Any ideas?
Top Piccie of summat i found under my rideing seat earlier today, first time its been off. any ideas what that bit of tat is, its about 2 n half inches long.
The other 2 piccies are the reverse side of one of me heel plates - testing how well they would polish up? any ideas on what i could use to "seal" the finish - it wont last long in our weather, i've heard of clear coat, does that keep the mirror finish or does it dull? Cheers mucka's Dizz |

the plastic thing is a mounting bracket for a scotoiler.

and definitely polish the heel plates if you think they look shabby. you should be able to find a hard laquer to go over it.

Yep, definitely off a Scottoiler... mystery!?
Depends on how much you ride as to whether you polish the plates... if it's just casual then I'd say yes, if it's a few 1000 miles of commuting a month I'd say no... |
