What do you think the chances are of me finding a bellypan (bottom fairing) for the R6, before it takes Yamaha to get it here (10th June)or do you think desperation has clouded my view!!!

Cheers.

There was a bike on ebay a while ago which was being completely stripped & most parts sold off. Maybe have a look on there ?

F@ck the garage. If I were you I'd buy if yourself & get if knocked off thier bill (or drop it off & get reimbursed). Only way to make sure you get it (in my opinion).

Yep, that's exactly what's gonna happen. However, this part has white graphics on t, whereas mine has Silver. Might just get it anyway.

Is it this you're talking about:



If so, surely you could just remove the stickers & get some made up in whatever colour you desire.

That's the one... To be honest, if it means I get the bike back asap, then i'll get it.

Update....Appears thtis is the wrong part. It came off a blue R6 which has a graphite kinda finish. The black ones are a kinda shiny finish.

Many thanks for that, however, they only have the ones from the blue bike..ie the mat black/graphite colour.

Thanks for your help though.
