making a bike out of bits i have in the garage -- i thought all gp,li,sx etc panels fitted on any bike li,gp etc

But it seems these sevetta type pannels ( clip on type) i have dont fit on this gp frame i have - different angle at the back -

i'm sure i had these panel on a gp before, any ideas

they should fit ,something must be out on the frame ,have you any other panels you could try ?

I did exactly the same a few years ago with clip on "LI" type panels on a GP150- was a good fit.

Has the GP frame had a clout in the rear??

That's what I was thinking or maybe been stored/transported on end

Looks like your right a think its been stored before I had it stood up it off by about 5mm will have to bend it out what's the best way car jack:-D

I've just tried a couple of panels on my GP and seem to have the same problem!

Is there an easy way to sort this?

Hi guys,from past experience many people seem to bend the spring type hook to get a tighter side panel fit stopping the panels falling off down the road ,thus bending the rear of the frame at the same time

Bear in mind that the panel buffers play a part in pushing the bottom of the panel out which has the effect of pulling the ends in a fair bit. I would fit the rear runners and make sure the rear supports aren't bent in as well. I had a bit of trouble with my Jet getting the panels to clip on but found fitting the buffers and bending on of the supports out fixed it
