    I think we all know that feeling ..Somehow just that little more effort and customer care brings home the finished article.
    Now starts all the bullshit ,it's in the post ,it's not in stock ,I will ring you back, the guys on leave ,snooze .Just get me the shit I have ordered " it's not to much to ask" is it?

    I'll pop mine in the Van mate plus stands!


    Tiz the two black cables that are the giveaway on the shock, they plug directly in to the stock Kwak ECU.

    Performance Bikes have one on their 'Long Termer' ZX and rave about it.

    But I plan on having it pristine come January.

    When he says replica, what he actually means is that he's riding as his team mate for the next two years lol.

    It had 6 miles on the clock when i picked it up yesterday and when i put it to bed it had 60 miles on the clock, the guy's at the Dyno centre said they would like a minimum of 100 miles on the clock. 40 to do:)

    Very much the same as those on the Blade mate but if I'm honest these feel a little cheap in comparison, I've never found any bike mirrors to be much good.....
