Jonna Benz (the instagram BMW rider / model) has invitied quite a few people on the BMW S1000RR Owners Only Facebook page. I'll confirm the times this evening but I'm down for a visit & then we're all off for a good few hours riding out if you're interested in joining Andy?

I've got mine on 30mph. Perfect for those stationary and mobile 30mph speed cameras... I do take extra care to hold the starter button down wouldn't want to accidentally double my speed in 2 seconds and be banned ;) Huge, if you are using the pit lane limiter I'd advise turning the Bank angle...

If insurance is a key issue try for quotes on KTM's 1290 SuperDuke My friend has two fault accidents in 2 years (saying goodbye to both a Triumph Street Triple & Ducati Hypermotard). Aged 25- insurance for a 2016 brand new KTM 1290 superudke was ?400 / year fully comp. Seems some KTM's are...

Jimmy looks lovely, didn't you get a discount as it was painted a shade of pink not red ;) ?

This is the same BMW branded insurance underwriter that providers the free 5 days ride away insurance. Unless you have 6 years no claims and no points, who is deemed too much of a risk to be provided an annual quote & as such 5 days ride away insurance was declined...

Link to an advert on their facebok https://www.facebook.com/flareaudio/posts/1405963919441820 Will also show reviews and feedback on comments My dad has them but hasn't used yet I was interested by at the NEC in 2014 I had custom plugs made and they're so quick and convinient compared to...

Gents own up! Man, 33, ?attempted sex with a Suzuki motorbike?* http://dailym.ai/2oF0nUP Kevin Chapman, 33, allegedly attempted to have sex with the Suzuki motorbike Court heard the alleged mechanophiliac also 'punched and kicked' the vehicle Champan, from Ashford in Kent, denied exposing...

Thanks Andy you star it worked first time National version GB - does this mean its right hand drive?

Thanks gents. Will have him fit one of the two ha... once I remember which box they're in. Running in service tomorrow which is over a week to do 600 miles on a new bike.. The shame ;) @Soofsayer he's based near Bury / Rochdale. Williams is probably closer but AJ sorted out the demo onwards...

Thanks for the link Alex. Much appreciated. Does anyone have an opinion of the longevity between the listed street and occasional track compounds of pads listed above? I believe the 10-14 Brembo Calipers are exactly the same as 15-16 + now 17- onwards? Shame they haven't stuck the HP4 Brembo...

For me it wasn't based on the physical cat difference but more to do with the Euro 4 (always harping on at this). Very taken in by the base grey / black colour and the Motorsports looks stunning at a distance (even seen the other direct of traffic on the M27 and I was a little jealous!) BMW...

I've only tried the RR demo. Alex think that's you & me both for trying R / XR's Especially when all I can do now is commuting (but hey we have a fun bike for that!)

Stephen have you ever ridden either of the other S1k's & is your pops enjoying the XR? I'll try the covers on asap I return to the North 👍

So as of Friday the words became reality. My dad had a fabulous '15 R1200R, perfectly sized (low seat height), nice torque curves, sounded gorgeous and even had an auto blipper. It seems having ridden my s1k occasionally it was missing some of the ferocity of his down the line bikes such as...

When the s1k gen 1 was launched Im sure it was around ?13k? At the time obviously more then Japanese offerings. How times have changed & its now the best value when spec'd up (taking in to account extras like DDC , CC & autoblipper)

Don't forget this was the Euro 4, so that 4kg difference means a 15/16 would of had the extra top end and track time due to a higher power to weight difference (lol see if that comment winds anyone up ;) Tank range and every day usability fall hands down to the BMW. You know this as...

Specifically what gen are you interested in? Dyno' my 16 2 months and 4k miles in. Just a Yoshi R55 end can to a car dyno 189.8 rwhp

Re: Alex - My new toy... Ha ha, its only 4kg heavier then a 16! Im going to guess its the Akra race can that looks like the superleggera shorty for the 17? What does this mean regarding previous posts on removing servo's? Have you lost the warranty due to the EXHUAST fault code? How many...

What mileage are you requesting? I'm with Bemoto, 24yo.o and 8k inc commuting. Obviously not up to your previous mileage If they say no to you they'll kill my policy when I need to extend the mileage (6 months in, just upto riding season, 5,500 miles so far)

AXA are the underwriters used by BeMoto for both my policy at 24y.o. and my dads R1200R (soon to be 17 XR) give them a try, mention both the forum and Baron Van G and you wont go wrong. Best of Luck GChick ;)
