Do BMW need to bring out a ladies S with a couple of dimples in the tank? I'm going to email them right now.

I'd love to read their response!

Could make it the norm, some blokes suffer from the same problem

I have a Powerbronze dark double bubble. About £40 at NEC show. Fit pretty good and does make a difference even to a short arse like me

How short? I only ask as I'm 5'6" and interested for comparisons sake.

Oh I'm miles taller at 5ft 7 in my Sidi's
Ignore the comments from those lanky feckers. We all know that small is beautiful

Hmmm... I think I'm 5'7" in my Sidi's as well.

Got my MRA screen today. I've just offered it up to the bike but it looks like a massive difference.

Sorry, I dont like the look of that.

 

[fatbob]

Well I think it looks top , and besides it works much better than the almost useless OEM one.
You'll get used to the look and not having to pick flies out of your teeth

Its a case of function over form for me but its not making my eyeballs ache.

How to create an RT tourer in one hit

I've ruined my fingers getting the rubber thingies in and out. There has got to be a less painful way. Looking good though

There is

 

[unionjack]

Come on then cough it up.

 

[Godzilla]

Its hard to explain, I take the screws fully out, then put them back in a tiny bit and use a pair of pliers to pull the screw and rubber bit out, come out really easy. Put them back the same way as well

 

[unionjack]

Did that. I suspect that the holes are a wee bit smaller in the MRA screen. Its not coming again I know that.

Buy a spare set of nuts and rubber bungs, they dont cost too much from tasty nuts

 

[unionjack]

Definitely I'm not doing that again

We'd run out (of both). Apparently its meant for the washing I have been informed.

MRA screen makes a massive difference. Only draw back is you can't tell you're doing 150 ahem.

The MRA Screen stops short at bottom so leaves air intake unobstructed. The bike must look different , better or worse? Got photos of bike now? ???
