Re: New helmet time. Which one?

I have a HUGE head (68). I have an HJC IS MAX, flip front in Fluro.

They don't sell it in my size in the UK, but they do in Germany, so I got it from there. At around £135, it was MUCH cheaper than most, but still a decent helmet with no too much wind noise.

Re: NAVIGATOR V mounting .

I got a suction cup Garmin mount for the car and removed the cup, and put this in its place. It hasn't fallen off yet!

Re: Travel insurance

They covered my 72 year old mate with heart problems for off road riding in Slovenia next month, albeit it cost him over £300. You may need to speak to them.

Re: Annual meet 2023 Discussion Thread

Tim and I stayed at the Dumfries PI last year. The food there was OK - it was as you would expect. The best meal we had locally was here: https://www.cavensarms.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Cavens-main-Menu-MAY-2023-Web.pdf Very popular pub food at realistic prices.

Re: 2012 Rack Crack

I have probably overloaded my top case before, which wouldn't have helped. I always ride with the case in situ, so I wouldn't really see the plate. As it bolts directly to the honeycomb, it should provide some extra strength / support for the case. I have the fitting instructions, so I'll take a loo...

2012 Rack Crack

My 2012 has developed a small 2 inch crack in the plastic rack, which is hidden with the Top Case in situ. Has anyone else had a similar problem? I've been chatting with the guy who makes these and think I'll invest. It would hopefully stop the crack getting worse than it is now. https://www.cymarcb...
