It's just that i have put some Buell headlights an shield on my Hornet and i havent had time to aim them up yet. All ive done is set them on the low side as not to p!ss anyone off.

I wuuld like to get them just right before doing to much night riding. Just a rough estimate, im not going to hold anyone to it.

Late afternoon maybe...we are going to stop at Mangawhai (last stop of the day) but if you want to head on back at anytime feel free. Lunch stop at Haruru pub then back down through Paihia/Whangarei (gas stop)...then peel off at Waipu, and thats where you can keep going on SH1 if you want, back to Aucks.

Oh you would be so proud of me right now. Ive got at least 8,000ks out of the centre of my rear tyre, almost dont need the sidestand now, so Im not quite there yet. Thats why I thought I would only join in for the Whangarei/Waipu leg, no corners

Doesnt help its to dark in the garage and the tourches are flat...theres not one battery in the house and I prob had 2 many Jim Beans

What brace are you talking about Tania?...Is it for your panniers/top box? i had trouble with mine a while back, ended up taking it off all together and now have a pack rack/tank bag
