JM is shorthand for Joker Machine.

I like the Cone and Schooner mirrors because they're aerodynamic. My time with classic sport car convertibles taught me the benefit of tapered mirror housings. Way less noise and drag.

Motogadget also makes a nice looking clamp on mirror I'm considering.

Finally got around to wrapping the AC induction tube. Thoughts? I can't decide for sure if I like it. I think I do. The added contrast is nice.
