The bracket holding the tail light is temporary, more planning was needed there... The indicators will also be getting replaced. I'll have to go over the connections for the indicators again as there's a dodgy one in there somewhere that's somehow reversed the action of the clutch switch... it won't fire if I pull the clutch lever and will happily start with the lever out... Much weirdness, all thoughts appreciated. The Fluorescent Scrotums days are numbered!

Night Nurse seems more extreme. I'm having thoughts about the rear too with a similar light, looks cool. Cheers Chris All the best Chris Do it today - tommorrow it may be illegal.
