J & S at Delamere in Cheshire near Northwich. http://www.jsaccessories.co.uk Since I found all my Dainese kit started leaking and wearing out last year, I have completely re-kitted myself from head to foot from them. Good service and I believe the largest clothing / accessories showroom in the U...

Have used EBC, as f90x says above, and the standard BMW ones in my Brembo callipers (2001 model R1100S) and both are fine for normal and track day riding.
Just make sure you get the right ones for your callipers.

Probably because the standard bike has a 5" rear rim and the Sport has a 5.5" rim, allowing for the centre to be 1/4" offset as the rim bolts onto the final drive in the same place without any shims or packing added or removed. Did a test on a quite famous racer and British Champion a...

I bought a pair of the standard plastic ones from Chris (Boxerscott) and they are near enough unmarked. Unfortunately they will not fit my single spark engine heads, as they are from a twin spark engine. The third mounting underneath is totally different. My mistake - I should have asked. Up for sal...

Well the S1000XR was an absolute weapon - bout the same as my tricked up Gixxer was, only with a sensible "adventure" riding position. Suited me down to the ground except for a really serious vibration through the bars and footpegs at 60 to 80 mph which also made the mirrors unuseable cos ...

Used to use 98 in the 11S when at the 'Ring and still saw 40+ mpg.
Can't get it here in the Shropshire / Welsh borders but it averages 45/50 in regular road riding.

Booked test rides at Williams on Wednesday for a GS, R1200RS and the S1000XR. Should be fun.

Just put a set of PR3's on for the Trixster's Flash tour down to Melle. Done just 2000 miles now and the rear is just starting to be less profiled (ie not flatted off yet) in the centre. Front doesn't seem to show any wear at all yet. Now previously with the Bridgestone BT 023's at 2000miles I would...
