Can you really not even get your toes down on a gsxr?! I have tiny legs (short length jeans are sometimes too long!) but on the new ones I had both of my feet securely down on the balls on my toes. Only putting one leg down and keeping the other on the peg was eaasy.

How to keep your bike clean.....don't ride through Bradford of a night

I do like the clingfilm idea , if I was good enough to give mine a clean It's not like it needs to look clean, I just stand it next to YC's and it looks spotless
