That's the one including the ridiculous little built in panniers

So for those of us that don't mind looking like a Honda Silverwing BMW have kindly designed that bit more protection. I managed to live with it fitted for 12 months then it got too much. Now it's hiding somewhere in the shed.
Didn't realise you'd removed the kit - joined the vain brigade eh?

Just have the two front bits on. Too much work to take them off.

same here! In the process of fitting the PUIG panels to see if they make a difference. Will report back accordingly.
(i am trying to upload pics of the front mounting points for the RT-P protection bars but the innernet must be shit here atm coz after 8 hours on this site and photobucket, they're still uploading!)

I digress slightly but what would a good K1 be worth now, more than I just got for my GTL I'll bet.

On my 2011 twin cam I fitted a mudflap to the front of the inner rear mudguard.
The result is less road crap flung at the rear stand, exhaust clamps and the lower shock/mount.
Costs less than a tenner and easy to fit :-)
