Good advice from Nooj. It was what I was trying to say really. It's a bonus if the bungs save your fairings, but it's the engine that's more important. You can ride home with a cracked fairing, but not with a hole in your engine casing.

Would you feckin believe it! The missus has just this second got back from work and....... dropped her bike in the garden.
Muppet.
Everything's still intact, nothing that's bolted on is damaged, but I expect the Givi arms will be bent as the top box touches down when the bike is on it's side. Though saying that, they may actually have been re-straightened, as I believe it went down on the other side last time.
;D
Will get a price on 636 bungs later, their site is down ATM, seems they could do with some website crash protection. Ha ha!

Top advise Nooj. R&G are the only ones worth going for.

If you can let me know, that'd be fab. Will come and get them done as soon as I have some spare money.
Did you get my message about the bike festival?

ZX636A £108.67 inc.VAT. That includes a replacement expansion tank. Bungs come in a choice of black (nice) or white (will show every scratch and bit of dirt).
Got your message about the show, thanks. It's been added to my 'to do' list.

Seems they don't do engine case sliders for your year bike, only up to '06. They do have bungs though:Nooj

Aero style ones as well, nice! £78.60 inc. postage & VAT if you're interested, plus I'm doing free fitting for the forum if you buy them through me.

Them Aero ones are good, got four of them on my R6, the stickers came off though on the plugs for the holes, I emailed R&G and they sent some more out for me for free which was good of them!

They sent me a free sheet recently, they're normally a quid a sticker! Anyone that comes in with a sticker missing, give them a replacement they said. That's more than you'd get from a lot of companies, quite good I thought.

Safety is sooooo expensive! Top helmet = £300+, leathers the same. £100 for crash bungs, spare fairings are £300+.... It's enough to make a grown man weep! Worth every penny, but I do wish it was a little more affordable at times...
