Title: belly pan
Post by: pixelmonkey on October 03, 2004, 02:31:22 PM
i want your thoughts and ideas on belly pans.

this is my first street bike with my own name on the title, and i'm not a fan of the exhaust being below the frame. *spent my life on a dirt bike*

i did a quick search with google and found a couple of company's that produce some parts for the gs 500 here (http://www.whaccessories.com/GS500Accessories.htm)

i like the look of this one (http://www.whaccessories.com/JasonGS500Can.jpg). *just a note here, i like my current head light and wont be switching*

so what are your thoughts on brands, locations to order from, and style?

thanks!

the exhaust below the frame really is the way to go, Dirtbikes are meant to plow through water and mud almost as high as the seat, hence the exhaust and Airsnorkle are alittle High. belly pan wont protect much impact wise, mostly for looks, or as racers use, to catch oil on a bottom end blowout.
