well today i went off to the anodisers and got me bolts n ally bits  managed to get the gear and brake lever fitted n mounted up today.
the anodisins great lookin. look like new bolts. ally bits look good too altho ive learnt a lesson. polish stuff before it goes in cos ya can still see all the scratches from before. still look better than they did tho  
so heres the pics....

Hand guards were £8 each according to description at top of pic.

I also need both filter covers, interesting to see the price.  :)

Just checked Bikebandit, $138, about £90 each  :shock:
