Bike Update: Installed them sideviews
Installed the side-view mirrors. The round ones from Suzuki (Ittefaq Autos, on McLoad road). The two, Japan-imported sideviews cost 350/-. Ride comfort: priceless. 🙂 The disc brake (GTO's disc brake) with its own brake lever, didn't have any place to put the Right...
