Those rocker guards look nice.
Sorry, but I don't like the belly pan either.
Where did the headlight protector come from?
Cheers
Headlight protector is from Slip Screen :

Personal choice on Belly Pan - I like it , others will , others won't , would be boring if we all agreed on everything

The belly pan looks better now I can see the extent of it - but some sponsor decals might "lift" it - as you are thinking yourself?
As you say - one man's meat......................

They look tidy. Does the weave match the hugger?
Its not an exact match but they don't look mismatched if you know what I mean , they are far enough apart that you cannot really notice . Got a cracking deal this afternoon , local guy on Gumtree selling a Ilmberger Carbon Rear Brake line Cover off a GS , checked original plastic part number and they matched so bought it for just £20! and that is an exact match .

Looking good John. If you don't like the lettering, it comes off quite easy. I'll see it in the flesh next year. Sorted the riv nut problem and all the tail tidy wiring but not going to fit everything yet as I need to get the shocks serviced. Have a good Christmas and New Year

So following on the Belly Pan and decals theme here are the decals that I have (thanks Dave for the BMW Motorrad ones) . So where and in what orientation is the consensus on sticking them ? Constructive comments only on Belly Pan locations and nowhere else lol

Only just had a good look at your cylinder cover........... covers - those are very clever !
Decals? The motorrad one has to be level or slightly down at the front I think. (on the bellypan sides) Is it possible to gauge the look by blu-tacing the decal in position and standing back for a look?
Not sure about the R1200s one?

And a lot cheaper than Ilmberger!!! I thought about trying to mount them the same as the BCR until I saw the cost of the BCR studs!!!! over £26 each.....X8
