Clamshell wings
Has anyone used these on a recent build? Do they make any SVA problems easier?

My Cat went thru' the SVA on Clams, but failed first time on the bolt heads underneath the wings, believe it or not! They'd have had to
get past the hot exhaust on the off side first too!
Didn't seem to make any difference around the front suspension either, still had to cover everything up.
I've subsequently changed to cycle wings anyway, wish I'd fitted them first.

May make things a bit tricky in fact!
To look right the front tip of the wing should be vertically above the front of the wheel, however for SVA the front of the wing must be at least
above the front of the tyre if you get my drift, was thinking of trying to ponce a set of cycle wings for the SVA then swap to clamshells once passed
casuse you really dont want to have to fit them twice, that's the problem as far as lolocost told me as to how they should be fitted and I
checked photos to see exactly what he meant, he also said the RH and LH moulding where slightly different but I couldn't see it in the pair I
bought, comlete scunner like, cause you see them on ebay for sweetie money and I shelled out good money for mine.
p.s. sorry for not getting back to you for a gas cause I'm moving to Fife next wednesday I've been totally stressed out over the last few
weeks trying to get things organised
