BMW R1200RT/R1250RT Forum

I prefer the Iconic red- not that I would buy one though.

I thought we all relied on TPMS and computer read outs now- do I have to get my hands mucky.

Sorry David, no can do Niece's engagement party.

Thought my Hastings Direct renewal was good at £110 but tried the comparison sites anyway. It came back  Hastings were again cheaper but only £100. Rang Hastings to query price match and they said theirs is now coming in at £98.  Result one happy RT owner.

Put me down as a possible too.

Just got renewal from Hastings and £110- well pleased . On the other hand renewal for my car has gone up 39% on last year for same cover by Lloyds. Shopping around, Aviva beat everybody else hands down. There is no Customer loyalty anymore and Insurance companies are their own worst enemy!

Typical I get the ok to go and its a rain off-mind its just started peeing it down in N Lincs so good early call off.

Maybe up for this one. Looking at google maps will take me approx. 2 hours to get there coming through Sheffield on a weekend to start point. :-\

I have the BMW low seat and it is a plank. After 100 miles I can't wait to get off and have a stroll around to rest my rear, but at least I can touch the ground with both feet now.

Unlucky Paggers, I would have bet it would have fallen to the left also, as never had a bike fall to the right in 40 years motorcycling.  

Sorry David, that weekend is World Speedway British Grand Prix at Cardiff Millennium stadium, places already booked.

Great video, if I knew you were filming I would have overtaken you and played a starring role- my wife says my best view is from the rear!  :))

Just spent a good few hours with David, Simbo and Paggers in East York's and  N Lincs on the latest Northern Monkeys Tour.  Ok, on my local roads so not too taxing and sooo relaxing when you know what's after the next bend. Hope you guys had a good , uneventful return to NE and NW ...

Moring men, N Lincs weather update- Broken cloud, sun trying to come thru, dry and 15C. Expected to be dry most of day might get isolated light shower and high of 21C. Due to neighbour plying me with drink, will not make start point, but may meet up later in day if you do the rivers route. Have a go...

Will update you with local weather for N Lincs in morning ,even if I am unable to meet up or not.
