Re: All Change.....

Good luck Steve, I know its a passion for you and not a career. Nett zero is putting us in recession. Forcing beginners and Coffin dodgers off the road. Manufacturers of all heat producing engines do not know which way to turn. Big cruiser market has taken a massive downturn. Do you actually "s...

Re: Hibernation

last ride Mid October. Two bikes surplus to requirement could not sell them at the price I thought they were worth ( and even discounted) Never went to bike show.... and why? When manufacturers release them on the net pre shows and bloggers galore give you all aspects of them close up. Even getting ...

Re: bye bye telelever

It does, it is also morphing into an RS, getting smaller and less robust like all of us.

Re: The Bike market today.

Other factors may include the fall of CBT`s. No younger people coming through. E cycles and scoots ... no cbt, no road tax, no insurance.

The Bike market today.

Is it stalling? I think it is. I have two bikes surplus to requirement both odd balls , relatively scarce but collectable. Never thought i would have a problem moving them on and it is not, apart from todays values in doing so. Will not buy a more suitable bike to serve my current needs until I find...

So today, first ride on my 1250 r and a mot since dumping it at our eldests last October. Service due reminder on dash (I`d forgotten about the fact that it had been there for the last 3k miles) Anyone bought the aftermarket plug in diagnostic interface and app?

Tyre pressure warnings on dash.

Peoples be aware, from my experiences, the valve stems on newer bmw wheels are not friendly with certain compressor air line unions, they will in fact deflate your tyre rather than inflate. The valve stem does not allow full encapsulation and seal of the standard air line union. I first noticed this...

Re: bye bye telelever

Has to be said, Telelever is something I too am loathe to lose. I've ridden a few "normal" bikes in the past few years and without exception I find them "boingy" compared to the Rockster. That said, the R1250RS with Active/Dynamic suspension adjustment is very nice... until you ...

bye bye telelever

So reports have published the telelever (only on two boxers at the moment GS and RT ) is not to be employed on the new 145 HP 1300cc model range. That will not go down well with the massiv. TBQH I do not notice the difference of an extra 50cc over my old 1200 lc. I will not be enticed by extra power...

Re: Urgent information request

You may need willing hands to help you bump start it in the morning! My experience of this was a clack rather than a click and it was the starter motor. fortunately I had a willing wifey to push me off.

Good luck.
