However, if they make you go faster Im in.
If you strap on stuff made of softer rubber Hoffy, it does less damage. You'll just have to lash out and spend a bit more on the quality stuff next visit to the XXX store mate!!!!
I'll pay that.
Does this mean I cant do the twisties with a donger hanging each side of the tank anymore

GROUP BUY
i like the look of them but i would want to see it in the flesh first.
i have used an rjays tail bag and i found the clips on the straps were not strong enough and the bag still left some marks on the tail (probably only i can tell). Plus it moved around a bit and annoyed the shit out of me (which is more than likely what caused the marks on the tail)
the images of this thing looks like the straps are pretty tough. It would be interesting to see what people think of them re marking the tail and how stable they are etc
wonder what they cost?

a couple of years ago tim and i stumbled across a zx12r being ridden as the manufacturer intended
we played and then had a good chat in the carpark, turns out he was one of the original importers.........
seemed like a good idea that just didnt take off

it didnt take off cos the guys in jail for not paying his speeding fines whilst riding the 12 as the manufacturer intended.

yeah......from what I can gather the manufacturer intended the 12 to be fast....me thinks....may have something to do with the 170 odd HP on tap
