Re: A Question Strangers ........it's a mirror thing.

I did have a UK spec 906 for a while and that had the same plates on as my 907 so maybe it was just the 750 as the buyer states. Interestingly it seems the Cagiva Freccia which was about around the same time with similar mirrors as the 750 had the bolt on type.

Dave Day 8/6/2024

Who was at the services having a Dave Day yesterday I saw you but was in need of fuel ( the pleasures of a tiny tank on a Streetfighter V2 ) so never had a chance to say Hi.

Re: 906 fairings to 907IE?

Yes it fits without any major issues just a bit tighter on the screw fixings, I also have a 906 front fairing with a smoked screen which I have used in the past. and although an after market unit and slightly thinner than the original that also fitted without issue.

Re: Lithium Batteries

Re: Lithium Batteries

Mmmmm thinking about getting one for my boat ....just a weight distribution thing

Stupidly low weight and size and ideal for solar top up. I actually looked at a couple of Jet Ski forums that recommended them - not that I still have one anymore.

Re: Lithium Batteries

Okay so here we have an up date. I was lucky in getting a NOCO Lithium NLP20 for less than half price and even cheaper than a good quality lead acid option, brand new boxed off an Ebay private seller about two months ago. The bike is still static as I am in the process of rubbing the panels downs fo...
