I may well take a black one for the future look if you can put one aside for me. I actually got electrics on bike now and headlights working. It may well get changed up as I also have an LED rear light replacement on standby

No worries Ben. I suspected you had the wrong end of the stick somehow, it helped clear up any ambiguity about how the rings work.
It also prompted some very helpful info from Darren... Thanks Darren, good to know the rings will fit Carbon rims okay.

Yes that lamp, if not the exact shell design, was fitted to lots of bikes including beemer K100, Darmas and Pantahs.
There's a guy selling the lamps in the US and the fitment list he gives is very impressive. It follows that my rings will fit all those bikes too.

Thanks for the plug Jez, glad you're still pleased with your kit.
Ironically the reflectors and lenses of the (g)olden days were actually quite good. It was the bulb technology and current available, that let them down. Anything with a 12V alternator and a Cibie conversion was probably better than a Bosch equipped Monster.

No worries Albie, no danger of running out just yet. I suspect supply will outstrip demand!
Hope to sell a few more though, as I have a Commando in need...

Okay I'm in a bit of a mood and I apologise for that.

News of these kits has clearly propagated onto the world wide web and I have recently received a flurry of enquiries including from the USA.

Thank you to the well meaning folk who have put my contact details out on various mediums. However if you have done so would you kindly remove them.

Some of these enquiries have been a bit weird and from the sort of folk I would rather not deal with, seeming to assume I am prepared to jump through all sorts of hoops for their convenience at my expense.

I engaged in this project as a bit of fun and extended the availability of the end result to club mates. To be fair you have treated me very well and been very kind with this (and other projects), the harsh outside world is a different place!

From now on these kits will only be available to UKMOC members.
Thanks for your support my friends..
