Just finished fitting the plates, I think it makes a huge difference to both the backside look of the bike and the seating position.
Many thanks to Cavia and Steve, your advice was really helpful.
Only thing I have to sort is the chain clearance. When on the stand the chain is resting on the exhaust. When I sit on the bike though and ride it is fine but I would still like the clearance when it is on stand. I will look at adjusting the chain slightly I think.
Any other suggestions welcome.
