Hi troops, paperwork completed,service done,givi plate and rack fitted and arrives on saturday :smiley:I have bought a new oxford rainex cover and still have the custom made cover for the deauville which i will also use to cover the rainex cover as the bike will be "garaged"in the yard.This being the case, any thoughts on getting the bike acf50ed.Seen a company, allyearbiker,that seems really professional and good value,anybody used them?

I've used all year biker on both my GTR and my girlfriends SV, our bikes get used all year in all weathers and the acf50 protection works really well, just power wash the bike down and they look like new again.

I will take some pics tomorrow for you..

I have lots of music on my phone that I normally listen to but fed up of the same songs all the time... Nice to have a radio for the traffic reports to. Bit more variety. :banana:

The more i see of your bike Debs the more I,m impressed.Have just been out on mine for the first time since i got it.Mirrors are a bit of a dissapointment, fine if you want to keep an eye on your panniers!, where did you get those wider angle ones?have you covered the backs of them ?
