I took the bike out today for an essential journey to the shops and found that the indicators weren?t working. As this is the 1st time the bike has been out of the garage since i bought it late last year, it took a few mins for the memories to come back. I remember the indicators only worked 1...

HP dark screen for a gen-3 : ?80 + P&P Metzeler M7-RR Sportec tyres, matching set, almost new. These have been stored under my car in the garage, so are a bit 'mucky', but a great set of tyres. ?150 + P&P

As new pair of BMW Motorrad Goretex Sport boots - size eu47, uk 12.5. Only worn around the house for maybe an hour - never been outside. Bought them on a whim with the idea of wearning a thick pair of socks (I'm a uk 12) but it makes them too tight across the width if I do that. Will take...

FOC - I snapped one of the R&G bar ends ('cos I'm a tool) but there's 1 good one left. Just pay P&P and they're yours. Wunderlich tank bag, in great condition, with the fittings, ?100 + P&P. I also have an ABBA stand that soofsayer sold me a while ago, but ashamedly, it's still in the...

Roll up - Roll up .. Here we have for sale a lovely, 2 owner from new, low mileage (ish), hardly ever farted on (complete lie) comfort seat to fit a Gen 3 RR. In very good condition. ?150 + P&P. 1 lovely genuine 1 owner, very low mileage (< 1000 miles) arrow end can with optional baffle...

Finallly, after months of indecision, I?ve pulled the trigger on a gen4 sport. Having had (2 different) gen 3?s for 4 years now and having lusted after the gen 4 since it came out (ish), the team at AJ in Rotherham have finally persuaded me to part with my hard earned in exchange for a silver...

After approximately a year since buying an arrow end-can for my my2017 i finally got round to fitting it today. I?ve never taken much in the way of spanner?s to a bike before, and this was my 1st ever end-can fitting. It?s gone fantastically well - i really dont know why i put it off for so...

The bike has been a bit 'vibey' for a few weeks now (my2017, 12k miles) - been back to a couple of different dealerships (for differences of opinion more than anything else) but there's never any problem found (since they replaced my exhaust headers a few months ago to cure this very issue). It...

I?m planning on doing a quick trip to Portugal in October with the missus, but she?s not comfortable about being pillion for such a distance, so the plan is to take the bulkhead and rear seats out of my van and transport the bike in the back. It?s a DCIV Transit Custom LWB but the rear seats...

As most of you guys will have done, I got the bike out whilst the sun shined recently (seems like months ago already) and noticed on my last day of play time that it was running a bit rough.. Vibrations at under 5k revs, hesitation when accelerating and (the only way I can describe it) the...

My one and only offspring passed her mod-2 last week so now she's legal to ride up to a 35kw bike - I thought this was an ideal time to get her in to the BMW family, and one F800R sport later (delivered yesterday) & she's over the moon .. Weather has been horrendous, so today will be her first...

Wait .. don't start on me just yet .. My neighbour is an ex-biker - a lovely old chap - just turned 82. Used to ride one of them there cruiser things - the VN800. Anyway, I thought that it'd be nice to take him out for a blast but of course, the only way he's going to get his legs over the...

Hi, Does anyone know if an exhaust can which conforms to ECE R92.01 is considered road legal in the UK? I've done the usual googling but can't find a definitive answer. Ta xx

Your old one Andy?

After nipping into the garage last night I was saddened to find my rear tyre flatter than a badger on the a1 and a (what I later found out to be) rivet poking through the rubber. A quick weep later and I'd plugged the offending hole however in doing so, I turned off the alarm on the bike 'cos...

Last Sunday (1st July) I attended a Bikesafe course in Sheffield that i'd booked (after being on the waiting list for a few weeks) a couple of months ago. I didn't know what to expect, how the day would be run and what I'd learn as a result. Executive Summary: Do it - it's well worth the...

You were following another biker, but either he or you had the worlds loudest exhaust! Made me jump when we passed :D

I'm off for a couple of weeks travelling down to Portsmouth, across to Caen, down through France via Limoges (stopping there for a few days) and then to Florence via some as-yet-to-be-determined route and around Italy, returning when i can be arsed :) As much as I'd love to do a jimmy-esque...

HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate expensive parts not far from the object we are trying to hit. HYDRAULIC FLOOR JACK: Used for lowering a vehicle to the ground after you have installed your new front disk brake setup...

According to instagram (i feel hip and young already) BvG is flogging his HP4 Carbon for ?10,999 - Looks like a bargain to me. I'd have bought it except for 1 small minor problem .. I'm skint :) Hope it goes to a good home.
