Re: Best All Around Tire For The RT

I can respect that choice however i've never known a tyre which doesn't deliver the levels of confidence in both lean and load as the BT23's. We all have our preferences and I only wish everyone, regardless of tyre choice, happy riding and safe journeys wherever you are. My apologies, the tyres I h...

Re: Wiring in Innov dashcam

I installed these on my previous 2022 R1250 GSA and contacted Innov directly, they were amazingly helpful and talked me through the installation which was not aligned with comments from others who had installed the cameras. The Innov team are absolutely great to deal with and talked me through a con...

Re: Old Photos

Some great photos which brought back memories of all the bikes i've owned starting with a Suzuki T500 Twin 2 Stroke back in 1979, little did I know what I was getting in to some 45 years later and too many bikes to admit to owning. How much fun have we all had over the years before discovering the c...

Re: 2024 North Yorkshire (England) Meet

Good day folks. That sounds like a good weekend away in 2025 and it's around 385 miles one way from my home to The Motorist. I'll pencil it in to the diary and assuming my passport is still valid i'll make every effort to get south of the border. I'll also look at a weekend run in Scotland and start...

Re: Greetings from Aberdeenshire

Thank you.......i'm thinking we'll need more than luck to have any hope of progressing. Can't say we don't try and it gives us somewhere different to go on holiday :cheers:

Re: What model bike do I have?

Never used the decoder site before and it was reassuring to find the RT that I purchased last week is as per the documentation. Thank you for the link :thumb: The website below is interesting and may answer a few people's questions. Type in your 17 digit VIN number and it'll give you the specificati...

Re: Greetings from Aberdeenshire

Hi Jesim1 Thank you for the welcome. I'm around 35 miles north west of Aberdeen and always a room available, secure garage and good home cooking. I plan 3 or 4 weekend trips each year around Scotland and you'd be more than welcome. I've got 44 years this year on 2 wheels and had a multitude of diffe...

Greetings from Aberdeenshire

Good day all wherever you are. Not new to bikes but this is my first R1200RT Had 3 R1200/1250 GSA's but at my age, comfort is priority 1 so the RT suits me just fine. Looking forward to contributing to discussions and hopefully not asking too many daft questions. Thanks for the access to the forum S...
