Default Any of you guys protect your frame w/ carbon ?

By frame i really mean where you knees would go when riding the bike, it can often rub a bit and i have seen some bikes with the dark grey/black frame paint faded there.... my bike has only done 5,000 miles so want to keep it '' un rubbed '' for as long as possible. I was thinking of say a sheet of carbon and then cutting it down to a strip etc and puting it either side .... anybody do anything similar ?

There's a company that makes cf frame guard for many bikes. My German is non-existent but they didn't have the 954 listed as one of the bikes. Just the 1000rr and CB 1000.

So yes, it's been done. It's actually a popular mod for the bmw s1000rr. The frame can get anywhere from uncomfortably to unbearably hot, especially on the left side where the engine vents more.

I have never seen anything like these, which surprises me as there are carbon bits & bobs for virtually all parts of the bike.

Some nice pieces there.... but you guys over the pond have all the good stuff, i am in the UK .... WE GET BUGGER ALL !!

I like the top yoke cover but my bike has the HISS imobilizer system so i am not sure it will fit.
