Very Happy
Make your own mate !!
yellow pages, PLASTICS SUPPLIERS.
buy a rod of 2" nylon
cut to desired length, drill out centre (hole just for bolt.
Then re-drill centre again with bigger drill so bolt goes deep into plastic.
hey presto
crash bung.
costs about £10.00 for a meter of this stuff.
WARNING ..dont have bolt too long, it can act like a lever and bend your frame.
cheers. Laughing

I got some zx10 ones, and attatched them to a stong part of the fairing. Should help in a low speed crash, but in a highspeed theyed probaly rip off. Ill post some pictures.

Hi

I would suspect that on the fairing they stand as much chance of doing hard as they do of doing any good. For example on the old NS125R the indicators were mounted on the fairing directly, whereas on the old AF1 they were mounted through the fairing onto a metal subframe rail (the fairing support). If an AF1 fell off its stand the indicator would be destroyed, but the fairing would be OK. With the NS the indicator would pump a hole through the fairing

Mount the mushrooms on something solid

All theb est

You know the old RK model??? There really is nothing to mount them on. Its a solid point and theres some fat washers behind it.
