I've had a N...

The neck roll is attached by plastic pins that snap, fix is drill a 2mm hole and insert the stems from a rivet. Visor used to let in water spray in heav...

Re: Petition Government to fix the roads

Read yesterday to repair all the potholes, it will cost £24 billion. Going to have to be some big savings or massive road tax increases to fund that lot.

Re: R1250RT - check your screens

Just checked a 2020 and 2019 RT, all fixings ok, and the pins and circles all have the blue sealing paint on them.
