1988 rebuild update
-
Finally found the last piece I needed, disc guard extension/caliper protector. Had to buy a job lot of bits to get it but selling parts I don't need, some surprisingly decent white early side panels came with it as well. Also found another 88 in crates, when I finish 89 bike it's got my name on it, that will definitely (probably!) Be the last one...........

Mint still like the silver grey seat better though mate. Its that the nos tank in the picture ?
-
Out of the blue received notification csml had new scoops in raspberry red, snapped them up, just the one pair, chuffed! Bike has been sidelined recently while building the 89, intend to use fully when the weather starts to improve.
-
£70 odd quid exc postage, which is expensive from csml, just over £100 inc vat. And they use UPS who in my experience would have trouble sealing an envelope let alone delivering anything. I think I must be on a blacklist with them, had more failed deliveries via UPS than all the others put together and they don't give a f*** when you phone customer services in the UK, rant over
-
The more I think about it the more annoyed I get, seems a deliberate attempt to mislead, suspect csml were equally unaware (I hope so anyway)
@oldman For the price you paid, I would be rejecting that white panel. As far as I know, the panels should not be painted and should be a raw finish.
It could have been a seconds reject, either way I wouldn't be keeping it as it would look well off.
Always Originate, Never Pirate!

Definitely not, original plastics solid colour throughout, if I scratch this one it's going to show white in the scratch. Not much good for a dirt bike
