Good time to give the bits that are too shiny a quick spray Chris, did a couple of my handlebar clamps a couple of coats of gloss black the other day - gloss paint + cold day = satin finish

Thank you Buster did u spot the split pins in the same position on the foot pegs Dave said I was being a bit over the top because they will spin around when you put them up and down and I said if you look closer the moulding line on the rubbers is even the same on both pegs running up and down above the split pin ,he just gave me one of them funny looks
