Stupidly enough, I dropped my bike just now whilst reversing out of my garage. The doors were open and I was reversing when a gust of wind closed one of the doors. Without dismounting the bike I twisted my torso to push the left door open and I lost my balance and off she went to the right...

Scott. I did not want to high jack another thread but I have been dying to ask you. How on earth do you keep the undercarriage of your bike so clean? I mean, not even water marks👏👏 c’mon!!! I try to keep my bike spick and span, god knows I try, but I feel I cannot compete with you unless you...

Hi everyone. I just received a letter dated yesterday regarding a recall. As you can imagine, I instantly thought the headlight made it to a recall, however, the recall relates to the pin securing the foot rest for driver and passenger. It looks like this pin is likely to be affected by...

Dear all. I would like to add a set of engine and panniers crash bars, preferably in black as my engine, frame and fork is also black. I like the moustache shape that Motea does but it seems to be only for the classic model. For the panniers I much prefer the Wunderlich ones. Ideally I...

Hi everyone. I have been toying with the idea to purchase a full face helmet (retro) to go with the bike for the winter months. The Bell Bullitt keeps popping into my thoughts, but before I pull the trigger I wanted to know if anyone has tried/own one and what is it like? I have an open face and...

Hi everyone. I often wondered if this was an option on the B and TC and apparently it is, however, the user manual is very vague or I just need my second morning coffee. Being bored and indoors I decided to read the manual and I came across the attached but I cannot tell how to set it up. Has...

Went out for a ride today organised by the dealer I bought the bike from. Weather was a bit wet earlier on which unfortunately meant we had a very poor attendance, however it did improve very quickly so we headed out. Took the scenic route to a Bikers Cafe in Royston and had a mingle with other...

Is anyone in the UK going to the BBU this year? I am planning on going but won’t go to the Ace Cafe, instead I will join the convoy on the M25 and ride the next 75 mls down to Brighton. https://london.acecafe.com/event/ace-cafe-reunion-brighton-burn-up/

Hi guys. Did any of you receive 2 fobs with your bikes? My E92 and F13 have spare fobs and a mate of mine just picked up a new GS1250 and that also came with 2 fobs but my R18B just came with one. Cheers

Ok, I was in my way from work today riding in the motorway at about 70mls/hr when suddenly my TFT went red and gave me a warning saying that the tyre pressure did not meet or match (can’t remember exactly)the set point or something like it and asked me to stop immediately. Needless to say I...

Hi guys, I took the bike for a 50 miles ride today. One thing I noticed after getting close to a speed camera was that the TFT was registering 62 mls/ph however, the analog dial was displaying 50 mls/hr. I normally look at the analog display given that it is on my line of sight. I stopped at a...

Well, she is finally here. Sad to say goodbye to my M1800R which the dealer told me was already sold to one lucky buyer but happy to start a new chapter with Bimmie. Straight away my riding attitude has changed even if blasting Metallica and Gn’R on the motorway coming home. Even my non bike...

Hi all. My name is Anibal and I live just outside London in the UK. I have been riding motorcycles since I was a teen and I am the proud owner of a M1800R which I purchased new in 2008. I am collecting the B next Saturday and sadly my M1800R will need to go as there is no room in my garage for...
