    Guys, what sunglasses are you wearing when riding? I'm assuming most HD riders use open face helmets, especially during these brilliant warm summers months. I've been wearing Wiley X Viper with my prescription lenses fitted. I also use the strap which gives me added protection. Anyway, I went to Frasers the other day....bloody hell!!! Where's me glasses. I think I've dropped them when sitting on a couple of bikes outside, and someones picked them up. Sadly, they wont realise the glasses are useless (to them anyway). I need to buy a new pair. There's these new you beaut Bobbers on E Bay for about $100.00. Has anyone used  these?

    Hi robcig
    I bought a pair of "no more tears" they have like foam around so the wind dont blow ya eyeballs out,think they were about $40 they are pretty good i reckon anyway,they have like a little maltese cross on the side,Trouble is some glasses look good in the shop but when ya get on the bike the wind gets in your eyes and makes you cry like a baby .I have over the years used them safty glasses that you get from welding supplies $10 good value especially if you lose them.Thats my story on glasses,Did ya buy a bike at Frasers .
    cheers

    Did I buy a bike? No way would I buy from those guys. I had my Deluxe in for a rear tyre $473.80 thankyou very much!!! I was waiting around for ever for the bloody thing. Anyway, I find the best deals in terms of buying a bike, is buying from someone who has loved and cherished his machine from day one. Someone who has already spent the $2000 in the upgrade that, in my opinion should have been done at the factory. Love those Harleys. Not sure if I'd buy one brand new.

    Others would disagree with you. If you thinks she handles, goes, stops OK, well, she's OK. It is what you want it to be. Me, I love the charm and charisma of Italian bikes. I bought a Harley. They have the WOW factor that you dont get on anything else. Infact, it's an addiction, a love affair!!! (Dont tell my wife)
