    Roctane being delivered Thursday

    As for detachable windscreen, I tried couple of them from Amazon, one clear large one, which flew away on motorway! and one smaller tinted one that i use now in the city. Unfortunately because there are only 2 places where it connects to the handlebar, it bends against the wind force on higher...

    Roctane being delivered Thursday

    I bought a foldable backrest from AliExpress for £85. It had a folding luggage rack too which was handy until road bump caused the luggage to fly and fall on it and caused it to snap. However, the back rest, which can be used for driver or the passenger was perfect. I guess if you don't carry...

    Occasionally losing power!

    Sadly that is the reality of UK weather,- this time of the year... early morning ride... 3 degrees! and afternoon return ride 15-17 degrees! not complaining though as it is a bliss when it is sunny anyway

    Occasionally losing power!

    Thank you for your input, I will sure to pass that on to the dealership in case they can't diagnose it correctly.

    Occasionally losing power!

    Thank you emgarciax. I definitely need to have it checked then, as no warning or engine light showed up, but it was as described above!

    Occasionally losing power!

    Interesting point. Didn't know it had one. You mean to protect the engine in case of catastrophic F failure of sort. Not sure. Because you would expect the dash or warning lights go Christmasy if that happens. There was no fault in the warning panel then. But the feel of it was exactly that...

    Occasionally losing power!

    Sorry, I probably did not explain it well. I meant it gets sluggish on the first and also on the second gear,- not starting on the second gear. So, when it happens, say I stop at the traffic light, then about to go, engage first gear, then more gas than usual for the take off...and it moves...

    New R18 ROCTANE rider

    Thank you, it is this one, right? https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/puig-touring-naked-new-generation-windscreen-bmw-r-24?sku_id=10596066 Although this one says 2020-24, mine is 2026, and looks a bit bigger than your windscreen, but I guess not much has changed since. Unfortunately they do...

    Occasionally losing power!

    Thank you Star-Lord, I thought of the clutch lever and have adjusted it, but that was not it. No work to the hydraulic lines, the bike has only 700 miles on, the air bubbles I will check. But as I mentioned it only happens when I have been riding in over an hour in hot day. The only mod I have...

    Occasionally losing power!

    Interesting thing is that the warning sign does not give any clue! and no, never touched the traction control button to be honest, never take this bike off road, not that it is designed for one anyway. I think instead of dedicated traction control button they could have added loads more basic...

    New R18 ROCTANE rider

    Hi there, welcome to the forum. I have the very same colour and setup as your Roctane. I got similar back rest I think. but what brand is the wind shield? That looks great!

    Occasionally losing power!

    Hi all, I have noted occasional power loss not on motorway speed, but instead on city ride on a hot day with a lot of stops and starts on the first and second gear. I think the engine became hot and then on the take off from stop, the throttle revs but it does not transmit immediately to wheel...
