I've never been considered as The Bus Depot's #1 fan in the past as many of
you are aware. I have nothing to gain by endorsing their products. However,
I did buy two sets of the Just Kamper's jailbars and have no complaints.
They look fine and a very good value, IMHO. Besides, if you are adding
jailbars on, it's not original anyway. Well, they will make your Syncro
Westy worth no more than $6,000 according those Poopontop Hell guys. =)

Merry BenTsmas & Happy Holigans, everybody.

ps: Too bad Just Kampers doesn't have a side window kit or a Doka kit. I'd
buy it if the pricing is similar. I suppose I could cut-up a rear jailbar
kit..... naaah.
