Found some nice Rizoma bits on Twinshack.co.uk, five very nicely made little bits of practical bling will be making there way over to me in the near future.

Something to replace the urine sample pots that manufacturers keep giving us.

Ordered them in black for subtle blingyness. The wee one is for the rear and I'm having a pair of the larger ones for the front, looks wierd having one huge and one tiny for brake and clutch.

Pot brackets for the Hypermotard, see no reason why they shouldn't fit a Falco as well.

I like my home made ones, but they're staring to dribble fluid over the fairing so I've given in and bought these pre-made ones. Need some tubing though, I'll have a scratch around the garage but may have to go on the scrounge round the local bike shops.

Done a bit of painting today and spruced up some of the carbon bits I aquired over winter, the new bodywork needs a couple of brackets but is essentially fitted and looks good.

Finally got round to putting the new coolant in, fast idle on, hit the starter, fired up first time without even a stutter! I let it idle until the fans came on and none of my new oil and water pipes and tanks leak so far. Should be ready to rumble for the end of the month.
