If anyone is passing the Hill and wants a laugh, call into M&S parts dept (upstairs, old Harrry Wood Honda), they have a "bargain" box of used indicators on the counter for £5 each
I asked if they were really trying to sell the damaged, bodged, gaffa-taped lights they had removed from crashed bikes for £5 each - even the chap serving at the counter looked embarressed when I picked the top one (cut wires, cracked lens, gaffa-taped all round to hold lens in place)
You get a prize if you can find one with wires and connectors intact, no snapped mounting bolts, and an undamaged lens

For tyre info, M&S can do a pair of Pirelli Diablo Stradas for £150 + 16 fitting on loose wheels. Hunters can do £120 pair (+fitting?) but I need to go back when I have more time to see what types they can do (I got Diablo's last year cheap from Hunters for the ZZR and liked them a lot)

cheers
