i think a 2003 R1 rear end would look better, less lardy etc.that the one with the thin strip light. a Bird that handles takes some catching!

I think this old blade rear looks crappy, but 929 could be an option.

With the temperature due to drop over night I thought it best to get some heated grips

Only took 30mins to fit , they get hot fast ,let's hope they last a few years as I was crying parting with £80 for them :-(

Now there's a challenge. Out of all the big fast tourers, the ZX12R was the prettiest to me.
I'd love to see what you can do with the Bird, I have every confidence in you...
(CK will go out to his bike and find the RSV looking a lot like a Blackbird)

Still a bloody woman because you fitted them at all. Just get some decent bloody gloves, I've recently got a pair of Halverssons winter gloves (to go with my new jacket) and they're perfect for anything. I was wearing summer gloves until last weekend for christs sake
