Side panels

Postby Cgt75b » Sun Dec 12, 2021 1:44 pm

Hi

Has anyone used the remade panels from Buzzsolomoto and the like, how do they fit and sit on the scooter?

Any feedback would be appreciated please.

The series 1 or 2 bare metal panels are too short and leave a larger than standard gap between rear runner and bottom of panel ,
i learnt the hard way !!

Sean burns got me some from buzz that he sent back because they were "all wrong". I've no idea what the issue was but there obviously was one. The replacement set were perfect. This was for a LI special.

I've since used another set for a regular series 3 LI, again from Buzz which were spot on.

I guess the message is that they are inconsistent but can be good. As the Mr Loaf says, "2 out of 3 ain't bad"

I’ve used two sets of pressed steel ones from Buzz series 1/2 fit , both fitted fine with correct gaps one set in 2019 one earlier this year
