Re: Has anyone ridden the R1200ST?

I was in the dealers having the Rockster serviced the other day, and when I returned the 650 Dakar loan bike there was a R1200ST demo out the front. I still love the Rockster after almost a year and 10,000Km--ok, that isn't much , but half of it has been done in the past couple of months as I commu...

There are actually three seats. 780mm, 800mm and 820mm. The Roadster comes with the 800mm while the Rock come with the 820mm. The 780mm seat is only sold as a spare part. It appears that the tall rider seat only comes in black. The parts page below shows the seats if you select "R1150R" t...

thoughts about new ST

Last Saturday at the open house at our local dealer I test rode the new ST. I really loved it. :D It just felt so right to me. Does any of you test rode one? What are your impressions? I am in no way into replacing my Rockster, but can replace it with the other bike I have. First when I looked at it...

Oil coming out from the oil plug

Hey guys, Yesterday I checked the oil, it was just below the middle of that window and added just a little bit of oil (bike has 1,400 miles on it) and today when I was riding it to work the oil was leaking through the plug. Actually even before adding the oil I noticed that my oil plug was kinda wet...

Re: Don't worry, Matt & Ofrogg...

I wouldn't worry about it, Matt... Ofrogg... I think GJBushman put it best in the other "Renegade" thread - the guy's motives were never about having any sort of discussion, and he didn't want any "help" as he said he did in his original thread. I hate to say he was "trolli...

Re: Sadly it’s goodbye from me …

Events have overtaken me and I have decided to retire from biking for the foreseeable future. :smt090 :smt022 It’s a long storey but we all know we’re playing the numbers game, especially when commuting. I’m sick of seeing car drivers driving down the road reading the paper or ...

Sorry, can't help you with the half-helmets because I only wear full-face ones.
Thanks guys, I may just go with the full size helmet after all.
