Disagree with this, all I get is 50% usage from my mirrors as the other 50% 
is a nice view of my elbows. During recent rider training the instructor 
asked if I was going out of my way to move my head from side to side to see 
in the mirrors just to prove I was using them. I said no its the only way I 
can see what's behind. If you've made changes to them to class them as a 
strength, please let me know the secret.

As per some of the other people on the list I have recently fitted the Zero 
Gravity double bouble screen. The air flow hitting me is now smoother, so 
less tiring, so I class this as a good purchase.

>* Engine heat vented away from the rider.

This week we have had good weather in the UK and I now understand this 
statement. Warm air was what I was expecting from other posts I have read, 
but this heat is bloody hot. Maybe some heat resistant foil down my 
leathers to keep my shins from becoming medium to well done by the end of 
the ride ;-).

Why indeed !!
