I have the TuneIn Radio App if I need to listen to the radio.

Re: Close to get the RT

I have my music loaded onto my phone and blue toothed to an Interphone headset.

Works well and a lot cheaper than the radio.

Re: For those of us with a 49ltr Top Box.

Are you saying NOK300k which would be almost £25k?

Re: British riders better?

As I once read somewhere in a previous life, any fool can drive fast in a straight line.

It takes a special person to drive quick when the road isn't going straight for 300 miles :-)

Re: Links to this site ?

Thought that might be the case but wasn't sure.

I'll try again as I have a few biker FB friends.

Re: Links to this site ?

I tried posting a link on my FB page but when I clicked on it, it took me here logged in as me.

Not sure if that would work for others but I can either log out and post the link or maybe there is some way of you making it possible to share on FB?

Re: Bmw warranty

Its a 2011 with 12150 miles on the clock.

It took the Emergency Assistance, a 50 excess, and I opted to pay monthly.

Works out at roughly 33 pound a month.

Re: Bmw warranty

As my bike is slightly older than my last one I decided to go for the BMW Warranty.

Hopefully nothing will go wrong but I at least will have some peace of mind.

Re: cylinder head protection bars?.

I have BMW covers fitted to mine and, as I dropped it off the side stand the other day, I am grateful that I have.

It was a very slow drop from not a great height as the bike was lent over anyway but there is a small scuff in it. Rather that than the cylinder head itself.

Re: Passed My Bike Test In April Last Year

There was an adjustment on my current policy of just over 500 quid.

My last bike was a 2015 Tiger Sport and I'm not exactly sure what I was paying.

It all comes off direct debit each month anyway. :-)
