    Welcome to the world of the mighty Biffbird Zapf. A world where performance doesn't mean you have to ride with your arse above your head, and where chicks think you're more of a man than a mere sprots bike rider, because yours is bigger.

    Listen to the man Blackbird (Geoff) re' getting yourself a spacer fitted for the rear shock. The improvement in the bike's handling is remarkable, especially when you hit the twisties.

    About to purchase some for a south island crossing in March. There are some that have a brace that fits on the handlebars and then loop straight off. Much better than trying conventional ones - not enough clearance on the fairing. Blackbird has sorted his without these and has pics - he is offline for the next week but PM him to see how he did it. Oxford make some of these handlebar "bra" type tiedowns - they are the go for the bird.

    Very nice.
    I call it like I see it. Don't take it personally.
