What other bikes do you own?
As well as my glorious new(ish) RT, I do have a couple of other bikes. This us 'TANGO', my 2000 year CB500. She's done 17,000 miles now, and is ultra reliable. I purchased her just to take the Isle Of Man for the moto GP (watching, not racing!). It was my intention to sell her shortly after, but tha...

Re: OCD cleaning...!
I wasn't totally happy with the downpipes, so following a tip on here, I purchased some of this: http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad54/sullivj/CBD17CAE-2EF7-4121-BD3F-457996F392EA_zps4vu7emjh.jpg It's grittier than Autosol, but does seem to produce a better finish.

Re: OCD cleaning...!
Thanks I'll give that a try. I was worried that it may have been painted, but now I don't think it is, so autosol should be fine.
Yours is looking good.

2014 Front wheel removal tool
Having realised despite owning half of machine mart (!),I didn't have anything to undo the wheel spindle.. So I bought one of these. The end hex's are removable (to reveal a 3/8" drive hole), but it easily fits in the spindle with them on. £17.99 on fleabay. http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/a...

Re: Headlight Adjustment Broken?
Thanks David. It's booked in to BMW next week for a service, so I'll get them to take a look.
I wonder why there's no price listed for the cable section on real OEM?

Re: Crud Catcher
I suppose it will keep some dirt off the link pipe (and make it harder to clean).
But wow - it is REALLY ugly... Looks better suited to a GS in my humble opinion.

Headlight Adjustment Broken?
My headlight adjusting knob just seems to spin one way or the other, with no obvious change to the beam.
Any ideas what might be broken? Is it connected by a cable?
Thanks in advance.
