Hopefully cage drivers will see me a bit better as they're in eyeline view, hopefully They're really bright considering the size is less than a 5p piece ![]() Got them at the show yesterday, 4 for £10 so my mate bought two but he said I can fit his for him, he's very kind that way. :lol

Not trying to be critical but I have mistaken spots on bikes to be car headlight further away before. It's only the fact that I ride a bike and I took a second look prevented me from doing so.

Changed gearing on the gen 1 thou back to stock (16/44) as the lowered gearing when I picked it up, didn't suit me. Also changed from bar end mirrors (now in For Sale) to stock mirrors with Oberon heavy bar end weights as with the bar end mirrors I could fit in an Autocom PTT switch.
Lovely now it is - was nice when I picked it up, just some personal taste changes ![]() Next fitting Fuzeblock / autocom / 12v powered walkie talkie etc cheers Markie (15-03-16, 04:59 PM)markie_wales link Wrote: Next fitting Fuzeblock / autocom / 12v powered walkie talkie etc Fitted both a FuzeBlock and Autocom to mine years ago, FuzeBlock makes adding accessories so much easier and electrical power controlled by ignition switch. Don't know why more people don't fit them? Fitted a Fuzeblock to mine years ago for all the accessories, heated grips, autocom, sat nav, uprated horn,etc, makes adding accessories so much easier and doesn't clog up battery area.

Put the battery back on and took it for a short blast up the road and back. The Striple is great fun, but every time I get on that :faz , I know it's no.1

They did say to email any requirements though. And a few pics of install under the mirrors. I joined the two wires together after bring them down the mirror shroud and then connected them into my led sidelight. All wires soldered and heatshrinked as my normal anal self allows nothing less :loīl I'm looking into getting a couple of brackets made to allow me to put them on a wee bit more neater than tie-wraps but it'll do for now. And yes that's a 5p on the 3rd pic!

:rollin :rollin :rollin Frosties I know what you mean Tiger lmfao.
Its a stand that I made to hold a white board, works well as a stand but don't help when you have a turn out. :eek I took the bike up to show my mate Terry when I fitted the lights he reckoned they were the brightest thing that had ever been on the bike, cheeky bastard. I told him people thought that his 900 Thruxton Bonny was female cos when he was riding through town the other day someone made the comment 'Look at the Twat on that Triumph. It's 8-14am here (Weds 16th) the sun is shining, so I just need to put the charged up battery back on my hairdressers car (MR2 Mk3) then I'm taking the Fazer out for a gentle cruse around. I went down to Loomies Cafe at the West Meon Hut in Hampshire on Sunday afternoon and could not get in the car parking area because it was jammed packed with bikes, they were also parked along the road in the lay-by as well, my guess would be 350 bikes, don't have any pics because some dozy old fart had the camera on his phone set to video mode I got about 2 seconds of the bikes then some lovely footage of the darkness taken from inside my pocket, about 45 minutes of it in all, before the phone ran out of power and switched off. :fish :'( cupid stunt |
