A good ride out

What'll happen if you're 15 mins late due to unforseen circumstances? will you be leaving at 12:15?

The plan is, Get to the Motorist Hub around 10:30am and have some breakfast then set off to do the ride. If anyone fancies meeting up at the Hub or along the routes stopping points? just show up

I've no idea? Sometime during the day

https://i.postimg.cc/XXSLRGvp/Screenshot-2023-06-06-120717.png Starting at the Motorist Hub just outside Sherburn in Elmet and finishing at Morrison's Selby. 95 miles, ~3 hrs riding time, excellent start point, 2 good stops with an extra fag break if required. (Credit to David. for the pit stops) G...

I have a 23 model GS and from what I've read BMW have done something in the ecu to stop people pulling the clutch on and revving the nuts out of the engine, I think mine his some sort of limiter at around 6k while coasting with the clutch pulled on. The end of the line for tunnel symphonies

Have you had your bike remapped by Hilltop? Or is this just the usual hearsay gossip from the web? If you haven't had any dealings direct with Hilltop yourself, you want to be careful of what you are writing as this could be classed as Libel. Your best bet is just to put links up where others have ...

Looking forward to it

Put it in the connected ride app and it looks like this. Should be good

As things stand, I know I'm going to struggle with a full day event, especially in this heat. Rather than cancelling at the last minute, I'm wondering if someone else will take this ride on as it will be a good un. Sorry to bale but health and safety come first. The situation may improve as the sea...

I'm more than happy with my Schuberth C3 Pro and wouldn't hesitate in buying another one when the time comes.

Back in my RT days we used to strap a self contained GPS device to the bike and away we went. I realise that things have moved on now. Does the all singing and dancing TFT unit act like a Carplay system (among other things) and mimic the BMW Connected App programme on your phone? If so, how do you ...

Sargent Wilson will be in attendance also.

Them plastic side stand puks they use to protect the showroom floor tiles in bmw dealers work a treat on tarmac. They're free too

@motormuis welcome to the forum This is an old thread and @MrW hasn't visited since 2021! Anyway do these bikes have an oil cooler? Yes they do, but unless your actually moving and creating airflow through the cooler it doesn't really do anything. The only real answer is fitting a fan like the RTp ...
