    You've got the Klan gear, right?

    I know you plug it into your Optimate jack Nuts. What plug fitting is it? I emailed Klan but they never responded.

    You got it mate .. all Klan stuff . Very impressed with it . The plugs are those black waterproof jobbies with the yellow seal .
    I got some spares from Demon Tweeks and swapped the optimate plug over for easy fitment .

    thought today would be a good day to put my new gerbings hybred gloves to the test, as it was freezingcold and dry roads,using gloves battery power
    for the first 1hour and a half i set the battery on its lowest setting, and have to say they worked realy well, with my hands at no time feeling cold
    with a lot of the time spent at higher speed on A12, they only got cold when i stopped to refuel and took them off!
    treid the last half hour on the med setting to see if the battery had enough power to cope and have to report they did with the gloves a tad warmer
    all in all i wish id brought them sooner

    Cheers Everton. Did you get chance to check which tyres yours came fitted with? Really interested to know whether the Qualifier 2s are up to the task... :)

    Qualifier 2's simply No in my opinion I hated them but each to there own

    Back was gone by 800 miles front felt unstable and just gave way once without warning

    Like I say may just be me and they arnt awful but the Metzlers I changed to are a million times better for me :)

    With Jamie, they really aren't great, but do you for running the bike in no probs! But my rear lasted 1500 miles Inc 850 running in... And the front had no feel at all!

    IMHO if you think they are ok, you will be blown away with some sticky hoops! Oe tyres always feel so vague, but could be me also.
