BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

We had one of those moments the other week when my mates F800gs flattened his battery!

Luckily we was stopped outside someone's house who lent us some jump leads!

Once home he ordered the motobatt MBJ-7500 jump starter

Its smaller than my mobile phone

That has to be wrong!

That works out at an average of 100mph!

I think your time must have been reset at some point

Bargain!

I have been looking for a summer set of textiles and some of the prices are mental!

No there wasn't many there but that will be due to its location and people not willing to go that far I agree it should stay in the UK. My understanding is that they now own the track and they did all their testing there prior to the first round so maybe they thought it would be a good idea to have ...

Does anyone watch the British superbikes?

First round was this weekend at Navarra for the first time

Some pretty good clean racing and some promising signs from the OMG boys and also Danny Kent

Bridewell not so great!

Panman40 This measurement is on both brake and clutch at the closest point to the bars between position 1 and 6 It's pointless measuring at the ends of the lever due to them being adjustable and different length The main point is where you would grab the lever As you can see they are about the same...

Cheers, one of the first reviews from nippy Norman’s mentioned that the brake lever doesn’t bring the reach closer to the bars as in the description though :( , this would be the only reason for me swapping out. Remind me if I haven't replied in a day or so and I will measure the distance for you :...

They are a span adjuster similar to the stock one but with 6 positions

I replaced mine with a set of wunderlich levers and they are 1000 times better than stock

Yes they are expensive but worth it for me

I watched something about this a fair few years ago!

When you change your bed or stay somewhere new like a hotel they reckon it can take up to 3 nights to get used to it before you sleep properly

Panniers are always off until needed and top box is always on as it's a pain to remove

I'm in no position to buy after her indoors got a new car recently so it's A for me

The pressure won't show until you start riding the bike
