Re: What did you do today?
Revisited the Yamaha dealer again in Portsmouth. Just for a walk around and spotted a Niken GT. My wife said it was ugly, she's not into bikes these days but there is something about it I liked. Now the sales man knows me after the MT10 he loaned me that burnt out the ECU after 50 miles. Anyway he ...

Re: BMW goes auto
Bring it on. I doubt I'll be able to afford a new one and I'll need to stick around for another ten years or so to get a used one but why not? I'm surviving out of spite these days anyway.....

Re: What did you do today?
Just ordered the crap aire sticker, it was loads easier than the last time I did it in 2016. I think googly translate helped in a big way.

Re: Potential owner in Yorkshire
At least you get a reasonable choice for an RT screen, mine had the sport screen on when I got it. After a couple of soakings and I changed it for the Wunderlich marathon.

Re: Potential owner in Yorkshire
Hello and welcome, You'll find Yorkshire a great place to live so don't worry about that. I think the noise problem will be down to tyre choice and the variable road surfaces we have. There's somebody here who will be able to tell you where the noisiest roads are around Humberside for your test ride...

Re: Dunlop RoadSmart IV - BOGOF Deal
Handy to know as I need a back tyre for my old GTR that's not been on the road since 2015. I have been looking at prices and am shocked at how much some places want for such an older tech tyre My nearest participating dealer is Shorrocks in Preston.

Re: Battery Life
Ordered this EXIDE ETX20CH-BS last night from Tayna and it was here at 1030! 20 minutes to get old battery out and new one in, another 20 minutes trying to get the battery cover back on. Gave up, there's a strap around it.

Question is do I stump up the dosh for a better battery knowing ...
