I've used Crosspro before and the quality is top drawer, easy to fit and you get everything you need.
It's pronounced 'twenty-one-twelve'

I've just had one delivered from Cosmo, absolutely spot on, and arrived from Greece 48 hours after ordering.

Is that to fit the bash plate?
I don't think you have to remove a sidestand bolt for fitting.

Hello Mojo, yes with this kit, was a bugger, couldn't find my lump hammer so had to use one of my sons 12kg weights to thump the old ratchet, any way it came off, bloody tons off lock tight. Plate now installed.
