Yes very funny  :-\ :-\ :-\

I got all the dry powder out of the engine (curtousy of the water board bloke that put the fire out!!!!!!!) and put it back on the road with all the scorch marks and melted plastic (on the outer cables) still in place. Didn`t half get some funny looks.

Yeah i thought so after putting these up.

CLIVE!!! frisco is high mounted tanks, skinny wheels, rake, z bars etc etc - pretty much what you see in dice magazine all the time.
