MMMMMMMMM Green Carbon

I have asked the question if they will make me some ram tube covers in the same colour, waiting on a reply.
This was extremely easy to install once the original protector was removed. Very pleased with the fitup & result.
Will take some better pictures next ride!

Hey Bean $194.00 to my door, not cheap but hey quality doesn't come cheap!
Yes had a read, and as I suspected it is at the discretion of the constabulary, unfortunately we have a couple up here who like to ping riders for this particular mod!
So will see how I go with it.

Is that the real thin carbon fiber mat the GC makes tank covers with? I have seen it in natural but first time I've seen it with a colored clear coat.

Anyway, I have had to re-coat some carbon fiber before, after cutting on it, and used epoxy resin (clear) to coat it, which is basically what they use.

There is no reason that cannot be tinted just about any color.

You can't make the actual carbon fiber threads a different color from natural as far as I know, it won't soak up the color so cannot be "dyed". Unless someone has figured out how to in the last few years. Heh.

Looks good on your green bike!
