    Where/what to buy in US of A?

    I import stuff every now and then, books, tshirts, prints, electronics. Most of it was taxed, just the odd tshirt or book slipping through.

    Scooter down

    This is true, most scooter lights are kark. The China model I am on now's brights are not even matching my deceased Kymco's normal lights. But that is the difference between a R6k and a R20k scooter. I think dealers can also do more to try and persuade customers to upgrade the lights.

    Which short cuff glove?

    I am looking for a short cuff glove for tar commuting. Currently have a nice pair of perfecto racing gloves, but they look a bit silly when riding with short sleeve shirt when going for a quick trip to Spar or to work. Don't want to spend more than say R900. In winter I will use the racing...
