I think I might have better luck trying to find hens teeth but here goes..........I am looking for a pair of airbox covers that fit between the tank and side panels, preferably in black. Anyone got a spare pair for sale please ?.

bike bandit still lists them new  $150 USD each  :bug_eye
have you checked with a dealer they might still be available new .....although the prices will scare you off.

I have a whole bunch of stuff in the loft, I'll check on Saturday and see if I have some spare you can have.
Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

If they are broken or cracked, don't throw them away. I can put you in touch with a man that can do an excellent repair job on even the worst, not cheap but excellent.
I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint

Ok mate. I'll see what's about. Of all the fairing spares I have these are the ones where the little tabs seem to snap off.

I seem to remember some guy making fibreglass copies on ebay... do you remember that or am I losing it?  :^_^

Haven't come across the fibreglass ones. I sent one with a jigsaw puzzle to Joe at Stansa Plastics and he basically made a new end for it rather than join all the broken bits. Top job.
