As the Haynes Roadster is 2" wider than the lo-cost & other similar 7's , I suspect the answer is no !!
I know a number of members have bought panels not made for the Roadster & have had to do a fair bit of work to get them to fit ( Usualy by cutting them in half & adding a bit ) To be honest, personally, I would buy the Saturn bodywork .... Top notch & a fraction of the cost of Westfield's pannels

The difference between the skinny and fat boy slim westy is in the tunnel not the body work, it doesn't fit the Locost or the Haynes...it's somewhere between the two so some messing to get it to fit.
Just buy the Saturn grp as it DOES fit.... Westy wide bonnets are £330.........how nuts is that |
