Happy birthday Col!  Yer bike is looking a bit rough, by Mrs kiwicol is lookin the same as ever, ya lucky ole bugger.  Cheers mate.  :cheers:

BTW, whitewall tyres are dual compound, have to be as the 2 colours.   If you ever saw what went into making white rubber, there's no way you'd ever want it in your tyres.
