No really- this is the closest I have- getting back from a ride up Mt Glorious/ Mt Nebo/ Fernvale on Sunday.

Ok- my personal mechanic tried to fit the new Ermax hugger yesterday and they sent the wrong damn one!
This 'blinging' thing is frustrating!
This is what I ordered (only in black.)
Back to the drawing board!

That's good Neka.
I just got an email from the supplier- they are sending me out the correct hugger so it will be about a month before it is fitted if all goes well.
Note to self- NEVER order over the internet again! (Particularly from the US!)

i just emailed the guy i bought off ....after inspecting it, it doesnt seem up to what i would expect the quality to be... he wants pics , so im gunna do a dry fit and see how it goes before i get it painted... mind u its in 2 pieces- a single piece would alleviate the problem, but prob be much harder to fit??
good luck with urs tho!!

Got a UPS tracking no for the replacement hugger two days ago.....
"Yay".... I thought.... "That was better service"...... "They stuffed up and actually fixed their mistake promptly and without much fanfare and foot stomping."
Got a UPS email today saying that the delivery has been cancelled by the supplier......
Let the foot stomping begin!!!!!!
Any news on your ermax belly pan Neka?

Neka, did you buy the zx9 bolt to fit the ermax belly pan? The bolt on the right h/s on the z1000 is a touch too short, only just grabs with the extra width of the bellypan, the zx9 bolt is longer.
Wendy, that seat looks excellent

gold chain?? umm nah that would stick out like dogs.....
