Ah no not to worry, can't really blame them coming this close to Christmas really can you?

They'll get to it eventually, in the meantime I've been trying to buy a stainless steel rack for the rear of the bike but the company let me down in Japan so I'm inclined to get another bottle of TIG welding gas and just do it myself.............

I've got a stainless rack from Japan, never fitted it because it doesn't fit the C90C type bike.

Weighs a ton too as it's made out of bar rather than tube and there are no pannier loops on it either.

Well bar is stroger than tube :)

If you'd think about letting it go for a couple of quid is there any chance of a pic Dave?

These are available to order, I do not have any in stock. I was thinking of getting another order of screens/boxes in March next year. Still trying to get my hands on some boxes for now... proving hard to do.

Been postponed till Friday with the boxes. Called today, they did not receive the resin from the supplier in Birmingham. They're hoping to get it by Thursday.

They are so busy that they are turning down jobs... imagine that, this late in the year. They will make the second box and let me know of the costs. It's just a matter of time. Hope it won't be too late for Anigai... :roll:

I'm going to start crying if this keeps up :( :cry: :cry: :cry:

Busy I can understand but if they've already said to you that they can do it but they aren't pushing too hard for it then I'm not sure what to think, don't they have some sort of job queue system along the lines of he was here first type of thing?

This box is something I really do want for the trip though and I'm trying to get parts from Japan as well with some delays onother things which might force me to push back my departure date..................

currently at least 7 Rickman top boxes on ebay,and doubtless other classic looking ones on as well,might be worth looking into it if your desperate :-)
