Remember, they only show red light to the front when the lights are on.

thats an interesting read

to be honest during the day in the summer they dont even look lik tere on they are just a simalar colour to the paint job...

i was behind a police bike on the m65 on monday and he didnt pull me for it, so i guess i will have to see what happens next time i go to the devils bridge and the feds are out in force..

i am kinda concered why its chavish to have light protectors on your bike..

thats like saying i am a taliban if i wear a turban and grow a beard..

Clear, legal protectors are fine.

Red ones yell "Look at me" and as such are chavish.

FACT!

Loud cans at high revs scream something more along the lines of "Look out, I'm coming past, doesn't matter what you say, I am coming!"

Nice to see you use that argument and have a CCC fitted btw

And as such are also Chav items - and the ones stamped "Not for road use" are also in the same legal class as your "bling" light protectors.

I am not having a go at you by the way, the folks on here that I have talked over some of my ideas with will agree my bike will be mightily chavvy by the time I am finished
