Hi Matt they are high power LED flood lights, I use them on the twisty side roads when the sun starts to go down.

Ah yes of course! Mine are the higher up mounted factory ones. I haven't ridden enough night time miles yet to feel the benefit though. Flipping virus! Or flipping unemployment!

I'm sure I saw somewhere someone had... not sure what you'd call them, foot plates or cruising foot pegs or something at the front of the engine bars so you can stretch your legs out on motorways et al. I've noticed I can do that just using the bars, but not quite secure! I may 3d print some king of foot peg or bobble to help.

A417 under two feet of water at Maisemore - Gloucestershire and the south of England cut off.

Wye getting jiggy at Hereford - Wales cut off?

Severn under water at Worcester - Madlands(sic) cut off.

And that was just the rain. Just wait for the snow melt to kick in  8)

We're still getting lucky up here, no snow.
