was sell and buy an ABBA :roll:
