Ho-hum, it is winter I suppose.

That must have been painful in more ways than 1.

Had another key made,keep it in one of those wallet thingys about mine or her person.Don't trust meself keeping tabs on that pathetic little bit of plastic.

As per the usual Steve,if the renewal is stupid then shop around.

Never had headers turn red like that, and that includes me single pipe 2 strokes.Maybe they got special juice in them parts.

Bored,no,not really



Drove down from Calais in nonstop torrential rain,didn't stop the length of France. It was a lovely 19c here today

Or in the real world that is super BMW sensible :roll: i have a Touratech. https://i.postimg.cc/fW8Hvsgg/20210515-135417.jpg It is a super comfortable seat(mine is not heated, but why would it be :roll: )The comfort lasts for a hundred odd miles and then reverts back to the same comfort level of eve...

For the rider with the larger backside

Nothing but true comfort

If you fit risers(think you have mentioned it)then the bag doesn't fit properly. I tried it with the Wunderlich bag and the bars(as they rise)are to far apart and the bag hangs in the air.Had I not fitted risers meself,I think I may have stayed with the bag.

I had similar a couple of years ago when insuring the other half's car.They told me my house doesn't have a garage(and they are right)but we rent one opposite the house.They just about excepted it.

I have a K&N,purely because i have the powercommander wired up.Would be standard filter if the bike was standard.
