They will be spot on for my HP needs. Edited 15/07/15 02:10 PM by Boganspeed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you can see, he's mad for skulls.Not my cuppa tea, but its not my bike.Anyway, here we were test fitting a new 80 spoke front wheel I ordered from the States for him.We also started fitting a suicide clutch and jockey shifter I also ordered in.Unfortunately they shipped one for the wrong model so I'm trying to get that sorted as the bike is in bits.Will post pics when done.

I roll my eyes when I see dudes wearing face masks when they're just riding around town and not even fast enough for a bug to hurt.And those skull ones are a bit rediculous.I love the skulls in the paint on this bike, but the rest is a bit much for my taste. Especially the headlight. But this guy has had everthing from hardtail Honda choppers to a new 675 Triumph so who am I to judge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my bike learners, but never continued it. Both of my parents ride, and my sisters bf too. So we have a few bikes at home! Recently went out on a ride with them and a bunch of their biker mates. Me making chase in the Typhoon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
