 Nothing bad just me being an idiot ;D ;D ;D

Forgot to put some damn rear reflectors on ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) and the headlight aim was to low.

Most places will give the headlights a little twist for you to align them while it's on the machine. An apprentice once asked me where the headlight adjusting screws were, I passed him a 3/4" spanner and he looked rather confused.
