Thanks keithy2 & Greatescape, the frame guards are cut out from some self adhesive carbon fibre sheeting I bought from a UK eBay shop a couple of years ago left over from the DRZ. From memory it was about �20 for a foot square. It's the nice thick stuff stays put & lasts ages. I just cut some templates out of paper till I was happy with the shape before cutting the sheeting. I also put a patch on the front of the frame In between the frame oil drain plug & bash plate where it gets a bit of a hammering from the front wheel on gravel roads.

When I drilled the holes for the Zip ties on the sprocket cover I also de-burred them to take off any sharp edges with a larger drill bit.

I really do like the fact I can visually inspect the front sprocket now to see what's going on in there easily without having to take anything apart.
