Re: A first world problem...

My commuter bike is a Honda NC 700 and I love it. Large "frunk" holds full size helmet, low center of gravity makes for superb handling, bike is very inexpensive and totally reliable. And I'm averaging 68mpg on low octane regular fuel.

Re: Cupping Tires

I believe tire cupping is a factor of weight. Operating at recommended pressures I consistently get some degree of cupping with Michelin PR3 and PR4s on Yamaha FJR and not with lighter Honda NC 700. My RT is new. And lovely.

Re: Ram mount location on 2016 r1200 RT

Please keep ideas coming.  I would prefer not to remove the BMW badge.  I appreciate the responses! Thank you.

Ram mount location on 2016 r1200 RT

Where have others chosen to mount a ram ball for phone or other use?  Replace screw?  Clamp?  Prior RT's were easy with vertical torx head screws.  The LC is more of a challenge.  Thanks!
