[VladTepes]

Thanks all. When I get my new camera I'll start putting a video together

Vlad, all 4 of my 14s were virtually standard ( only got 2 now ) BUT & its a big 'but' for me, as being somewhat of a fat-git, all I could see in the mirrors were my elbows!!
I machined up a pair of longer stems (50mm ) & had them chromed, made a huge difference.
Also, having the aerodynamics of a house-brick, a large Plexistar-2 screen, allows for a very calm & relaxed ride at 100, er 70 mph.
Looks crap, but at my age, don't give a toss.
One of which I bought new in 2002 & still have, & its clocked up all of 12k miles, the other 65k & you can't tell them apart.

Out in the country I came across some folk that got quite excited over the GSX.

3 years is right came up on my Bakebook the other day, they do it every year. An ex bikey up the road put a radar cop out slowed a lot of the traffic down.

Someone here in NZ did that too, up north, & was a pic of a pommy policeman pointing a laser, people complained (and hit the brakes) but the cops just laughed & left it there.

Back in 80s they put a full sized cop car cardboard cut out on Gold Coast road. From memory it worked well.
