Tbh, I was looking on Stein Dinse last night and they sell black ones, not unreasonable price too.

The yellowy one will do until I need enough parts to justify the postage cost. In the meantime I'll give the splendid chaps at Moto Rapido a ring and see whether they've got black ones.

Most are grey now even though they advertise them as another colour hence why I sold the new ones on when received I have kept the white one. I have a spare but not perfect. People want the white ones but they wont mould them in that colour for some strange reason.

I replaced the original yellow slide/guard with a dark grey unit, don't remember where it came from but I think it was a Ducati dealer so presumably they make them in that colour now?

Must say it does look better than the yellow.
