hand job

[ChinaV]

I don't think you can use Alipay without having access to a bank in China. Paypal and credit cards do not work. You also can't conduct a transaction through a translation page, it usually makes the security scripts fail. Bar end mirrors like the ones I just posted in my Yingang thread might work with a bit of grinding and some really long bolts.

Thank you. I had before seen a couple of Chinese vendors (in searches but not necessarily on Ebay) that had Paypal references. One was on Taobao so I was thinking of asking them to draw up an invoice for paypal payment. Easier to get some nice friendly chap like you or Jeff to do it, was just trying to see if I could work it. Will PM you when I have a few things to get!

The choice of handguards OR bar mirrors would be obvious for usage and situation except on a dual sport, r/t bike when you need both. I have the mirrors just like yours and like them but I also want handguards. I just wondered if anyone had designed an insert. Might have to bodge it myself.

jape,
I've seen some hand guards with foldout mirrors that might be the ticket for a off road rider like you.

Bump!

Dear Milton, are you still in possession of the hand guards you ordered for me? I'd love to complete the transaction and get them on the bike! With interest I probably owe you a few bucks, or beers.

thanks/cheers!

Saw these on taobao and though it was relevant:

Pros: they fit on the JH600, great weather protection
Cons: don't protect your levers in a crash, ugly as hell

Yes, Jeff, I am still in possession of "your" hand guards and waiting for my beers. Just took them out from my tail box the other day when I needed space there. I also left you a post about my battery tender junior that I bought in the States which is in need of a voltage converter in order to be of any use in China. Let me know if you want to offer me more beers in exchange for borrowing my battery tender.

CHeers.

From the sounds if things, you may be needing to borrow MY charger, in which case we'd have to recalculate the flow of beer. If all goes well, I'll have my deluxe charger by tomorrow.



perhaps we can organize a New Year's (no-)Bike Night in a local watering hole this weekend. You bring your charger, I'll bring mine!

cheers!

YOUR charger indeed looks deluxe, but then one can never fault a made-in-China stuff for its lack of look. However, how it will deliver what is labeled on the package is another matter all together. On the other hand, MY charger is a name brand hand-carried from the States with proven performance demonstrated by loads of people in the States. As it stands now, which direction the free beer would flow is not certain at all.

Well, jokes aside, we really should organize a (no-)Bike Night for our Shanghai MCM cohort. The weekend after this one may be better when most people would have been back from their CNY holidays.

Cheers.
