Went out for a ride on gs with my buikt up boots on that cost a small fortune and success !!! Felt 100% better. Didnt feel i had to weigh up the ground at every stoo etc... just got on with it. Rained constantly but my Dainese jacket and 2nd hand Dainese trousers kept me bone dry got a Shoei Neotec 3 helmet which is definitely better than the 2. Was hard to see though. Had my visor up most of the time. Only other bikes we saw was a group of 4 GS's. I got a cheery big wave off all of them. Seems GS riders only wave at other GS riders then. I spent the whole time not indicating because 1. I dont have to its a BMW and 2. WTAF !!! Who designed these indicator switches a complete psycho did. You meant 1. It's a bmw it will burst in to flames if you do shit like indicate. Glad you enjoyed your ride 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ll appreciate them on longer rides with bulky gloves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clive Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Put battery on the scoot, started 1st jab of the button, tyres about 5lb down, front and back...pumped them up. Sprayed the CAR wiper mechanicals, think I will have to remove the mechanism and give it a proper clean and grease the pivots. Think a mouse/rat/squirrel has been gnawing on a bit of the wiring under the bonnet, taped the bare wires up, been a busy morning so far. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
