Joining the gang

Post by daveperce »

Hello everyone. I'm taking delivery of my '16 1200RT LE (switching over from a few decades of Jap in-line 4's) this week here in the UK. Planning a short, 3 week European tour in Sept. My bike does not have the ff sat nav nor does it have the radio (but I do have a Sena fitted in my helmet so don't need either of the former as I can use Waze and my phone). Aside from these two items, I'd be keen to learn what 'must have' after market accessories are recommended by this group....

Welcome aboard. I did much the same some 3 years ago and it took me a good couple of months to get used to what is a very different machine.

What part of the country are you in?
