Hey guys, if no one knows this here then I am sunk!
I am rebuilding my wife's beloved raptor for her birthday and need to know where can I buy carbon? Before the end of the month :-)

Road racing's where it's at - going round in circles all day is for hamsters.

Hah, no, I think they have (had) their own. Yeah the chainguard would be nice, if they'd do it in a twill weave, which it sounds like they should if you can speaka da lingo to them.

I think some of the SV/TL bellypans didn't quite fit due to the exhaust routing, but this one from TrendItaly fit very nicely. It hung beautifully at the front but flared out slightly towards the rear so I ended up using the smaller spacer where the larger one "should have" been, and cut the larger spacer in half to make a more-appropriately-sized new smaller spacer, and Robert's your mother's brother.

I can't quite make up my mind about the rad spoilers though, whaddya reckon?
