These lycra roadhogs are the cyclists that should have to have rego & numberplates. And they never check behind them to see if traffic has banked up.

I've just done a set of Tokico 4 pots on the ZZR. I cut the end off a new tyre valve and then screwed the upper part (with the valve) into the banjo hole. As the valve is rubber coated it seals lovely. You can then pop them out using a footpump or tiny 12v compressor. Worked a treat.
