Be one of the first to own our new Repsol Forum Reservoir Sock. These are high quality embroidered logos.

Dark Blue Sock:
1076
The dark blue closely resembles the Repsol blue of the '05 and '07 models. This color blends in with its surroundings and matches the overall look of the bike.

Light Blue Sock:
1075
The light blue closely matches the blue found on marketing materials and oil bottles. Although not matching the dark blue found on the bikes, it does add a nice contrast to the overall scheme.

I can't decide on which one I like best. I think I'm keeping one of each on hand to switch out depending on my mood. :)

Now available on the swag page:

They will have the Repsol Forum logo just like the stickers. They will be embroidered onto the sock like the sample ones I posted.

Take a look at these (and check out the bike)...i was selling these on 1000rr.net ...3 per set to cover all the reserviors. (1 large,2 small). If theres enough interest i could see about getting them made up again...glen. PS: I'll check on the price but i think $35.00 plus $3.00 shipping is the price...

Sorry guys/gal, I still haven;t received the socks. They should be in any day and I promise to ship them out all the pre-orders the day the come in.

Thanks for your patience on this. :)

Okay, I got the socks but there is a slight problem. The colors don't match the sample provided. The logo looks absolutely awesome, but the sock color is not even close.

Here is the sample image they sent of the sock:

1016

And here is the product I received:

1017

As you can see, it's not at all like the dark navy blue that I requested.

However, I kinda like the lighter blue. It closely matches the colors of the Repsol oil bottles.

So, what do you want to do. I've already contacted the manufacturer about the problem, but I'm thinking some people, (even me) might like the lighter version.

Let me know what you all think. Sorry for the mix up.

Hello?

What do you guys think?

To the guy who have already reordered, do you want me to send out the light blue ones or do you want to wait just a bit longer till I get the darker blue version?

What do you guys think?

Were I going to order a pair (still debating), I would prefer the darker blue as it matches the bike better. I don't see me carrying around any Repsol bottles for the socks to match... ;)

I think I asked somewhere in the forum...but not sure if I got an answer.
Will the sock be snug enough for the smaller reservoir....the one on the left.

They appear to fit just fine. I may take a colorful zip-tie to secure them for higher traveling speeds.:evilgrin:

Big Kahuna......how does ordering the stuff from the swag link work when I'm located in Oz? I would suggest postage isnt included like it would be with orders locally in the states otherwise you might have to sell that fancy Repsol you have there to afford all the overseas postages if you get fludded with orders!! :D

I'm after...
2 dark blue socks
2 repsol sticker
1 key chain

Do you wanna send me a paypal bill for those items with the applicable postage cost? How you want to work it?

+1 for BK and Repsol Forum

So did I buy the last of the dark blue?? I notice they're now sold out. Are you going to get more?? I think now that I've seen that, I'm not sure I'll give one to the next Repsol owner I meet. I think I'll put it away in a safe place just in case my other one "grows legs". To answer Repsol47's question, I've been running around for about 1200 miles with one on each side. The clutch side is sorta loose, but I just keep an eye on it.

I guess you could zip tie it like Bdendad did...but it would still appear loose.
