| Quit yelling at us. Some of those (okay most) UK guys are old and you might hurt their ears. Oh, and welcome to the forum. |

| hi burking, what hi yo means is your posting in high case (capitals), which is seen as yelling or shouting on the internet, not just this forum. Anyway Im from sunny manchester, if your 'up north', me and a few scootering friends have rideouts now and again, your more than welcome to joun us, or any other silverwing owner for that matter, anyway, welcome to this forum. |

| Miles Kingsport Honda on Witham Road in Hull should be able to get them for you, they're £105.19 excluding fitting costs. |

| Not sure if they're available other than from Honda as I had them fitted before taking delivery of the bike last week and was given a discount (effectively saving the VAT). According to my paperwork (incl. VAT), RRP is £113.60 but I got them for £97.67 + £36 fitting. Having them fitted before delivery meant I got the same 2-year warranty as the bike. It doesn't look as if they were difficult to fit, probably 30mins. or so, and they do a good job of keeping the cold wind from blowing up your trousers legs. With previous feet forward bikes/scooters I've had, I used to tuck my trousers in my socks or use large rubber bands - thus causing my street cred to take a nose dive...! |
