Four is a good number. One antenna has no cred at all.

foglights on the roof, that's the prize. Of course, when it's
actually foggy, they don't work ....

I've seen the flanno lookalike jersey, but any links to the denim look
knicks?

I must have been looking at the wanna be bogans. Where do I find the
REAL ones?

You will often find them sold together for not much.

Or check torpedo7.com.au they have a light set on special for 20 bucks
that looks good.

Looks very good. I will check with a couple of LBS to see what they
have in stock, but unless you are looking to 'Bogan'* up your bike
with huge spotlights, this could be much cheaper than I thought.

Brendo I think you need to fight back by building a bogon bike.
Four HID lights across the 'bars, a few red flags sticking out the side,
a couple of mirrors and some Bundy stickers and you'll be in with the
crowd! Don't forget the big belt buckle on your nicks.

I don't know if belt buckles are the go. I can wear a silly hat,
though, and mount my cleats to some Blundstones. Add a pair of acid
wash full length knicks and I'm set!

Out here in Lower Chittering. Three brothers, all had their licences for
only a few years, boganning up their utes to try and outdo each other.
You only need one mudflap if it goes all the way across the back and it just
has to say "CAT POWER" on it. A three meter aerial on each corner (and a
tiny one for the radio). I knew their mother when she was 13 (not in the
biblical sense).

Checks collection of belt buckles, one with Aus flag logo, sees two pairs of
blundstones, several wide-brimmed hats. Hmmm, better shut up.

Hey, I had something similar, but they were on the front of the rack and
only halogens.
1 x 50W high beam
1 x 20W low beam
and 2x 20w slightly offset to wide beam for bush tracks.

Don't forget the big belt buckle on your nicks.

But then you have to wear an aukubra and you know what that means.
