andy_290 Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Bloody hell did it come off or what? I'd speak to MRS, they were Scorpa importers before Sherco and will possibly be able to point you in the right direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy_290 Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 (edited) Nightmare! I always think something like that's going to happen to me, but I've got 2 ratchet straps holding mine on the back of the car on the bike rack so if one goes the other will hold it. One around the back wheel and through the eye on the rack, the other up past thr frame and round the bars, about Edited February 24, 2006 by arturner51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrybaines Posted March 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 OK here are the make and details of the primer and paint i used Tetrosyl Plastic primer and the paint was also Tetrosyl color match but the primer tin says it will work with any tetrosyl paint I must say it is good stuff the gaurds taken a few bashes already even got a few scrapes into the plastic it self, still pressure wash it and no flaking at all (TIP I did use about 3-4 thin coats of the primer) Hope this all helps Barry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
