Another GTR moved on.

Glad you're still enjoying it. I always found my GS a bit fiddly when cleaning it. I was always rapping my knuckles on the engine bars and other areas when I was trying to get in to all the nooks and crannies. No longer a problem with the K1600

Regarding cleaning.
Before Christmas I treated myself to a works hydroshot.
It's not as powerful as the ones used on cars at car washes  but I found it ideal for the bike and the bonus for me as I live in an upstairs flat is around 4/5 buckets of water it's done 👍 the only extras I purchased was another battery to make sure I completed the wash .
For anybody with the same problem as me a water supply to outside Around £100 not so dear .

Well three months in to the ownership and some things in the bike world never change.
Aftermarket sat-nav mount - Check [ BMW one fouls a large tank bag ]
Aftermarket screen - Check [ BMW one is fine at normal road speeds, a bit larger needed for motorway cruising ]
Aftermarket rear hugger fitted - Check [ Back of bike filthy without one ]

Still making me grin when I ride it, not so much when I clean it, I forgot how dirty unfaired bikes could get.

Happy New Year to you all.

Is that a typo Steve?.
You said Asif cleaned it 🤔 did you mean 1 of his minions 👍

My apologies, yes he probably pays one of the local kids a few bob to give it a good wash.
