The mudsling fitted the bike perfectly as did the Avant engine cover. The two light brackets went on without bother although two points are worth noting. 1st, the brackets require a longer screw, M8 x 45mm, to fit them if, like me, you have crash bars fitted. As you don't find this out until the parts arrive it could have been very frustrating while you attempt to source a longer bolt. I was ok as I had a long pair of bolts spare that I could cut down so no hold up for me. (NB The instructions on NN site are not the same edition as those that come with the parts as the long bolt is not mentioned on NN version, I will send them an update). 2nd, I found that the stock light on the N/S when mounted could not be angled correctly as a fin was hitting the crash bar. I rectified this by removing about 10mm of the fin. I can say that these parts were very well made, excellent fit and should go a long way to keeping the engine cover and rear spring protected. NIPPY NORMANS SAYS - Thanks Ian - instructions updated and mention of bolts updated.

Good quality kit which was easy to fit - complete numpty and still easy. Protects bike from mud and resulting corrosion. Pricey but worth it!

Impressive kit. The MudSling was hard to fit as bolt wouldn’t line up. After a bit of faffing about I realised that the pannier rack was getting in the way so loosened that off which sorted the problem and then tightened it.
