Servicing .

Just a quick note , had my annual service carried out at The Workshop in York , very professional service all with no affect on your BMW warranty would recommend them to all BMW owners up north , also the big issue !!!!! a hell of a lot cheaper than main dealers .

Bar Risers

Has anyone purchased bar risers from China ? One company are making them for £21.00 thats a hell of a difference to Wunderlich / Illium Works. Any info is most welcome.

Re: Do the Tubular Handlebars Change the RT Riding Position?

Never heard of that over here in England , i would have a good test ride before you choose !!!!! then you are sure if the riding position suits your own needs before you fork out your hard earned cash . Quality parts to adjust bars and footrests are not cheap !!!!!!

Re: Top box too small

So that tells you that BMW engineers do not listen to their customers , after all £17,000 for a motorcycle is not cheap !!!!!
