    Suitable bike lights available from the WH, but I got a handful from Alibaba. Which I'll be selling at ridicuoulsly inflated prices at the next wet event & possiblty not at all to Rich with his fancy wet weather tyres, - but hes a tredlie from way back so I expect he'll be sorted.

    As we are starting to understand these rules will apply to everyone at certain events & every event at a later stage (like 2014).

    I've drilled the calliper bolts on the 50 that weren't done.


    Just need to sort some sharkfins.
    Don't you look at my accountant.

    I'm loving the idea of people drilling holes in their swingarm to fit these "sharkfins". Deano was all set to do it, I pointed out that clamping them is a better bet, dunno what way he went though.

    If buckets are running a National points series, they will have to comply with all the rules, and any street meetings.

    And to run at Mt Welly. The organising committee has made that call.

    Personally I dint have to much of an issue drilling into my FXR swingarm. Have you seen how fucking solid those things are! If it was a lighter alli swingarm or something similar I would prob be having second thoughts.

    For the record Qkkid was in my bed, not the other way round

    You're lucky on the chair too. Can put a flashy red light hidden away so it can only be seen when it's on. Looks flash as like an F1 car!

    Wiring up LEDs in specific patterns to a battery box.

    I will be making a fancy little circuit for LEDs on my tail piece to make a cool looking pattern (or possibly using red CCFL tubing - looks like lightsabers).
    If anyone wants a cool little custom lighting circuit put on their tailpiece, let me know

    -Battery operated (sealed box with switch)
    -100% custom
    -LED or CCFL


    I can do something a little more custom than just that if you want something crazy too.

    If you are going down this road I'd stick with the LEDs, the CCFL approach may be a little less crash proof.

    Yeah, you aren't wrong there.
    Definitely suggest LEDs. lightweight, safer, easier for me to wire up
