    What paint scheme should I go for ?

    looks like there was an explosion in the paint shop :( 0 out of 10 in my opinion. I still think that the "Full Factory" colours take some beating. Thats with silver wheels , white front fender , BMW Motarrad Italia is very similiar and also looks tidy!

    Are bmw taking the pi$$

    Re: Are bmw taking the pi$$ Answer to quiestion is a big fat YES ! Question to you Simon 1)why trade in for a HP4? As others have said I don't think it is special enough or will be built in limited numbers to hold its value any better than what you have got. 2) Are you finding that you have...

    Spider Stand Motorcycle Lift

    Thats my bike ;D I purchased the Bursig from a fellow member of the forum for £200 (Russell threw in a S1000rr cover) I thought I'd got a bargain as they are €419 plus delivery so you are looking at approax £350 all in. So spider is nearly 2/3rd cheaper! I was well pleased with my purchase and...

    Scott Redding v Bradley Smith ?

    And Crutchlow can? I'm all for the Brits but can't see any of our boys breaking the Spanish/Italian strangle hold on the premier class. With Casey out Crutchlow can get on the podium but next year with the best moving up from Moto2 it will be even tougher for him ???

    She's going back to the dealer !!

    i use the clutch all the time Graham,like I said I only use the quick shifter now and again. OK Lloyd the few false neutrals you got at Snetterton were they going up or down the box? I use the QS most of the time but only at 7,000+ revs below this it isn't as smooth. ???

    She's going back to the dealer !!
