Finally got an R1100S

Hi all.
I recently found a letter and brochure from BMW following a test ride on an R1100S in 2002... and now I own a 21k mile '99 Mandarin version. Really clean with a nice bit of history but no heated grips or luggage. However, I was delighted to find it had the GPR Tri silencers fitted as they weren't even mentioned in the ad.
Anyway, I've just managed to pick up a used BMW carbon belly pan and it's got me thinking of the possibility of turning it into either a Boxer Cup rep or an endurance race rep. I'm in no rush but it's an idea. Out of interest does anyone know of a supplier for carbon head covers for the 4 spark version? There seems to be plenty for the 2 spark.
Cheers,
Tim.
