    Is this Chain Length Right - Gen2

    Hi, so I took my bike to BMW dealer for service and MOT and have a few concerns when I got it back, not least ?150 for fitting chain and sprockets I supplied. What is most concerning for me though is I supplied the brand new chain in box at 120 links as it comes, and they fitted this as was...

    Help - random indicator failures

    So bike goes for service and get told number plate light is out (d3 tail tidy). Get home and have a look and find out not only that, but the back rear left indicator (watsen design) is not flashing either.

    Seat Cover Options

    Just posted this on the US Forum but being an EU option think I may have more luck here - Thinking about getting a seat cover with some colour to suite my 2014 Motorsport. Love the ones with white but realise thats going to be a PITA to keep white/clean so all black. Luimoto seems to be...

    Gloves for Cololer months - BMW?

    I currently use a pair of Alpine Star 365s which have served me well but are driving me nuts with the inner linning pulling out all the time despite the Xtrafit technolgy BS. Thinking about another pair as whilst they have not been ideal in the very cold I reckon with heated grips and silk...

    GAP Insurance

    Anyone got Gap Insurance either with BMW or another provider and willing to make recomendations? I asked dealer for a quote for what they call Shorfall but it was ?10K & ?15K which seems a bit much (2, 3 & 4 years). Costs were a little on the high side but everything I have compared to has...

    Stupid Question - Filling Fuel Tank

    Today after 80 miles my reserve light came on for the first time (just got the bike) and the computer started counting down from 30. Got to the garage and filled up with about 15 to go so expected with a 17.5l tank (not sure if that includes or is plus 4l reserve) it should take a fair amount...

    Well after having 2 CBR600 (f then an RR) I felt the time was right to at least try a litre bike so booked a test ride at Honda on a 2012 Fireblade and BMW on a 2013 S1000RR. First up was the Honda which imediately felt at home with comming from a 2009 RR. I had expected a bigger bike to be a...

    Huggers

    From what I have read I either need to fill the hole or get a new hugger ASAP if I dont want stone chips under the bike. Seems to be that the Carbon Web gets recomended (?150) as a good option but trying to see how that compares to the Ilmberger at ?220 - and ultimately other cheaper options...
