Struggling with the camera, and lack of daylight. Another step closer tho.
Mufflers will have to wait a bit for the full treatment, but I'll give them a hand job at least.
Crashbars detract so much, I've decided. Well mine did anyhow.

Oooo, an upskirt pic. With moody lighting too. Very sexy.
Looking very nice, Jeff.

Now, where are you going to mount your big driving light?
Will it fit on the GoPro mount on your helmet?

Is purdy look'in Jeff..

Mate a nice set of crash bars look the goods, now you just get back on that Germany ebay and give that credit card a bloody good work'in out and get yourself a nice new shiny set.

I had a white ex copper 83 r100rt years ago and had the middle cross pipe removed, did a before and after dyno test only because a mate had access to the machine, made a little difference if I remember correctly but not much in it really.

I kinda like the idea of a 2" kick ass led driving light that has a body like a bullet microphone. I'd make a mounting bracket that fits under the RS mirror mounts so the light could sit in 'just the right place' in front of the mirror. Vibration may be an issue tho.

Get the biggest ones you can run Jeff, my two are about 20w each and I think they're about all I run , especially if I turn on the heated grips too ... or maybe my battery is getting a bit past it ?
