I will leave it till the end of the month, to give other a say as to what date is best for them and everyone.
It would be nice to get a 6+ size group of us together.

If its any help, I'm not fussed if its raining or dry.

If mid-week how about May 7th , 8th or 9th
If weekend, how about May 11th or 12th

Could do the 7th ,8th or 9th.

Hello all, I was just thinking if there are any members who would like to meet up for a coffee and a ride out. There are some great roads around the Brecon area to ride. But if anyone else has a thought on where and when, post it on here. I was thinking of meeting up in mid May at Abber Bus Station...

Picked up a nail in the rear tyre this morning, noticed after a drop in the tyre monitors pressure on the dash. Got home and tried to plug it with a rats tail, no joy. As both tyres are nearing the end of their useful life have arranged a recommended mobile tyre fitter to replace both on friday. Off...

I replaced my battery on my 2016 last year more out of precaution really! The battery was good but a couple of times I had the bike not turn over and the clocks reset so I thought best to be safe than sorry :) Mine does the same if i use the kill switch or stall the bike. Won't start unless i turn ...

He's busy trying to drum up some interest in a UK meet this year.

My 2019 is still on the original. Do about 10k miles a year and use it during the winter, dont know if this helps its longevity .

Sadly David you might not have a lot of luck with this request. Most of the serial attendees are committed Michael's meet up in July. If there's no interest then possibly best to concentrate on the 2025 meet which hopefully the usual suspects will be available for (and some new faces).

It wouldn't happen to be a mate of yours selling this?

My friends just bought one of the new 1300 gs's. Quote to change from his present bike1800 quid then they decided they wouldn't cover him. Got 850 quid with Bennetts in the end.

I'm in the Picos mid may but if your plans change to early May then I'd be keen on meeting up somewhere around the Brecons.

My 1250 RT is very dark blue metallic but the V5 states states black.

Tape it to an old credit card and keep it in my wallet. So I've always got it with me.

Cancelled mine when the bike got to 30k miles as the suspension isn't covered beyond this.
After a poor experience with a potential claim and the fact that the exhaust flap isn't covered it didn't seem good value for money.
