Wouldn't mind going, but the spurs, and Healesville have been a breeding ground for cops lately. Don't fancy getting a defect notice.

Yes so I have been told by a friend who rides there frequently, I am sure we can find a cop (revenue raising) free zone.

I'm keen for a ride but can only make it Mon or Tues. Best time to ride in the hills....no cops.

Nazz, the best place for accessories is the internet !!

I saved at least 30% for all the extra bits and bobs by buying from OS.

As an example, my Puig screen cost me $102 to my door (from the UK), as opposed to $180 before shipping from the Melbourne disctributor...
