That is mint! Seen one similar not long ago. U want one so I can wake up every morning and just look at it

Hi from Wales!

Hi! Great find!

These are the bars



I bought the specifically because they were no drill but thinking about it I don't think they will protect the bike as much as drilled ones as the tank may become part of the bike protection lol.

Ah ok. So I could just use the new bar which goes through the frame to knock out the existing bolt?
I assume the Allen key head on the pic is used to tighten the bolt to the nut on the brake pedle side?

Hi. Tried to install the above today. Got stuck straightaway. I couldn't undo the Allen bolt on the attached. Do I need to remove the castle nut first and if so anywhere I can pick one up apart from fleabay? The only instructions I got with the protectors are the very generalised ones attached below...

He usually charges around 85p per mile one way. I broke down once. I got Swinton breakdown cover. A guy who knew nothing about bikes was se...

I will check that 2moro. Sounds like a good excuse for some of those fancy tyres

My mind tells me if I use 98 my carbs will be happier. My mind is most likely wrong.
