Side cars are absolutely a no-show down here in Spain. I have never seen one on the road, except for vintage models and one H-D. If you have a Mega-comete or something like that, maybe I'll have to drop in for a passenger ride - must be exciting business of the "hang on to dear life" kind. On a completely different topic, someone asked off list the following: ***************** Hi Roberto, You didn't mention anything about the dual headlamp situation is that available where you are at? I was considering buying an assembly and retrofitting to my single headlamp GTS here in US. If you have them on your GTS are the headlamps individually adjustable for aim or does the adjustment system work both lights together? I've never gotten the whole story from the list just seen bits and pieces. ***************** I've decided to move it on-list so everyone knows for sure. Yes, they sport dual bulbs and I believe they are individually adjustable (confirmation from other euros? I never had to mess with them and she's now in the shop for maintenance, so can't check myself). I might try to locate one for you, but I guess you should check if it's legal where you live because of homologation standards and such before you take the plunge. Let me know. Roberto. PS: my bike has a "pass" switch that momentarily turns on both lights at once for flashing, but does not have four-way blinkers. I understand this is different in other countries, such as the UK. Anyone to confirm and see who got what? PPS: I've spotted two big black-garbed guys on a red '93 with Krausers in front of my house today in Vigo, Northwestern Spain, close to the Portuguese border (second time in a year I see another GTS). Any of the euro guys might know who they were? our lister from Porto, Portugal? I didn't catch the plate, but I'm curious.
