I guess your PA is a modern version of the air horns popular way back when I was a kiddlipuw. Some must've needed quite a few horns-Dukes of Hazzard tune has 12 notes (I think).

Ayup. S'pose a headlight cover gives lens protection, too. (coming from someone lucky enough to be following a Blade a bit too close, after the road was 'dressed' with chippings..) Anyway, back to the story.. I use a yellow bulb in mine. Looks good- black Strorm, yellow decals. Light output not real...

I have taken some photos, but I haven't got a clue how to get them up on the site.. Help!

Hey Kaz, Thanks for that. Keep the gags coming! After one of those link-to-a-link ganders, I spotted a set of m. extenders on an American's 'bike. They were made of aluminium (nee aluminum!) by a Don Hervey, in the States. I will dig out the details. I will post a picture, too. Just give me a day or...

Hi all. 'Joined some time ago-never got around to saying hello.
Last year I bought a set of mirror extenders, Al Hurvey I think.
Well made and effective.
As per Yellafella, it's good to know what's going on around you!
