    New RR owner, hello from India!

    Hey Akash, welcome. My family are originally from Panchkula, so yeah , I can endorse the city beautiful title it holds. My grandfather taught me to ride a geared Vespa when I was about 11 on one of my visits there ( I?m uk born). The thing weighed a f*in ton, could barely get it off its centre...

    Bike values?

    Indeed you can , however if you have good credit & this is your final intention , there are cheaper ways to do it. (Deposit & low interest loan... if you are prepared to chop & change a few zero interest cards, the interest amount could be minimal).

    What disc lock do you use?

    Glad you got sorted pal, Chris is indeed a pleasure to deal with, product is very convenient & easy to use. I hope I never find out how effective it is.

    Radar detectors

    The AirPods work just fine & I find them super comfy. They don?t however drown out engine & wind noise. I feel most relaxed with well fitted earplugs & no audio disctractions. On a long distance, steady tour, I may have a different viewpoint. My main concern is the volume has to be relatively...

    New can... sc project

    It doesn?t tarnish anything like the OEM , a squirt of WD40 on a cloth brings it up a treat. I spray duck oil on the hard to reach OEM parts after each wash. Worked a treat on my panigale which is completely stock.

    New can... sc project

    Also completely agree. At the price point, quality, finish, aesthetics & sound are on the money. At the risk of tempting fate, I?ve been stopped for my number plate in the past, but the can has never been mentioned. The CRT rapes the eardrums, proper #metoo pipe.

    What disc lock do you use?

    Finally got round to fitting it today, literally took 10 minutes to do & Chris even gave recommendation on which size spacer to use based on the bike. Additionally, he provided replacement bolts specifically for the RR with the correct torque setting stated on the front. If any members decide...

    New can... sc project

    I have the same slip on in titanium. Way to quiet with the baffle in for my commutes, but remove it & it?s awesome. Still retains all the pops & bangs once the bike warms up. Love it.

    New 2019 BMW S1000RR: Rumour, Gossip and Intrigue...

    Completely agree, my 16 RR is black with forged, while bland to some , I use it as a daily & it attracts less attention than the 80?s tracksuit colour scheme. Colour schemes are a very individual choice & can massively change the lines & look (appeal ) of the bike. Personally, I think the 19...

    What disc lock do you use?

    Rossi lol, appreciate the compliment, name came coz I ?spent time? with a plus size red head in Italy. I ride like I just bought it..

    What disc lock do you use?

    I?m not sure about ratings, but it?s another convenient deterrent & as a percentage of our bikes value & maintenance, I personally do not think it?s excessive. As stated, my post was just a heads up for interested members. Chris has sold to numerous members on the red forum, so there seems to...

    Barons hp4 race

    Chris is practically married to Alastair Fagan , who doesn?t hang around. Tbf he made pretty good progress in his early commuting videos.

    What disc lock do you use?

    Gents I?m not sure if anything came from the group buy , but there is a respected member, Chris, on the Ducati forum selling these for ?168 delivered! He?s a pleasure to deal with & the product is the real deal. I have no financial interest in this, just thought it may be of interest to forum...

    Pcp

    I agree with tripplejimmy, if you think there is the slightest chance of keeping the bike for more than the 3 yrs & your credit rating is good, you are almost guaranteed to get a better bank/lender rate. That said, deposit contributions on PCP can sway the deal towards dealer (Blackhorse or...

    HP4 v 1199s Tricolore

    Matter of opinion , but I feel the opposite. On the road, the 1199 is an annoying handful. The 1299 is more refined, geometry changes have improved handling , fuelling is leagues ahead (but still unpredictable ), but theres still lots of character, drama & of course low down power. As dry day...

    Looks tiny, doesn?t help by the well insulated rider.

    New 2019 BMW S1000RR: Rumour, Gossip and Intrigue...

    Completely agree with the size part, I?ve previously commented, they are becoming smaller & skinnier. Many riders make them look like mini motos. I much prefer the chunky nature of the RR compared to my panigale.

    Seat tags for attaching Kriega bag

    Kriega actually supply extra straps & a diagram of how to lock them together for the front ones. Seems to work well enough for lighter loads , but for spirited touring with tent etc I use bungee cords from one side of luggage, under tail tidy to the other side. This just stops it moving forward...

    Have you seen the lower section of non ventureshield hard ridden track & road panigale?
