I have just the smaller lower bars which you hardly notice, I think the issue with the bungs on fzs600 is where they fit to protect just provides a pressure point on the frame whereas the bars spread the load, and on our bikes the bungs have to be so large inorder to stickout further than the bits protected that they too look ugly. other bikes can get away with mushrooms or shorter bungs.

 

and riding around power rangers on there super dooper    rc08`s - gsxr1000` -  fireplaces - arse 1`s

Those boys seem to think they are very cleaver going very fast in a straight line.

I fitted engin bars but not the ugly full ones, it is just the smaller shorter  lower ones. I did look into the crash bungs but I heard that they can actualy bend your frame as they are adding a  pressure point  whereas the bars spread the stress
 

My bike was parked round the back at Jack's Hill - and the stench of sewage was rank. Made me feel queasy after that butty!!

Mate ---- that was the Bacon buttys
 
I for one was thankfull and enjoyed it and it was via a voucher given at the mornings reg (hinckley for me ) Last week i was asking if i could reg on the day and as it turned out i could and so were plenty others 

Those skirt things wont work as the noise is not under there, it is around your head. Im gonna give slimwillys idea a go (lift my shoulders and move my head back) --- see if I can do it without falling off

I am 5"8 and had a standard screen and got a double bubble one went out for a run with normal and quickly put on the bubble for a test ----- no difference. The only way to get out of the wind is to lay on the tank which makes you look stupid. Some combo of screen and your height can just change constant wind to a bufeting turbulance which is worse. I never used to wear earplugs till a few years ago and have to say I never go anywhere without them now as they make you riding far more relaxed without the stress of wind noise. As for wind blast alter your stance dig in hold on and grow your neck muscles

Ive always wore glasses for the 30 years ive been riding, back in the day when you could only get your specks from very expensive opticians it was always a case of getting the specks for me first and the fit in the helmet came 2nd, gradually I learned that I need thin frames with taller lenses which made it tricky to get ones that I like to be seen in the rest of the time. But now I use an online glasses seller, you get your prescription from wherever and then order (free) 4 pairs at a time to try, my problem has always been that I have a thin head and the last glasses I had were sponge bob square pants as they were a perfect fit. Now the online seller gives all the dimensions of width height of lens and length of arm so after trying 12 pairs I now have the ones to be seen in and a perfect pair for the helmet, which are wire arms but strong enough to push on, rimless on the bottom and an oval lens that drops down low, and they are actually women's glasses !!. The problem I always had is that I push on the glasses and then they pop up on my face and don't sit right. So now I have the perfect pair and very very cheep.
Never had a problem with misting on the glasses untill I used the mouth mask that came with the hat which just directed me breath to the glasses

I hope to leave from the Hinckley meet and as far as I can tell they ride to Jacks hill and then in large groups get a police escort to Brackley. So I think a lot of other meeting points gather at Jacks Hill, so long as it is sort of on the way. I have been told that at my Local Hinckley meeting point that I can reg and pay on the day (air ambulance)

So -- do you have to pre reg or can you turn up (Hinckley for me ) and pay and reg on the morning

Sports/ street riders nod to others (mostly) but not to scooters
Harley types nod to NO one
Gold wing types do not nod --- They salute !!!
 
News just in - I got a nod last night from a harel rider in a german helmet with a scull scarf and shades,.........I bout fell off........

 I was tootling along and there was a bump-bump-bump which faded away. So got on the dual carriageway home.
When I looked I had picked up a 4inch nail through the side and out through the centre ish part - which then bent over (that was the fading bump) and the tire was still up when I got home
I now do not flinch when I have to spend £140 on a tyre that can cope with that and not blow up or somthing.

The reason that you scraped your feet is because you are cranked over as far as you can be befor you run out of tyres---thats what the blobs are for on the ends of your pegs, they tell you thats far enough over please.

Look on page 7 of show me your fazer -somone has them
