XTreme Posted July 27, 2023 Author Share Posted July 27, 2023 Just renewed the bike insurance for another year......€360. Yes......insurance is very expensive here. That's Fully Comp including full European breakdown cover, Legal, Health etc. I could get it a bit cheaper with Linea Directa but I don't trust them one bit. It'll be cheap first year then rip you off forever. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yen_powell Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Popped to Suffolk in my lunch hour and collected some Barkbuster handguards for my XT. Just finished putting them on. I have left the old inner handguard brackets on for now in case I want to switch back at any point. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
