Out for a bit of ride on sunday.

Get well soon Boomer.All the very best.

Gotta be the deflectors.We were in France last year high 30's with no probs,yes it was hot in traffic but once moving it was fine.

Did it fit ok with the heated grips or did you have to make alterations

Perfect fit does not interfer with the heated grips,no alterations needed.

I have the Kaoko fitted and its great,real easy to use and fits in minutes.
But as others have said it will not maintain the same speed as an electronic one but is more than sufficient and a slight twist will either increase speed for going up hill or decrease for going down hill.

I have this one

Anker 2nd Gen Astro E4 13000mAh 2-Port (3A Output) Fast Portable Charger External Battery Power Bank with PowerIQ Technology for iPhone 6 Plus 5S 5C

It is not the jump pack one but had it for a couple of years now and its perfect for phone chargeing,gopro charging,headset charging etc while riding.It has two usb ports so can charge two devices at once.Quality is great and only needs charging once in a while.

Was a wet ride up yesterday and rained right till I headed home at 2pm !
Impressive bike that S1000XR bags of power and me mate was well chuffed.

Welldone ....enjoy.My journey is the opposite of yours ! Ride up to Dalkeith from Newhey (near Rochdale) then back to Newhey.Have a good journey.

Mind you at £14.8K on the road with everything it aint bad !

Very doubtful! 

Haha was waiting for that !

He's a BMW man I am afraid ! Bless him ! Loves a recall or two hahaha

Yep same here.Last year lots were unmanned and card payment only.Use the HGV/motorcycle lane.
I used a credit card most of time and was only charged bike rate.
Last year they didnt do a dart tag type thing for bikes it was only for cars as i would have brought one of these maybe its changed this year worth checking out their website.

Off to Edinburgh on saturday morning as me mates swopping his K1600GT for brand new still in the fecking crate S1000XR ! The GTR wil be parked smack bang right outside the BMW dealership in protest lol !
The heavy weight has got the better of him and the S1000Xr is 10 stone lighter than the K1600gt !

Used it twice last year on the bike and both times perfect no delays and going out last July on the 2.0am train we were the only bike on it !
