    R&G bar ends bolt - 2015 model

    Hi all Tried to install R&G bar ends today but the inner bolt is obviously a very different size (slimmer) to the original BMW one and the expandable piece inside the R&G bar end simply spins on itself when trying to screw the R&G bolt in. Am I missing something? Or do I need to get some kind of...

    Removing fairing scratches/scuffs?

    Yep both ASV...I;ve just found Lampa Xerapol Plastic Polish (suggested for fairing apparently) and 150 GSM wet/dry sandpaper for prep. Will give it a try at least... Gotta replace the indicator too but that's fairly easy by looks of it... found an OEM pair.

    Removing fairing scratches/scuffs?

    Thanks Marc. I did a stupid thing today getting her off the paddock stand after I cleaned her and got her all sparkly...now I know just how heavy she is :sour: If auto finesse doesn't do it, is it better to get them faces rather than replaced in terms of money? I can replace the bar end (I was...

    Removing fairing scratches/scuffs?

    Does anyone have any good tips for removing scratches/scuffs from fairing? Fairly superficial and caught on corners of RHS front fairing. I've researched Autoglym and Meguiars but they're for paintwork rather than ABS plastic. The only option is the Motul Scratch Remover. Some say watch face...

    Crash Bungs - Advice please

    I?m just about to fit R&G Aero ones to my Gen 3, albeit I?m investing in some better tools first. My little T50 torx key isn?t cutting it to get the near side engine mount bolt out. Plus I need a new socket set and torque wrench...

    Blackbriar's Black Beemer

    Yep I prefer it to the new one. I was just saying to Marc that I prefer the way if handled as it?s more ?raw? and dips into corners slightly differently. I also don?t like the all in one rear light cluster on the Gen 4 as you can?t see the indicators clearly under braking. just putting some...

    Hi Alex I lived in Switzerland for nearly 5 years so was lucky with roads over there. when I get 'upgraded' on here I'll share some pics - I rode the Stelvio pass as well as some other amazing mountain passes over there. Being on the border though, i was very near Austria, Germany, France and...

    Hey there it's mainly leisure as I need the car to commute but I'm no fair weather rider... Honestly speaking, I prefer riding abroad due to traffic and road quality (France and Switzerland and Germany have great roads) but over here I'm still gauging where the best road quality is...decent long...

    Thanks! I put an SC Project can on..lovely little gurgle...ASV levers, a D/B screen and the rest are mainly guards/crash protection. No mapping or anything - she's fast enough! I had 2 Gixxer 600's and loved them, my first was a Thurndercat and abroad I rode (hired as too expensive to buy) a...
