So this summer, my friends and I will going on a 7 hr trip. While I would be thrilled to have the comfort and smooth ride of my '66 BMW R50/2, I don't want to put the old girl through the torture. So I need some advice on making my 04 RSV1000R a little more comfortable for the ride. Has...

ok lads,how does the t hold up to wet weather??????????????is it hard on them or the quality very good?

hi again, I'm having a problem that now happened 3 times after some hard riding with brights on. slowed down and switched off bike, when trying to start again after couple of minutes, I seem to drain the battery as starter engages and then resets the the settings on the clock, rev counter...

I made the mistake of sitting on a ktm rc8 which was like an armchair.. well at least a vfr750. Got me thinking whether raising the bars and a little more leg room would be possible on the rsv. I know falco bars can be fitted, anybody done this? Does it make enough difference to be worthwhile...

Ok..so I just bought a 04 Mille and as soon as I got the bike home I was so excited to ride it, I just unloaded it and took it for an illegal(no licence) spin for about 10 miles. I later found out that there was no oil in the bike!:eek: How much damage would this most likely cause to the bike...

Stuck in the house tonight so put this together http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QbIExsLfls

I had my local dealers demo out for a whole morning. I had been a bit concerned about the seat height, but the bike is very narrow so getting my feet down was no problem. You don't realise how small the bike is until you sit on it. It churns over a good few times on the starter before it fires...

dont know why but since i bought my RSVR FACTORY ( before this always had inline 4s) i seem to be able to corner faster than i did before, dont know why but its true :dunno

Since this hot weather I have seen many F*cking Idiots riding in London with ONLY Shorts and FlipFlops! How stupid can some people be, if they come off it's road rash time. I think there should be a law to say you must cover exposed flesh :dunno

Guys I need your help (as usual), There was a bad accident outsise our camp the other night where a rider was sadly killed. Initial reports look like he came out of a 60 into a 30 without slowing down where he met a sharp left and lost control hitting a telegraph pole. No other vehicles were...

If you cannot afford the latest leathers, glove's, boots and lid and have to settle for a complete riding ensemble for less than £600 does it make you a bad rider ? I get a little narked off at the various mags that suggest if you dont buy the latest Dianese Unobtanium leathers etc etc you...

Coming back to bikes after 20yrs decided to buy myself a Millie, middle age madness. Anway got up early this morning riding around east London notice temperature gauge up to 91 in slow speeds and 82 when your moving along a bit faster whats the normal running temperature. One more question I...

As it says on the tin. Is it normal or am I a freak? I don;t remember getting them when I had my SV1000S (i miss her..... until i ride mollie)

Okay alot has already been said about poor riding standards but I was the victum of these poor standards yesterday. We were out in the Thetford Forest area, 6 of us in a group. I had just swapped bikes with my mate RSV- ZX7R, we were riding in single file through at a good pace when coming...
