:clap:  You HAVE been busy, and your bike is looking great....what exhaust can have you got fitted....the helibars certainly make a difference let us know what you think about them, out of interest did you choose them to solve a back problem or another reason ?

And what do you think of your sun shield on your Zumo 660  ?

I assume that you had to lengthen the Galfer brake lines, but what about the other cables etc. ?

Chose the helibars mainly for wrist ache.Wrong angle for me .Tried the risers but no go.I very nearly sold it but i think these will do the job.I have no limit to where i put them.Expensive but i like the bike to much to sell. The galfer hoses fit ok and i think i ordered them for a standard handlebar mounting.They will supply longer if needed.The helibars come with 6 inch line extensions to add to clutch and brake.Throttle cables are just moved to the outside of the fork leg.Zummo cover not very good but helps a little.I have to use my hand often to shade it.Off up to newcastle at the weekend so ile report back weather ime selling or not. Cheers

thanks Wildy, nice job, well done, lets hope that you enjoy the ride to Newcastle and decide to keep the bike   :yes: 

I had a similar shade on the 660 I owned and like you I found it poor. Inow have a glare stomper  on my Garmin 590 LM, it works much better and replaces the original one I fitted to an original Tom Tom rider about 7 years ago

That me auld son is as we say in the toon area A GEET CANNY JURB MAN .. THINS A CUSHY LUKIN  BIKE  :smiley:
Little heads up if ya up this way wild ...the trunk road from Newcastle to Tynemouth has 30mph
Average speed cameras on it ... and yup they do pick up bikes.   It's worth if heading to the coast area to use an alternative route .. the road works around north Shields and whiteley bay are HIDEOUS .
