    Importing .gpx files to use on the BMW Connected App - PC & Iphone

    Has anyone else found the route import has stopped working with the Connected app? It used to work a treat but I just can?t get it to import any more.

    Mirror indicator lens

    In case anyone has the same issue, I checked at my local dealership today. You can?t just buy the lens, but you can buy just the indicator mechanism. Comes in at just under ?100. Still not great, but a whole lot better than the full mirror at around ?300 each.

    Mirror indicator lens

    I think you?re right. Thanks. Bought one on eBay for the bargain price of ?150. :dispirited:

    Mirror indicator lens

    I was cleaning the bike yesterday and was gutted to notice the indicator lens on the left hand mirror was cracked. It?s obviously been hit by a stone. I don?t suppose that, by some miracle, you?re able to replace the lens without having to replace the whole mirror. Does anyone know?

    Which cheese

    I?ve just fitted my new Ilmberger carbon rear hugger. I was just wondering, and not sure if you guys know the answer to this.... Are the original screws made from cheddar or Comt??

    Importing .gpx files to use on the BMW Connected App - PC & Iphone

    The steps are: 1) click save as and choose GPX 1.1 2) you should then be asked to confirm download 3) at the top (where the page URL is) you should see a blue down arrow to access the download. Click that. 4) at the top again, there should now be an UP arrow to send it somewhere. Click that...

    What you wearing?

    i do love my Rukka suit but I find the padding in the legs is geared up for adventure bikes (fair enough I suppose). I?ve got a KTM advS and it?s great on that, but I don?t find it particularly comfortable on the RR. I reckon a 1 or 2 piece leather suit would be much better suited for it. Its...

    What you wearing?

    Moto central in Hinckley are ordering me in the one and two piece versions, to try them out. looks like a great suit in either form.

    What you wearing?

    So, it?s been 6yrs since I?ve owned a sports bike. I figured, as I?m on an RR now I should drop the Rukka for a one piece suit. Dusted off my old and trusted Dainese 1-piece and tried squeezing my racing snake body into it. Who would?ve thought they shrink hung up in a wardrobe?!? So, I?m now...

    Importing .gpx files to use on the BMW Connected App - PC & Iphone

    Same here. I use the MyRouteApp app (rather than via browser) and then just click ?Share? and you can share it straight to the Connected app. Quick and easy. MyRouteApp is great for planning routes on your laptop.

    Luimoto seat cover

    I did 280 miles on Thursday and my RRse was dead. I?ve got a trip to the Picos and Portugal booked for mid October and thought of riding on that rock for a week has made me think I need another plan. It was either do a J.Lo booty programme or mod the seat. The seat took one for the team.

    Luimoto seat cover

    Thinking about it though, for those 5 days a year that we get hot weather in the UK I?m prepared to take the risk of having a fried RRse. For the rest of the year I need to do something to soften up the seat, to avoid a battered RRse. Whatever works for everyone is the way to go. I just hope...

    Not heard that one.

    Luimoto seat cover

    I toyed with doing it myself, but am going to take it to an upholstery company instead. By the time you?ve got the right staple gun and staples you?ll have paid for a professional to do it. the gel insert requires some cutting of the seat, so I?d rather someone else do that. I?ll let you know...

    Luimoto seat cover

    I had a day out on the bike last Thursday, when the UK weather remembered it was summertime. Given the heat, it was a jeans day. To cut a long story short 7 hours in the saddle made for a great day out - but left the buns sore. I?ve taken the plunge to change the seat cover, along with a gel...

    Gen 4 S1000RR Test Ride

    Great write-up. I?ve got the M-Sport and it?s the first RR I?ve owned, and been 10 yrs since I?ve owned a sports bike. I?m loving every minute of it. Got a trip to Portugal planned in October and can?t wait to take it! I?m interested in the flapper mod. I did it on an Aprilia Tuono I had. Have...

    Had a test ride...

    Having owned an Aprilia Tuono in the past, I bought some Moto Skiveez padded shorts. I know it sounds daft but they do the job. I was out on my M Sport for 8 hours on Sunday, without a problem.
