Working on it! I cleaned it especially so I could get it dirty when I get back home.

The other day my dad asked me if cars are more aware of bikes nowdays or if they still dont notice them. Now being new to riding, and only ever having ridden adventure bikes, I cant comment on drivers more than 5 years ago, but my logic and answer to him was this: Being on an adventure bike...

Thanks for the pic, ill just have to wait in see whats in the box then.

I bought the damper plus a mounting kit?? I can only assume its the kit you talking about.  Ill check it out when I open the box.

Havent posted much, but I keep up to date. Thought its time I posted my 2c worth 1st is on the Tradouw Pass, second is the obligatory Ronnies pic. Its a 2003 1150 that I picked up 6 months ago with 12k km on the clock.  

iPod with noise cancelling earphones. Acts like earplugs so you dont have to turn the volume up loud, and you can still pretty much hear whats going on around you.
