mate the cops down here don't really give a rats arse about tail tidies like they do up your way.......nobody gets booked for not having a red reflector (but you do need one of these for a rego inspection) - the coppers here worry more about speeding and riding like a dickhead. I know from some mates who live up in Qld and other members from Qld who are long-term members here - that you guys get smashed with all the tail-tidy bullshit far worse than anywhere else in the country really.

Are they still using those dodgy home-made 45-deg timber things that supposedly tell them if the rear guard is within 45 deg of the rear axle ????? what a crock of shit that is !!

oh yeah, Lurch sold this Zed a few months ago to one of the chicks in CanberraRIDERS, it lives down in Adelaide now. It was a really nice little 750.

Yeah they have that dogy timber thing, I desputed it and said was it made by a regestured manufacturer, he called me a smart ass and booked me any way,

Any ideas why he sold it? Was starting to look very tidy. For a phone number maybe
And anyone able to ID what mirrors were in his last photo. Looking for ideas for my build.

needed the money for a house deposit. The bike itself was in perfect condition. I always told him it was the best bike in his shed !! he has a few but goes through a lot as well......NFI on the mirrors mate, just send him a pm, he gets on here regularly enough....
