Yea she's quite a mixture, the Revere parts have done 40k, the NTV red trim including the fairing has done 125k, the NTV frame was 50k and the NTV wheels 65k, new bearings in the front wheel and headrace makes her ride and handle quite nice, goodridge and hel brake hoses plus ebc pads and a new front disc make her stop good.

those brackets are off a deauville, 99p from e-bay, big fat and rubberised for my lady.... i bent them a little and added a small bracket to get em to fit but they do the job nicely (so i'm told).. it turns a sack of potatoes into a responsive pilion

the other small brackets i made for some leather throwovers which i removed the middle connecting piece from em to allow for fitting either side, i like them cuz they arn't so wide and are handy on n off.

On a deauville those bracket are more sitting down and go from the sides into the middle so the pillion has their hands behind them, the way i have them situated is really comfortable and easy to grab onto if needed.. i only go by endorsments of a few pillions tho... last time i did pillion was on the m6 on the back of a BM.. i nearly fell asleep he was going so slow... never again unless she's a good rider... right guys?

JJ the fairing is a Powerbronze Daytona, i like cuz... it's lighter than some, at high speeds it's eccellent for stability, it's great at keeping most of the muck of me and keeps me a little warmer, it needs to come off this winter so i can put in some new headbearings and repaint the bracket, also some rewiring and a HID headlight.. i want daylight at night I still have a Naked NTV tho which i rode for short journeys (resting atm) same colour as yours.. glue or is it breen... Turquoise blue i call it...
