I've got the R1200RT SE with a few farkles fitted - fender extender, crud catcher, zumo 550 with a migsel bar - (great position to see the zumo), large top box and inner bags and a one piece comfort seat (much better than standard).

I tried to upload a couple of pics to the gallery, but it keeps asking me to create a category - not too sure what it means by this?

Then click on "MYGALLEY" on the new menu showing up.

Then select "My Galley" under Gallery Name

There you can add a "Sub Category", Add pictures and/or videos

How did you & your RT get on with the "WAW", http://www.wildatlanticway.com/home/, I find sometimes that my 2012 RT struggles with poor road surfaces & bumps, particularly when 2 Up.

I usually just "back off" a little bit for the comfort of my Pillion. Having previously managed to damage wheels, I'm apprehensive on poor roads.

I find myself saying "we need a GS", with a 19" Front wheel & longer travel suspension.
