You don’t say how old your bike is, if it’s under warranty get it booked in.

No. I tend to use level 1 sometimes 2, but I find 3 too hot tbh. Why do you ask?

Only looks really, the OEM is very robust. I’ve just boxed mine up on the shelf. Swapping over is as simple as pie. Perfect fit. The OEM will probably (aesthetically) withstand road rash chips a bit better because of what it is, i.e. heavy plastic (of some sort) but the chrome or black gloss...

Nice colour, lovely bike that, enjoy 👍

Well I replaced mine ages ago with a Wunderlich black one, it was top quality and fitted perfectly but having said that I’ve been looking at Aliexpress this afternoon and tbh their equivalent is about 1/4 of the price I paid and looks pretty damn decent.

Ok, great, thank you will take a serious look at what’s available and maybe treat myself….

Nice job 👍. What’s the ‘fit n finish’ like then on all these parts, I’ve often seen the adverts but never gone ahead even though the prices are dramatically different…..

Thank you. I have noticed this last week or so not being able to log on, at all, which was extremely unusual. Straight on this morning.

As long as it’s not leaking, it’s got one (i.e. still has the old washer there) and is torqued up ok no worries. Just swap it out next time 👍

I replace the fob battery every year for piece of mind really and certainly as soon as the key fob battery warning icon on the dash comes up when it’s power starts to fade, I buy a good brand and swap it out, never had a problem. Some of these tiny fob batteries have a removable clear skin on...

I know Luis, it’s not easy to work out what’s going on to be honest. I’ve been toying with the idea of buying a 2nd Base R18 because there are so many low mileage bikes about now at much lower prices than a few years ago. It doesn’t make sense really on any rational level but because I like the...

Jeez, that’s hot. Somewhere in between would be nice. It’s about 4 degC here, damp and properly manky.

Well well, just found the first advert in the UK for a new Euro+5 R18 for next year, with all the updates. List price quoted as £21,220. Be really interesting to see if this sells knowing what we all do and after all the speculation. It doesn’t say it’s in stock so i presume it’s floating the...

Ahh, that sunshine, makes me jealous. We’ve had nothing but rain, damp, more rain, mucky roads for weeks now. Not even seen a blue sky either it’s so overcast. Longest day today thank goodness, at least tomorrow i can tell myself we are over the hill and better days are coming!

You’ve done well then, it’s become very difficult here to trade in any bike and get a decent price for it against a new one. Across all brands. Its well documented in the UK.

Don’t answer if you’d rather not but did you pay full MSRP or anywhere near that? Reason I ask is the considerable range in prices we pay in different Countries. No escaping the fact America has struggled probably the most and huge discounts have been adopted to shift stock. I was in my dealer...

It has been done and there is a YouTube video of the process with before & after result. If you search you should find it. Personally I didn’t like the result the exhaust looked wrong and sounded unpleasant BUT in person it may have been completely different and we all want/like different things...

Well I owned a FE for nearly three years and in January of this year bought my Roctane. I’m about 104kg and 5’11” tall btw. IMO the Roctane is more comfortable. Why? Well a combination of these changes really, It rides on bigger wheels front & back, has mini apes, the standard seat is a...

Enjoy your bike, great choice 👍

Congrats, enjoy it 👍
