    Couldn't stay away.

    Welcome back Malic. I've toyed with changing the RR for a more mileage friendly bike, but I know I'll miss the buzz of a sports bike.

    Sport Touring Tyre

    Yes. Got them on last week. Not been out on them much yet though, but first impressions are very good. It was Michelin power rs that was on the bike, which I never liked from the day I fitted them, possibly why I've not used the bike a lot the last couple of years. I managed about 60 or 70...

    Sport Touring Tyre

    I've got the tyrees, but I haven't had time to take my wheels off yet to fit them. Hopefully when I get home in 10 days time I'll get them on and get some decent weather to scrub them in

    PPF

    I put xpel on my 2016 when bike was new. It has no yellowing isses at all. Fitted the kit myself, with a mate. We found it time consuming and tricky to fit, but the end result was woth it, and there is still not 1 stone chip on the bike.

    Sport Touring Tyre

    I've decided on a set of road 6. My mate is going to get me a set ordered, for getting home from work. Hopefully they are sporty enough for the occasion fast ride I get these days, and if I manage to get away for a track day, which is unlikely, I'll just have to get suitable tyres at the time.

    bimmer utility

    I'm using motoscan. Works great, and cheaper than gs911

    Sport Touring Tyre

    I think I'll give the road 6 a go. Really don't think I'm doing enough fast riding to need the power 6, or s23 type tire.

    Sport Touring Tyre

    My gen 3 is in need of some new rubber. It's always been sporty tyres I've had on it, k3 and power RS. Loved the K3 tyres, but never particularly liked the RS tyre. Most of what I'm using the bike for is long runs in all weather in the north of Scotland these days, just back from 4 days doing...

    Insurance

    I've always had multiple bikes and cars in the shed, not being used, but always insured. I am now paying that much on insurance, that I think it's time to stop insuring them. In the past, for all they were costing, it was a no brainer to keep them covered, just in case I took a notion of taking...

    Part For Sale Ventura Luggage Gen3

    I've got Ventura rack, and the large bag, for my gen 3. I'd highly recommend it to anybody. Bag is ample size for a week's touring. Takes 10 mins to fit the system before a trip. Works with my evotech tail tidy, no bother at all, no mods to bodywork, or exhaust. You can fit rack over pillion...

    Part For Sale Gen 3 Comfort Seat for Sale

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I think I'll just get a new one from BMW. They can get one in overnight for me, to Inverness. I'm desperately trying to justify keeping the RR. Going away for a few nights next week, with my mates, going to do the nc500 and then see what the weather's like, maybe...

    Part For Sale Gen 3 Comfort Seat for Sale

    What are your thoughts on this sea are they worth the money? I missed out on yours, and was bidding on one on eBay yesterday, but got outbid at the last minute. BMW want £268 for one, but unsure whether it's worth paying that much for one.

    K and N Cleaning Kit

    But it's worth it! I swapped a B14.5 rs 4, for a GLC63 Merc a couple of years ago. I'd say the Audi was economical compared to the Merc!

    Gs-911

    I have motoscan, and it works fine, and was significantly cheaper than a gs-911. Is it about 6 or 7 k the exhaust flap opens, might be worth checking it's not jammed up

    New Battery for K46

    Which did you decide to go for? My 2016 is on its original battery, so only a matter of time before it needs replacing

    Annual Insurance Rant

    The cost of that should be shared across the market the think electric ***** is doing good for the environment. Why are the sensible people in society paying for their idiocy!

    Annual Insurance Rant

    I'm just off the phone, and they asked straight from the off what the modern bikes were, and was a straight no when I said s1000!

    Annual Insurance Rant

    I got a quote from Bennits today, £620, so good bit cheaper than bemoto. Will try getting quotes from CN and Footman James, as mentioned above, and see what they can do for me.

    I have a good postcode, on one of the Scottish islands 😁

    Annual Insurance Rant

    I've just got my bemoto multi bike policy through. Gone from £460 last year to £750 this year for my Husky, s1000 and Sp1. Who are people using for multi bike, as I want to put my T3 guzzi on the road this summer as well.
