RE: Side Cover Replacements - the Ferret - 06-22-2013
SWEET! Looks very sporty. Now the mirrors look out of place though.
Hows the wind behind that quarter fairing?

Supercruz,
How do you like those sliders? Any comments on installing them?
I have a set on order, but webike isn't shipping until next month.
RE: Side Cover Replacements - SUPERCRUZ_imp - 06-22-2013
Popgun - The sliders are Moriwaki brand from Webike Japan. I ordered these when I purchased my Road Comet faring. Webike had some deal that if you ordered X amount you received free shipping. The sliders allowed me to do that. These are nice pieces and installed very easily. Took about 30 Min. When I ordered them I screwed up and ordered them in white not looking at the fine print. That is the problem with Webike. Forget about sending them back as Webike would not allow me to return or exchange them. After attempting to sell with no takers, I simply prepped them with some adhesion promoter and sprayed them satin black with some Duplicolor bumper coater. More work than I anticipated but they turned out nice. Good luck with you sliders when you receive them. They do look nice on the bike.

Supercruz,
Thanks for the reply. I did order the Moriwaki's, and made sure I ordered the black ones, having read your experiance...
That was a really good idea to paint them. I figured someone with a white bike would buy them from you.

Cruz - Great looking ride. The fairing looks awesome and I like those sliders!
Buffalo Bill - they are available from Webbike. I agree, they are expensive, but the quality and color match are excellent.
I did like the silver, but agree with another poster on here that they somehow made the bike look incomplete.
Later!

Supercruz, I need your opinion on those sliders. Do you think they would/could work as poor mans highway pegs? They certainly look long enough?
just wondering
RE: Side Cover Replacements - SUPERCRUZ_imp - 06-25-2013
Ole - Guess they could substitute for poor mans highway pegs but one side is shorter than the other so they extend equal distance from the engine casings on both sides. Honestly, if you want highway pegs, I think you are looking at a set of crash bars with some pegs added to those to make it work.

I received replacement side covers in Candy Red from Webike Japan today. They were shipped on the 25th, so 3 only days shipping! But it took 17 days before they shipped. Decals are off, and I'm using goo gone to clean them up before applying the 3D emblems.

Cool. Can't wait to see your bike with them on.

I ordered an all black set on the the 19th, Webike says they'll be shipped on the 5th. Pictures to follow....
