madmike Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Can anyone on here make carbon engine covers? Or know somewhere I can get them, I've already started a shopping list for my CBR600F that I'm collecting in Jan. Nothing tacky or stuff that will ruin the "all original" feel of the bike, I just want to protect it! Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2moto Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Carbon fibre is actually not very good at protecting engine casings, etc. You need something that is very good at resisting abrasion, i.e. Kevlar. If you find any ready made, make sure they contain several layers of Kevlar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwakbiker Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Could always have a go at making your own if you cant find any, some kits on ebay, think im gonna have to do this to my ZZR as its to old to have bits like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evilchicken0 Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 I think the kevlar / carbon covers are just covers they don't replace the original they just sick over the them. Fit those extra tough covers and you'll gain kudos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
