Like a big kid could barely wait to get home from work and start with the latest farkle..Adventure-spec bash plate. Went on pretty easy and shows how flimsy the the standard plastic cover (bash plate is to generous) is. Also fitted a couple of bike vis high intensity led driving lights wired into the side lamps, the pic doesn't do justice to how bright they are..only £16.00 for a pair as well. People notice me know especialy dawn/dusk periods when comuting to work, woth a look and can recomend them.
Chaos is the only camoflage that incompetence needs to operate at full capacity.

Sometimes it takes a whole tank of petrol on the bike before i can think straight again.

Hi the lights were from www.bikevis.com not a bad product and easy to mount, quite pleased for how little they cost.

pics look good I have looked at these lights before but was unsure of them, Bit of a silly question, Are they just running lights to be seen or do they add to light on the road? ye O know silly question

Cheers Paul

Sorry for the delayed reply Paul, no they're just day running lights for high vis. Worth looking at the vids on their webs site as it shows how bright they are so much better than the pics i snapped. They weren't expensive so thought i'd just try some, must say they make the bike stand out so much better, the standard xt h/lamps not that bright and i've had a few peeps start to pull out on me at r/abouts,junctions so wanted something that showed up more. The h/lamp on my bmw 1200gs is much brighter (so it should be on a bike that costs so much more) and never seem to have the same problem with people noticing it from a distance if you've got a small frontal area bike or its a bit weak on the lights these seem worth a look, i have seen others but these looked the easiest to fit and wire, i still might get some for the gs though.

I'v fitted Bike Vis Bullets to the TA.
One of mine stopped working the other day (only a few months old) so I emailed Bike Vis ( BikeVis | Unique lighting products for your Motorcycle ) on Wednesday. Within a little over an hour, Dan,the proprietor had mailed me back to confirm he'd sent a replacement set, and these have arrived this morning (Friday).
I'm really impressed with the service,and commend Bike Vis to you.
