Lo gang!
Feeling rather chuffed with myself this morning as I've just scored a complete clock shroud on ebay for £30 inc P&P on ebay. Its complete with all the blanking plugs, no rips around the the clocks and according to the seller even the lower cover fastenings are undamaged.

Second hand RT fairings run £400-500 (UK)  depending on condition with the fitting kit. God knows how much a new one is though...

if that was directed at me, i'm looking for the instrument shroud, like you just scored... not the monster fairing.
