Minor hardware.

Lee, being in the aero trade you may be interested in knowing that most, if not all, the fasteners that hold the body work on are not magnetic. Implies to me that they're some stainless alloy.

The handlebars are aluminum as are the footpegs, the passenger peg brackets, and the passenger hand holds. I plan to keep an eye on them for galvanic/intergranular corrosion.

I think your MG has a dry clutch like my airhead, so oil selection isn't so critical regarding clutch. I can't vouch for Rotella, they may have a blend that specifies it's okay for wet clutches.

The auxiliary lights you're showing seem great. With the deluxe wire harness that CSC specified for us, you won't even have to resort to the positaps.

Regards, Jay.
