So after one month in India I returned and the new pillion back rest from Road Styler had arrived. I installed combined with the flat rack.
As you can see from my daughter sitting on the pillion seat it sits a little too far back with the Wunderlich pillion seat.
So may need to look at either...

I am currently on a 1 month Ayurveda and yoga retreat in Chennai India. Learning much more about this.
Unfortunately it also means my ride is sitting at home back in Germany and missing some of the best of the riding season.
Welocme. Slightly younger will be 61 later this year and a slightly older bike, '21 classic. Also in Germany. A little furhter south in Mittle Franken.
Agree some great information on this board and so far enjoying the ride. Only had it 2 1/2 weeks with just over 1000 km's
Welcome. I have had my '21 classic for just over 2 weeks and put 1100 km's on it. Some basic modes and love it. Last ride was a BMW K1200S I have had for 20 years.
Close up of the rubber section. Almost impossible to fold back. Very thick and strong rubber.

Tucked away and easily removeable if needed. Fed the wire between the rubber gromet in the attachment area on the lowest side.
Well the reason for the purchase was ease of manouvering in the carport for space management. Good side effect is that the bike stands upright and I can check the oil.
But yep wold be easier if the sight glass read the oil level on the side stand

In typical german fashion it is a combination of several words. Broken down it is literally: Oil Messuring Stick.
But if you want to get your point across maybe you need to frame it to the engineers:
Hey Dipstick add a damn Dip Stick will you!
But for me I have resolved the issue...
So reading this chat has made me paranoid about my side covers. Anyone looked into something like the above? Way too long but can be adjusted. Havnt pulled the cover yet to see if they can be attached but could be an option.
Thoughts for those of you who have investigated it?
8Euro for 2 on...
Today I did a final adjustment on the front to accomodate my riding boots. Went for a quick ride to pick the daughter up from school and must say the feel is completly different. Easy to shift down but even better up shifting small movement of the foot and can find the rear shifter very easily...
