how about talking to this guy at park lane, if they can source us the alpha kits without the wait and shipping costs?

I'm in for a group buy... sooner the better as I'll be on the next trackday in a couple of weeks!

I know theres a ton of posts on this, but i though it might be useful for anyone looking like i was a few months ago to put all my results in one post. so... re-mapped 2012, standard headers, danmoto decat. all tests were done at msv tracks, 5500rpm on proper db meters. Akra shorty -...

So the final damage is... £480. The first call i got was 'its ready.. that'll be £590 please' after a chat with the service manager the price was brought back to what i was quoted. Also had a bit of a delayed return due to waiting on some unreturned calls, but other than that decent service from...

Just a thought.... my bike is currently having a new sump fitted FOC while its in for the 18k service, bmw offered this, i didnt even ask for it. My thought is, would they be as forthcoming with the free replacement and covering labour if i had 'tampered' with the sump in any way? (i.e. high...

he did say it was a worst case quote and should be less... Fingers crossed! I have their s1000R to play with on tues so that should be fun! :D

Mines going in tuesday, been quoted £550 by Bahnstormer Maidenhead, but supplying my own filter and couple of other bits. Will let you know the final damage!

The handroids i have are great, only problem i've had is that i have the levers set quite close to the bars, and when moving my fingers from round the bar to over the lever, the plastic bits on the back of the fingers sometimes caugh the levers. easily fixed by moving the levers out a click.

most dealers seem to be pretty good at delaing with the well know common faults (switchgear) even if the bikes out of warranty. whats the side stand one? not heard anything about that? cheers dave

i have a decat pipe and short akra can... that tested at 110.9db at 5500 by msv (who own brands, oulton, cadwell, snetterton & bedford) i had a baffle made for the stubby akra and it has come down to 103. (cost 40quid from MHP in colchester) My only concern now is the trackside testers than...

Hi Dave, i think we know the same people going, shona and gary clark? so i will more than likely see you there, i'll be the tall lanky guy with the black/gold track fairings. thats a nice dilema to have! what group are you booked into?

Decisions decisions... I have dunlop qualifier 2s on at the moment, which will be replaced by k3's when they are shot, just to try something different. But i've just acquired a set of wheels for track... so the question is, which slicks to go for??

My first trackday on the sthou.. or any bike for that matter! Anyone else going? Cheers Dave
