I think it's generally seen to be along the same lines as that well known shortening of Pakistani...

In Andy's defence while we are overrun with people of pakistani descent around here there are very few Chinese etc.

Meh... my turns of phrase offend people all the time, I probably sound arrogant and racist in my speech. In person I treat people equally with the same respect anyone gets (f*** all until they earn it), if anyone doesn't like it they can go and get f***ed!

Meh, dont worry about it. Now you know, that's what counts. I probably over-reacted. Sore topic for me and take things like this a bit to heart. For what it's worth I believe you didnt intentionally type it to cause offense.

YC, never picked up on any racism from you. Sure you can be erm...direct but its mostly generalised - i.e any person of any background can be a c*nt right? Plus I've met you, know your demeanor etc.

I dunno. Drama over, let's move on...

What's wrong with the stock levers? They fit pretty well and surly can lock the front without much effort. Personally I think that messing with crucial safety components is a bad idea.

As for the clutch switch, I don't think the starter button works if the bike is not in neutral.
