Re: IDIOT AUDI DRIVER
I hate it when we label car drivers as idiots (or worse). They tolerate us filtering past, and overtaking when we want, but when they want to get past us, we label them idiots or twats! Come on guys, the biker just had to ease over to the left, allow the car through and carry on with his ...

Re: IDIOT AUDI DRIVER
Probably going to get trashed for saying this:-) but there appeared to be plenty of nearside space for the rider to move over and let the Audi go without being inconvenience... Regardless car or bike, if someone wants to go faster and I can move over, even if I have to back off a little, ...

Re: Shocking video
In UK Cities more and more drivers are running red lights. Usually because they are tailgating the vehicle in front only focused on that vehicles brake lights, though some just dont care and rive through anyway. This is one of the reasons I am cautious about ...

Re: Stebel Nautilus
I am interested as well Telesvar. I have seen quite a few on this forum fitted to LC’s (that you can readily purchase fitting brackets for) but not on early model RT’s like yours and mine. I have a 2007 R1200RT. Yours is an early model, mine is not (2008) :alas: Will see if we c...

Stebel Nautilus
Just purchased a Stebel Nautilus compact twin air horn. Was wondering where would be the better place to install it
on a RT. Anybody that has gone thru this, would you share your experience? And , is it even worth the trouble?

Re: Engine Oil Filter Correct Fitting
An old mechanic told me to smear used oil on the new filter's seal ring. Gave an explanation why that is better than the new oil, didn't pay attention, Wish i did! Make sure it threads on easy, all the way, and just hand tight it. You will never have a problem. And he was right!...so far :...

Re: the coating of my wheel (rims) is letting loose
What do you think, is the quality the powder coating better / stronger than the one that comes from BMW? I truly hope it is. The coating is as good as the one that does it! The ones done on my previous bike 5 years ago are like new. My present bike is 10 years old and the rims are still good. Maybe...

Re: the coating of my wheel (rims) is letting loose
The coating on the wheels can be damaged when tires are being changed. To powder coat them is not cheap, but changes the look of your bike. I did my previous bike's rims just because i wanted that metallic paint that comes out as sun shines. There is a large variety of colors to chose from https://w...

Re: Pheasant 1 RT 0
Looks good, but for that money I would expect a bit of gold plating at least! Gold will not deter savage birds! How about a warranty, if this happens again, it will be in the house? It would look good in the beemer's community! After all, what are the chances this to happen again? Just a thought,&a...

Re: Guess the make
Looks like a two stroke triple 750 GT.
But yes, Moto Martin has some nice ones, and this could be one.
A jewel, never the less....
