Hi SteveD

I already had Metal Mule panniers so have fitted the new rack. Unlike other racks it fits on top of the hand rails. It�s really solid and has stopped the number plate vibration. The boxes are pricy but I have found them as tough as hell.

I was not able to get the sump guard and bar fitted from Yamaha so have one on order from Metal Mule.

I will try to get pictures in the next few days.

I managed to fit a pair of Acerbis Multiplo T handguards tonight.
The only stumbling block was having to drill up the bars to enable the expanding bar-end plug to go all the way home. You'll need a 13.5mm drill bit. The material cut very easily so a battery drill was sufficient.
Put all the screws in the assembly before you tighten anything of them up.
Watch the front brake pipe banjo bolt, it may need turning up a bit to clear the alloy bar on the righthand side. Just slacked the banjo bolt enough to turn it, this will prevent air entering the brake system.
I've decided to bin the bar-end weights, whats a bit of vibration amongst friends.....
All in all I'm please with the look and protection offered by these handguards. They should save the levers when (not if!) I fall off.......:laughing7:

Next job is to fit Pirelli MT21 tyres and rimlocks.

Hi Tony 1960, just for clarification, did you install that cigarette plug or did your bike come with it?

I'd like to know also, because I do not have it on my 2009 :)

I think that's a 12v accessory socket, not a cigarette socket. The space it's fitted in (same as mine) just isn't big enough to get a cigarette socket in.

You need to fit them yourself, they cost about �10 from Halfrauds (in the UK) or Maplin etc. You'll also need to install an auxilary circuit (+ & - supply from the battery, ingition feed from say the brake light switch. wired into a relay and out of that you get a 12v supply that is on/off with the ignition)
