Debbie likes to have a few pieces of bike jewelry on her bikes so I ordered some carbon fiber. Lee |

Now that I like! Very pretty indeed. I’ll look up the cost as it might be indelicate to ask here. |

Zitat von Oscarguitar im Beitrag #2 $155 US and $10 shipping from Canada to the US. Same price for the battery side covers. Don't know what they would charge for shipping to the UK.

I like those a lot, but the site reminds me of something I've seen on other sites, BMW's accessory site included.

The covers fit good. Lee |

Had the disappearing grommet issue with my 20 R1250Rs and also a friend's 2021RT. Found the grommets missing shortly after purchasing the bike (wiring in a DIN socket), and then promptly lost the new one I installed. |

Looks great, Lee! Waiting to see what part is next. The CF rabbit hole runs deep |

Zitat von duccrazydave im Beitrag #9 Not planning to dig very deep :) I just like having a few accents. I'm going to get the same pieces for my bike.

Zitat von Unkgd im Beitrag #8 I was lucky and never lost any on our 2016s. On the battery cover I would put my finger tip on the back of the grommet when putting the battery cover back on. I don't think the shop would have had the left battery cover off during setup so the grommet is probably back at Germany :) The cover does not feel loose without the grommet but I might get a couple extras if we stop at the shop in the spring. I have extra body fasteners. If you have extras on hand you never lose one :)

Thanks for sharing these photos! I love the carbon fiber look. I just ordered a Carbon Fiber center gas tank strip from Tekarbon as it was a little cheaper and shipping was faster than from Motocomposites. I also ordered the R&G Carbon protectors for the valve covers. MY bike has crash bars fitted but one of the covers has some minor scratches from the first owner and the carbon will look really nice covering that up. I'm thinking about getting both the dash panels and the battery cover as you have. My last bit of Carbon that I'm considering is the center vent in the front fairing. I'll share photos here once the tank piece and valve covers are installed! |

Zitat von SoCalR1200RS im Beitrag #12 Let us know how the quality is with the tank center. The narrow slits in the sides can be a little tricky to make. We had Carbon Fiber tank centers on our K1300S bikes.
