I'm after some advice about flaring the sidepanels on my car, and to see some pics if anybody has any?
I made a mess of mine when I crashed the indy, but I had been thinking of flaring the sidepanels anyway - the idea is to put a flared section from the
front suspension (maybe enclosing the area around the suspension mounts) back to around the area of the scuttle.
My current sidepanels are all mangled on one side around that area, so I was thinking of cutting them back and fixing some aluminium panels for the
flared section.
What thickness should I use and where do I get the aluminium from?
Thanks
James

Couple of pics of my very work-in-progress "slash cut" sides. They're designed so that I can get access to engine bay, pedal box and
battery (in passenger footwell) without disturbing the headers, suspension, etc.

Looks like a 600SRAD to me??? My first bike was a P Reg 600 SRAD and I loved it!!!
Just a slight cut,open,fibreglass it,paint
just wondering: how effective are all these solutions in providing additional reduction of heat?

Not with the small section rear wheel/tyre and twin exhaust cans, more like an RGV250 i think.
SRAD 600 was my first bike too, always have a bit of a soft spot for them... happy days![]()
