What?! I love the gaiters! Gives the bike that classic no nonsense look and I have not had to renew one seal yet!

It’s well known that you have no taste though DR

I know gaiters are retro but they just look like a crude after thought to me.
I liked bikes that had covered front suspension like my Aerial Leader iirc my 250 Dream had painted covers not black rubber gaiters that shout at you.😁😁😁

Well known? Well known?! What arrogance is that? Who do you represent besides you yourself then? Just look at the taillight of the UK's model CB500 and compare it to what the rest of the world had. You want to discuss taste?
Oddjob:
DR, you have as much taste as you do a sense of humour. Lighten up, it's just a bit of fun.
As for the rear light, Germany got a god damned awful one IIRC. The yanks got a huge one, way out of proportion, the UK one was just about right IMO.

Bigger is better…size counts😁
