Took a runout to Seaways cafe with a couple of mates,then down to Bridlington for fish and chips.Seaways was packed with bikes taking advantage of the weather, some nice bikes there.Knobhead of the day was the operator of the speed camera van parked totally blocking the cycle lane and half of the left hand lane on the dual carriage forcing all the traffic into the right hand lane.
Tommy,The Norton looks like a limited edition,only 50 made, Domiracer SS 961cc.Only about 3 years old and worth £30k plus if it's a genuine one.Spondon swing arm,Ohlins suspension and Brembo brakes.I'd love it.
Nothing.
Thought I'd try out one of the Halfords 120% brighter headlight bulbs seeing as they've been on 'sale' for the past 9 or 10 times I've been in there. Can't say I agree with the 120% brighter part but it's definitely and improvement over the original and its a much whiter light which I prefer.

Ultra / Osram / Philips etc...On the whole I was left quite disappointed. Just wasn't as bright or white as I had expected. Good to see you've achieved nice results.HID's are another matter however! But then you are dealing with the legalities (or lack of), bad light reflection (from a incandescent reflector etc), too hot for the light housing, MOT grey area, etc.

My 1959 BSA Super Rocket (650 A10 parallel twin) turned out a meagre 40 BHP, the Triumph Bonneville 1968 650cc at 46 BHP and the Thruxton Bonneville 53 BHP.Compared with the FZS 600 around 97 BHP. Yeah Fazer rules.Check out the polished aluminium bicycle pump under the fuel tank of the Dommie LOL
