Just got my recall letter today for my K46 2018 Gen 3. Not only do I expect them to collect my bike, but also bring an equivalent performance loan bike and additional loan bikes for all of my mates who want to ride out with me that day - even if they are at work, free fuel for us all too plus a...

Suggest you have a look at the K46 Workshop manual for some some of guide to degree of difficulty? I found this on YouTube - turn the sound off as it is just ridiculous music and the writing captions look as though it is SE Asian (apologies if I got it wrong) - if the video is as the title...

I'm much older than you Colin, at 61, so my three bike multi-bike insurance with Carole Nash with only me as a rider and no pillion cover with 9 years no claims for my 2018 RR, my 2005 Daytona 955i and my new 2023 937 Monster was ?401 for a combined 10k miles pa fully comp, leisure riding only...

Great story Stu, thanks very much for writing it and sharing it - I'm sure you've got have very big balls to attempt the wall of death for the first time. Do you know whether he had ever ridden one before in the past, what motivated him to build it, apart from 'cos I can'? - Our world needs...

I have a 2018, I had choices, I went for a MotoGP CRT stubby from SC Project, and Austin Racing do one too. I bought mine direct from SC Project, but that was before Brexit - you can see and hear mine on YouTube here

Good to hear you're on the mend! Under my pillion seat there are plastic guides facing either forwards or backwards at the front and back which protrude slightly which fit the Kriega nylon straps really well - the ones which come from Kriega with an aluminum clasp. You just hook the nylon...

Hi Colin, Hope you're recover(ed) ing from your various ops to fix your limbs back in place after your accident? All good with me. I did a 2000 mile tour through Spain and France with my son in June, put a 20L Kriega pack with a 10L Kriega pack strapped to the top on the pillion seat using...

Getting the rear wheel out is easier than returning it. As Alex says - especially release the brake hose first from the mudguard, and as Stuartb says, captive spacers are your best friend when replacing the rear wheel. Then I push the rear brake piston hard against the rear disk to give me more...

The red reflector post on the nearside is slightly obscured by the shrubs in the picture - but it is there, it sits on top of the white/black post - they really help when the visibility is poor in say fog or misty conditions.

Alex, it is easier than you think. Gather up a few mates who like to ride at the same pace as you do, plan 200-250 mile days and grab a room online or in person as you get close to the town when you feel you've ridden enough that day. Our only rule was to be on the bike, ready to go by 09:00...

Apparently my son tells me this is similar tape used for lower temps than the light blue stuff above and is called 3M 8991 Polyester Masking Tape - 66m long and only costs ?11.69 here It is marvellous tape and is very easy to apply, adjust and leaves no residue on the paint work.

Hi Folks, I just did a 2000 mile A/B road ride from Santander in northern Spain over to Nice in the south of France and took the Roscoff ferry home to Plymouth on my 2018 K46 Gen 3 with my eldest son who was riding his 660 Trident. Notes for others riding through Spain and France. 1. When the...

There are several clues on the road in the picture which riders should also be aware of, especially if the road is unfamiliar to them. 1. The yellow box surround on the chevrons on the outside of the corner indicate that there have been previous fatalities in road traffic accidents on that...

Lost my Dad two years ago to Sepsis as well - 10 years previously he had his prostrate removed and at the time of his death he was going through treatment for bowel cancer and had had a colostomy bag fitted 2 months before he passed - he awoke one morning very disorientated, couldn't get out of...

Oh and by the way, I can thoroughly recommend doing the public road sections of the Le Mans circuit. Down the Mulsanne straight (D338), past the right and left chicanes which are closed off, continue past the Kink down to the Mulsanne Corner roundabout, first exit right onto the D140 up...

I got that nugget from a RoSPA Chief Observer from Cumbria who I met on the boat journey home on Saturday - I'll check with him again, but you know me - I would still ignore the no filtering and suggest that if anyone wants to argue, they could bite me.... Anyway, more's the point - how's you...

Riding my 2018 K46 - had a great 2000 mile 10 day ride with my son from Plymouth>Santander>Pamplona>Pyrenees>Nimes>Nice>Lyon>Le Mans>Roscoff - 90% A roads and B roads - stayed in cheap edge of town or small village hotels for <?40 per night. External daytime temperatures ranged from 22C-36C...

Had a headlight bulb blow on me last week in France on my 2018 Gen 3 -same model as @vro551, 7.5A micro fuse under the seat blew too. Fortunately my son brought some fuses with him - didn't know about the warning switched off in the menu, must change that. Thanks Alex
