Fair play.....at least they're not forming a rolling roadblock like the Harleys and GS's usually do.

The TST RS is on my radar.....seriously tempted.

Another vote for Kriega.
I've got the R15 and R20.
Both are well thought out and very comfortable to wear when riding.
Recommended.

Great price!
I'd have bought one, but I've already got a givi.

Nice route Andy!
I do that one too!
Can't get my bikes out at the moment....builders!
Will be out and about shortly with a bit of luck.

Clearly you're not an American.....not sure why they do it, but.....
I know of a few who have added so much power to already powerful bikes as to make them unridable.
Weird

The one in your pic appears to be a fairly old Chinese design.
Nothing wrong with them btw, I've got one myself.
If you haven't already done so, check out CJ Autos for lifts....

Does the Ohlins come as OE, or is that an upgrade?

+1

Wasn't Miles Kingsport awarded Best UK Dealer recently?

FWIW...get an old knacker as a starter bike.
About 30% the cost of a new one.
You'll avoid getting yourself stressed about slow speed drops doing u turns etc.
Keep it for about 6 months...thrash...

Colour me green!
Several years ago we planned to trailer our bikes down to the French Alps....basically do it in one hit, sharing the driving between the three of us. Had everything set up and...

Any issues getting that chain to line up with that 180? in there?

The DID chain tool is one of the best available.
Only better one that I'm aware of is the WHALE. (Easy to piegn over hard rivet links)

My thoughts exactly.
I looked at that cutaway model for about 20 minutes trying to make sense of it.
Pointless....it just made my head hurt.

Tried a KTM1290 SprDuke, Tuono 1100 Factory, S1000R & an MT10SP
All very special bikes.
Unfortunately I wasn't 100% happy on any, felt as though I was being taken for a ride by the bike, rather...

I have a 2019 CB1000R.
3.56gallon tank.
My average consumption riding hard is 50.9 mpg (over about 3 years)
Theoretical range therefore 181 miles.
But obviously you wouldn't run it dry, so real...

It's looking like hipsters have had their fill of motorcycling, hence the decline in kaff racer style bikes.
On a positive, they brought a few refreshing ideas to the table, but I won't be sorry to...

Very nice!
I too love to see a little rim tape properly applied and not overdone.

If you've not yet committed yourself to the Ohlins, have a look at Maxton.
For slightly more money you can get a 30mm big piston fork conversion and a rear with high/low speed dampening.
Amazing...

Brilliant value for money!
Halfords lifetime warranty works too....I took a 15 year old torque wrench back for repair, there was no quibbling, just a straight swap for a new one.
My only...

Great choice Tony!
Enjoy!

AVO 8 ?

Ha!
I thought I was bad!
I usually get the first service out of the way before I start pulling them to bits.
Well done!

Doesn't really matter.
Personally I'd go with the adjusters at the rear to make adjusting them a little easier.
