Thanks found them & just ordered some black aluminnium ones.
I'm ordering some later on muself for the 20th run up to yours. So I reckon 16 44 gearing, 12k service and tad guards should do me fine this month

Good choice Sir....That's what I have...perfect fit, and they look good too. :thumbup
Mind you, I'm told they are pretty easy to knock out of old B&Q meshing at about a fiver a pop. (useful if you get stranded and feel like having a barbie whilst waiting for the AA :yes)

Watch out with that gearing I'm on 16-42 & getting no more than 80 miles before reserve light comes on. Got witnesses that can vouch.
Intensive riding, but isn't that the point.
I'm getting about 130 miles at the mo Mick and hardly get into 6th. It'd just take mine up from standard on a Gen one to the same as stix's and he's getting about 130 out of a tank also on 16 44 but can get into 6th more than me. Just feel like a change. If it doesn't work can always swop back

Just cut them neat and they will press in to a couple of places. I held mine sturdiererer by passing some thin copper wire through the rad fins and twisting it together.
I did a step through for the old site. Be gone though. Mind you, Bats did the same, I bet he's still got the noddy guide.
