Hi folks,
many of our members bought these plates when they were available. sadly they have become harder and harder to source. Usually it is from someone wrecking a bike or someone like me moving onto another bike and the dealer doesn''t want them to stay on the bike .

Hi all,
Last night on my way home I hit 50,000 km. Now for some that still makes me a spring chicken and others will say I finally got the motor run in. And I'm ok with all that.
Still, its nice to see those little figures climb and then tumble over.
And before some bright spark says I must...
