Congrats!  Sweet bike.

Definitely looks likes a fun little thumper.  And clean enough to eat off of, too.

Don't know if you care or not, but your pipe was wrapped backwards.  It could possibly try to unravel itself with the overlaps facing forward.  It's not really any kind of big deal, but a pet-peeve of mine…

[Giles]

TJ.  Thanks and I had not notice (well, actually I did not know there was a right and a wrong way) that.  I'll fix when I pick it up…..

[TJ]

People always want to start wrapping up by the manifold end for some reason.  Some tips if you've never done it before: soak the wrap in water for a little while, start at the tail end of the pipe (or as close to the tail end as you want the wrap to go), and wear gloves.

Thanks TJ

[hajduk]

well done G!

Black FQHH trousers sorted.  Black Steerhide long half belt sorted (until I get Will to build me something amazing).  Davida black and orange jet helment, aviator goggles and gloves on the need list…..

and some engineers…?

[Giles]

I have some Wesco, I need to get the instep stretched, but I think they should work…..

ride easy G.

Hmmm, I see this as an excuse entirely valid reason to buy more boots.

You read my mind.

You have to remember who we're dealing with here…  G doesn't need an excuse to buy more boots - that is a given!  Oh yeah, the 500 is badass!

G, what kind of aviator goggless?

If you are getting Aviator Retros, their lenses suck bick time. You better order some good lenses for them from Good Ole US of A.  (ANSI graded)

Only proper lenses Davida is offering is the Blue mirror, which is polycarbonate, other lenses are acetate. (or so it was at least while ago)

[Giles]

Thanks IJ.  You got any recommendations?

[injunjack]

I got mine here for my Retros (I have prescription retros)

I have Iridium lenses for those sunny days and yellow for rainy days and nights.

Iridium lenses will give you that nice blowfly looks
