Re: Serious crash protection

Re: Serious crash protection
Overkill springs to mind but... if it's a learner school bike, then why not.
I thought my crash protectors were 'in yer face' tbh but they're not a patch on that bike. |

Re: Serious crash protection
I think I can see the valve clearances from here.
Looks more like a stunt school, how often do learners drop their bikes when they're at 600cc level? I had to do a CBT beforegoing on a bigger bike so had already been weaned off the stabilisers.
