Belly Pan Mesh

I had the belly pan off today to change the oil and filter so I thought I'd add some mesh to protect my poor headers. It's been done by people on this site from ages ago and I thought it was something quick and easy to do. I bought some cheap mesh that had 6mm gaps in it for about £4.50 for a metre square. I just used a pair wire-cutters to chop it to about 15mm larger than the hole and I used a tube of epoxy putty to stick it down with for a few quid so it was a nice cheap mod.

Here you can see it from the inside and how I stuck it down:-

Here it is from the front before putting it on the bike:-

And on the bike again from a bit further away:-



Later on, I'm probably going to add another layer of mesh behind it as I have loads left so the gaps are 3mm and it will stop smaller stones and stand out a bit more.
