Have I seen one of these on your AT on Facebook Ridaz? What else has Marc been creating?

I am sure if Mark's Doctor allows him the time out, he will post some details here  :smirk:

He's done a headlight guard.

That is indeed my bike with the brake reservoir.. The headlight guard is also supported by a soon to be finalised adjustable screen mount with Sat Nav bar

Marks doctor has been kind and upped his medication sufficient to allow him to push on with the project.

Full details are on his Facebook site https://www.facebook.com/cymarcbikeparts/ but I promise to up some pics over the weekend

Really happy with what I have seen so far  :lala:

Hi peeps, here I am  :grin: :welcome:

Following a rather long winter where I only had my BMW final drive to keep me warm I have been very lucky to get a donor AT   :ty:

And yeah, I`ve done some `stuff` - some of which is on FaceTube  :groan: :groan: :groan:including updates

I`ll post a better update later and hopefully before I get p*ssed coz it`s Friday  :fix:

Ride safe you V Strom fiends

Facetwit and the like is only for middle aged women and teenagers, therefore ask your therapist for a bit of time out of the restraints so you can post the content here  :eusa-doh:

Here`s my take on the brake reservoir blokes plus a couple of other images of the headlight guard and screen extensions (c/w mobile device mount).
