Rizoma do a great bar end mirror and as I have Rizoma bars and bar ends it would be ideal but I wanted to try one before I spent £135 on one.
I get knocked down but i get up again.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Rode down to JHP Ducati after lunch as it brightened up and i felt a bit better.
Had a try on of the Ducati jacket i posted up a few weeks ago and also had a demo ride on a Diavel for 30 minutes. Fook me, does that bike have some mid range shove.
Salesman told me that the rear seat hump is there to stop you falling off the back. I thought he was joking.......he wasn't.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Rode down to the B4364 towards Ludlow, a favourite piece of road. Didn't ride right to the end but stopped near Cleedownton for a drink turned round and rode it back again.
It really is great to ride on any bike.

My smoking headers made a few people stare when I pulled up at the lights
