Aye 'tis well riden Gio - it had just had a dose of Pledge when I took the pic!
As for the wavey's, they were a cheaper replacement than OE when they warped - some folks love 'em, some hate 'em, but don't worry....none taken :smt089

Pledge :smt103

I have been told not to use it on my bike, does something odd to the paint :smt017

I agree about the OEM replacements they normally are more expensive, I had EBC's on my Blackbird, they were all rusty in the rain but were a lot better than the Honda units

Ahhh.... clicky linky thingy. Nice - and good to see that even the YFFF can't resist a touch of the dark side!

They're Renegade's, FM. I bought them s/h for £200 just after I got the bike. They're listed at £560 on the Rene site which includes a new EPROM. They sound awesome too! :smt007
Did you spot my Q re: your indicators on another thread?

Kwack; Thanks - and no I didn't. In fact, I exchanged a couple of fairly heated e-mails with Jorge on that subject as he wouldn't supply a chip only. In the end, I got the Factory Pro chip and, after a little tweaking, it works really well (judging by the butt dyno anyway).
