The polished junk on my bike is from many many hours of sweat and sandpaper - payed for a chromed rear brake torque arm off ebay once - thats it.
Steve new chain and sprockets are sweet.

"Lets see a Harley bagger ride in this terrain"
A hardley with extended forks would be real fun to watch attempting to cross that country :evil:
Your bike is a very dark blue Steve ?

Nice colour Steve - only reason mine is the original red is cause Kawasaki reckoned they couldnt get me a black one
- paint job one day - still looking great for 20 years.
Half helmet looks like its worn out mate

Yeah, it's been hanging on the bike for two years. I wore it for a month until I bought my V Max. If I come across a "Shela" that I like, I'll buy her a good one.

I've become very picky in my old age. No critters around here. I was talking a bout my G Max helmet. The one hanging off the bike gets bumped around quite a bit. So it's Shielas. Shows how much I know.
Keep the rubber on the road.
