Thank you, thank you very much

I repent from asking the question. Am I still going to Heaven?

City cops use them on my neck of the woods. When they put them up for auction they are trashed. I mean trashed.

Anyone ever use a 200 rear tire on an RT?

I was looking through the RT thread where people were listing problems


It seems like not many have high mileage.




Are there any folks here who ride cross country often and have over 100,000 miles on an RT
Then, I would like to hear if you had any problems.

On my last '16RT the neutral-first klunk would literally shake the bike. I can't imagine that would not be a destructive pattern over the long life of the bike. I have always rolled to a stop and pop in neutral to rest my clutch gripology. But with these RT/s the best suggestion I heard coming to a ...

I have travelled on RT cross country before so I am aware of those traits you pointed out. I guess I am more interested to know if there have been any improvements on the 2017 over the earlier wethead. Like, does the tranny still clunks?

Coming from a GS I am finding the RT quite different to handle at slow speeds; due to the much higher centre of gravity I guess. I definitely need more practice - this being a good lesson to me of that. It was damp, and just before the bike went over there is a change in the concrete surface causin...

Lot of guys in the K16 forum bought that horn on line.

Do you have a part number for it Wethead? Its right there Sulli [size=2px] BMW e39 525 530 Horn low tone - 420 Hz [/size] [size=2px] [/size] All you gotta do is ask for this in a BMW car-part dealership. But I must tell ya, a bunch of K16 dudes found the same horn on line for less than 70 bucks whi...
