    Default Bonnet Lagging

    During the winter a mouse decided to chew a hole in the insulation lagging on the underside of the bonnet on my zt260se so I am looking for a replacement one.
    Sometimes sideways but always forward fast

    Don't worry about it, you really don't need it.
    Besides...............having it off helps with engine cooling

    I removed mine to save weight. (better acceleration)

    No seriously, It was dropping, and to help disperse heat.

    Neither the paintwork nor my vinyl stripes have been effected by not having one
