If I had posed that question to my "ex" she would have remarked "set fire to it" but that is dangerous Mrs Rochester.

| This expensive piece of ABS moulded plastic sits above the rear wheel and stops the spray fron the rotating wheel spraying a cowards streak up ones back side. |

| This retracting handle is positioned perfectly so as to enable the machine to be pulled up onto its main stand - it works surprisingly well and folds neatly away when not in use. The BMW K75 had one of these as standard as well as a self retracting side stand. |

| This is the Side Hid Terra Illuminator Device that lights up the side stand at night to allow for fuss free deployment. Designed and developed by NW Industries Inc, the SHITID is patent pending in many countries including Bulgaria, Libya and the Yemen. As you can see the side stand is perfectly illuminated and so all that awkard and sweaty left foot fumbling around during night time arrivals is avoided. Please email me for a quote. |
Good stuff. The first two I like, the jury is still out on the third, but you get high marks for creativity. :-)
ReplyDeleteNeed a better pic of the mud sling. Mounts horribly on the R12R. Haven't looked for one for the GS.
ReplyDeleteAs for the retractable SHITID light...you might get better marketing if also advertising for rear wheel illumination for night riding.
The best way to improve a perfect motorcycle is in mho... riding it.
ReplyDeleteLuxury! If I had any spare lighting, it would be directed forwards to supplement the Sprint's crap headlight, not down at the ground. The last car I had with puddle lights (which is what this is, effectively) was my last Range Rover. Nuff said.
ReplyDeleteTrobairitz: Not convinced? It's got an energy saving bulb!
ReplyDeleteLori/Miss Puddles:check this out - fits very well

Soja: Yes, you are so correct!
Richard: It's little things like that and genuine plastic veneer inlays that make a great car!
Sonja: Unlike my spelling -sorry!
ReplyDeleteIf you click on www.highgrovegardens.com/ I think you may be able to buy some high quality - organic, of course - mud. Then, using a good brush (I recommend the 4" Purdy Nylonia Elite) it can be applied to strategically selected parts to improve the styling.
