More recently, the bike has aged better than the rider

Can't let such a fine "Tache" slide by Dennis. Growing up i recall example of such on men who really did something notable. Among them, Peter Sarstetd singer, Yvon Duhamel mad Canadian Kawasaki triple pilote, Tony Pond rally driver par excellence. Never suited me when older, but seemed to denote men of achievement and individual style.  :)

Not forgetting a certain Mick Grant too, perhaps a pre requisite for riding a racing Kawasaki Triple of the era  ;D

The holders though, shocking in crap quality usually  :) shite paint that fell off in winter conditions, plate around the hole too big to logically fit into make bike architecture local to any convenient bolts realistic. Plastic enclosure type with no bolt spigot internal to the hole so it couldn't be tightened properly on a bolt securely that held something else important on your bike.

Sudo machined type with fake bolts and looking linke a porthole on an important pressure vessel,  misplaced engineering "styling" akin (and close relation of) to those sculpture of miscellaneous parts badly welded together and given to people that are interested in bikes as a present, so that'll do  ;D never excuse for crap welding, ever, ever  >:( ;D

Probably just grumpy me though  :-*

It sound like you havn't had much luck then. :o  The one I have has stood the test of time, not gone rusty and watertight most of the time.  ;D
