Thanks guys. Am due to go under the knife at 10.00 am. Little bit apprehensive to say the least but lm sure things will be ok............... I hope 😊

Hi Rednine. Yes I reckon you may well be the oldest on here. I think I used to be at 73. Like you I expect, I’m a young 73 and do All and I mean ALL the things these young ‘uns do. I’m in hospital at the moment having a knee replacement, due probably to kicking off my BSA GOLD STARS in a younger...

Well today’s the day! I’m sitting in hospital at the moment, having booked in at 6.30 this morning. A replacement right knee is due after 2 years of discomfort. Had my last run out on the S 1000 yesterday and realised how much articulation my right leg needs to get on the peg. Hope I can retain...

Good read that Stuart, thanks👍

??? Don?t know what happened there. Should have been a thumbs up ????

Absolutely agree with you on that one Stuart????

Was out last night with some friends for our usual Thursday night ride out, when I/ we spotted a sports bike coming the other way. I knew instantly that it was the new 4th generation RR from its aggressive frontal view. Does anyone else think that it looks almost sinister, like a wild thing from...

This story has prompted me to tell you about a recent experience with my dash/clocks on my 2015 S1000RR. I sent my bike to my dealer, Allan Jefferies of Shipley for a 10,000 mile service in September last year. I too had noticed a white dust or powder forming on the inside of the instrument...

Again, it?s that time of year! Just been on with a guy named Abbas at Bemoto, who managed to sort me out with my insurance for this year. ?340.00gives me the Titanium policy and all the benefits it provides, including passenger cover! This is for two bikes, my 2012 Yamaha FZ1N and my 2015...

Only the obvious 😕 Very carefully is the name of the game. The bits that pop in to the rubbers can be brittle and quite easily broken I?ve heard. Try to see where these are and try to get your fingers each side and as close to the popper as possible. Then gently and evenly ease them apart. I...

I got my carbon hugger from them too and mine also has the hole. I made up a fine stainless mesh which I glued into the hugger. That stops any stones and stuff getting through. I thought it was a better alternative to just the hole and it looks better too.

Very funny that Jimmy👍 I?ll tell the lads it in the pub Tuesday night 🐕😂😂

Hello again John. That?s true about the S1000RR about these parts but I think it makes us a little select. I find the bikes stand out in a crowd and I for one like that. I wonder if we?ve bumped into each other without knowing? Next time I see one around here it?s likely it?ll be you I expect...

Hi John and welcome to the site. This is a great forum and you will find all you require on it I?m sure. Hope you like a joke too as I?m also sure JimmyMac and stuartb will have you in stitches. Incidentally I?m from Hull too, so perhaps our paths will cross, that?s if they haven?t done already.

Happy birthday Jimmy. Nice gift that. I like that sort of thing myself. Just wondered........ did Stuart return your pants🤭😃

It?s all in the mind Jimmy. No one will ever catch up to me but I still have lots of fun and adventure in my life. What could be better, an S1000RR in the garage🏍 good health 💊💉and a new woman in my life👩🥰 It?s just a number mate😊

😂😂😂

Oh God. This is too much😳 I can?t believe it?s come to this🤭 Especially as Jimmy says they were stolen off the washing line. A change of washing powder needed perhaps😂

Oh please stop it you two. It?s far too early in the morning. I can?t stop laughing 🤭😳😂

My headlamp lense melted on my Gen 3, just ticking over in my garage. Standard bulbs too. The lenses do get extremely hot even with the OE bulbs fitted. Luckily I got my headlamp replaced under warranty. I never let the bike idle for long now, if I can help it.
