    Just noticed as well, the E-II had an optional bellypan (bottom left pic in brochure) BUT it's not simply the one from the 900 as I thought. There's a slight difference in the shape at the front top...

    I really want the matching helmet & boots though :D

    HAVE A NICE RIDE! indeed, chasing info on this one is certainly a journey...

    I wonder if they did them in the metallic red/black/gray as well though :? haha

    Not sure at all about the panniers though, they looked a bit iffy... Better pic of the bellypan & panniers if I can get it...

    My 750 has more power than yours, and I didn't even need to drill holes in my crankshaft :D

    They've actually grown on me a little since I got this brochure... Still much rather find an original bellypan though :D

    I'm not sure if they are you know Dave, might just be my crappy camera not showing the weld seam. I'll have to get the folder out & have a look now! :D

    Remember the 29R exhausts are different to 31A anyway, they don't have the rounded end design. I'm gonna have a gander at it in a minute...

    the mufflers that i have for the 750RL look identical to the 900rk mufflers, only a miniscule difference in length. The ones on the pic look:

    1. longer
    2. no angled weld near the front
    3. no cone at the back.

    Maybe that was one of the Euro differences? Interesting.......

    I took another look at your first big pic. Now I see where the weld is. Yeah, that's different than the 750rl.
