    well, at the risk of going too far, i hate 'out of the shower fresh'

    that doesn't mean i like Napoleonic standards of hygiene, I just don't like the taste of Lynx Africa

    Some one told me it was to soak up any fluid if it came loose:D

    The downside is that you get no early warning if you get a brake fluid leak.

    Fitted bridgestone s22s to my 2007 and went from a 50 to a 55 on the rear. Really like the sharper turn in and the tyres feel great. Looking forward to trying them out at Thruxton on Wednesday.

    That has merit because when you notice a soggy sock (not to be mistaken for other soggy socks:)) you can just squeeze it back in to the master reservoir!

    this is another thing that makes me paranoid, my BMW has tell tales for every fluid, oil level, brake fluid, washer fluid, coolant, power steering, air in the air ride, etc etc etc

    this bike would run out and kill me without thinking about telling anyone!

    A bargain at what you’re charging for them! And to believe people thought you could knock them out for a tenner!

    Some wing'age just landed on my desk....... Just a bit of fun, I don't think I really need downforce inducing wings to stop me from wheelying but they might look pretty cool on the bike!;)

    They don't do it for me, though I'm interested to see what they look like.

    Will you have to glue them on? ...or drill the fairing? :eek:

    A couple of exciting boxes of bits arrived on my desk too!
    My colleagues really don’t get it, I get very blank looks when banging on about various bits of motorcycle...

    Are they the Puig ones we've seen advertised?

    They'll need a good dose of Mr Sheen; not looking too air slippery at the moment;).
