Hi Fellow Shiver lovers,

Well in true Perfect Style I have yet again dipped my bread!!

Just got off the phone with the Twin Shack and ordered a pair of Rizoma retro bar end mirrors. £154! Ok a little bit pricey but after many hours of web scouring I felt these were the ones for me, apparently the mirrors have blue glass too, plus they are Italian after all,

I know some of you are probably thinking Dan you're mad CRG and Oberon are loads cheaper but that's just it, they look cheaper too, not going to knock CRG though as I had them on my supermoto and they were great.

When it comes to my Shiver I want only the best, the Rizoma are in my opinion. I'm told I should get them next week which is great news, of course I will post up lots of pictures and my opinion are their functionality.

I'm off to shop at AF1 now as I want their titanium rear brake and gear lever mounts.

I've already taken my standard mirrors off.

By the way if any off you want to know the town I live in (Redditch) it was on Sky news this morning and will continue to be all day. the Sky news chopper woke me up and it was hovering above my back garden for almost an hour!

I've just had a phone call from work as it's my day off, my new company car has arrived too :happy: I might post some pics of that later.

Hope you are all well anyway and those of you that are having a few problems are getting them sorted.

That type of bling bling usually goes on in the Monster crowd.

Do you get the whole grip for that price?
They look real nice.

P.S. don't bother with the car pics for me.
Couldn't be less interested. This is a bike forum.
Cages are just for when I've got to carry more than I can on the bike.

It's too late now anyway, it's the seventh Focus ST I've had too so it's kind of
boring me now, I might take on with the bike, sort of my toys kind of photo.

It's just the mirrors Makka!

Well I received my Titanium Brake and gear lever pivots today from AF1, talk about 1st class service! You know what's funny though the parts I ordered from them are made by the company who supplied all my titanium nuts and bolts!

There head office is 15 minutes from where I work, basically I purchased items from Texas that are made and supplied by the company I have visited 20 times in the last 6 months!

I was so gobbed smacked I called Pro bolt up and told them, they Said AF1 are a good customer and place a huge order once a year. They made me feel better though as the items I bought off AF1 are now a deleted line so if you want some I would get your order in to AF1 fast, Pro Bolt also said they would anodize them gold for me.

I also asked AF1 if they could send me a few decals which they very generously did too.

What a great company, I struggle to get that sort of service from people who
are in my country let alone far away in the good old USA.

Top job AF1, rest assured my future custom, I'm very proud to be your customer and to be part of this forum.

Perfect:)

Ps, Makka me and two of my colleagues went out and bought ourselves iPhones today! I hope this will help your Exhaust fund.

Thank you Mr Moneybags :)

Actually they are up to $172 a share right now from a low of 119 a couple of months ago.
It might be next month as I will sell at 200.
Then the very next instant I will be buying my exhaust. Though not sure if they will be Akras or Leo's. Probably Leo's as you guys like them so much.

I doubt it will be long before your shares reach 200, the way people are buying iPhones here at the moment I'd say you will soon be in a position to sell. :happy:

I'm interested to see the Akra's I reckon they will look pretty good, I wonder how they will compare cost wise to the Leo's?

Oh well I guess I will know soon enough if I made the right choice to spend my money rather than wait.

Night Makka :tired:
