    After figuring that one out . I think the answer is umm no , The first thing I look for is a damaged alt case . which can have expensive consequenses .

    I think I will stick to skate board wheels !! they do a good job , better than a 2 k fairing

    saw a side car rig at the hacksaw that had skateboard wheels for the swinger to hook his feet on etc as he hung off like a monkey

    a mate also used skateboard wheels to do a body lift on his hilux

    remarkable thing the humble skateboard wheel

    Gutted Gareth...that's the second time you've been down on that bike, aye?

    Lower speeds in the wet suck ass...at around or below 30km/h, I don't think the bike has enough stability to slide without assistance from the inside leg. I usually either try to keep my speed up, which I reckon is safer than trying to nana it.

    I reckon falling under the bike is best! You wear leathers for a reason.

    Sorry to hear that, gareth.
    At least it doesn't sound like the damage was too bad.
