    GEN 2 Suspension Help - Rough Guide Please

    Looking at the handbook suggests I`ve set the bike up as a 85kg rider for sports riding i.e. track. All front and rear rebound/compression have been set. Now as I`m 95kg will this make a difference? Should I be softening them slightly?

    Alpinestars Leather Trousers Sizing

    Looking at Alpinestars Missile V2 Leather Trousers and I?m having an issue with the sizing. I?ve contacted different suppliers and they have gave me different sizes to order. So my dilemma is I?m in between a 32/34 waist and when reading up on Alpinestars sizing you add 18 on to your waist size...

    What?s Happened To Clinton Enterprises/Racewear?

    Are these guys still around or did last season with no spectators at the races finish them. I know they changed from Clinton Enterprises to Clinton Racewear. They normally send emails every week and and this time of year you would think they would be getting the new season kit out there. I know...

    Stalhbus Master Cylinder Bleeder Valve

    I purchased the Stalhbus bleeder valve for my 2012 standard master cylinder to go with my HP bleeder valves. The size is M8 x 1.25 x 16 which I?ve been told is correct but the valve rubs on the front fairing on full lock. Anyone else had this issue?

    Looking to leave the bike over winter (6 months) on front and rear paddock stands. Is this totally safe? They are Harris stands so decent make. Normally leave it on my ABBA stand but need to use the paddock stands this time.

    GB Racing Covers

    The last 3 bikes I?ve owned I have fitted GB Racing covers. I think they are great products, my only issue is the white lettering nearly always comes off. Any suggestions on how to re apply the white (paint?) lettering?

    Best Sat Nav For S1000RR

    I have been toying with the idea of a sat nav for the bike for a while now and need some info. Which make and models do you guys recommend? How easy to install to the bike? How easy to wire up?

    Would You Retrofit The Standard BMW Alarm?

    When I bought my Gen 2 the previous owner had removed the factory fitted alarm. Is it decent enough to retrofit or a waste of money? Is it sensitive, does it drain the battery? Is there any insurance saving to have by having it fitted? I had a Datatool on one of my Suzuki?s and it gave me...

    BMW Motorrad East Kilbride

    Just a heads up to let anyone who uses Douglas Park in East Kilbride that they?re moving to Glasgow. They will be based at Pinkston Road beside where the cars get serviced from 20th July. Pretty easy to get to off the M8 coming from the east or west. Closer for me so I?m happy.

    HP Speed Bleeder Kit

    Looking at the HP Speed Bleeder Kit for my Gen 2. I`m guessing they work by opening a quarter turn then pumping the lever rather than opening and closing, so much easier for bleeding on your own. Are the HP ones worth the money and do they work as intended? Or are there just as good kits out...
