    Cool! I've seen lots of good things said about Big Bikes - that's where I got my bike from and was stoked with their service and more importantly the price. I did read somewhere that they're closing down though...

    Today I extended the dual sport mirror on my 525 and now I can almost see behind me.

    Oh and fitted a E-09 to the rear motard wheel for those road rides.

    Yeah that's the 140/80x17 on the 17" motard rim for road based duties. This wheel has the cush drive fitted so makes the ride alot smoother and easier on the trans when on the road. Am keeping the full on knobby on the 18" rim to chase the kids around the paddocks.
