I would like to know from the WD's, how many k's does one "scrub" tyres before they are ready for normal riding. I have put a new Anakees on the rear and it feels a bit "squirmy". Only done +-100k,s. What say you guys??? ???

Tyres have an arrow to stipulate which way they rotate. ok thats fine. If one looks at the tread they are the same front and back. Now my question is why do they rotate differently.(They both go in the same direction).The tread is reversed on one. Does this make sense? :-\

We change the engine oil to make the engine last longer. If we change the AIR in our tyres would they not last longer? ;D

What is the reason for standing up on a bike (BMW or other bikes)? I do sit up over bumps etc, but standing up and riding slow I wobble off. I can sit and do a tight 360. The GSC one has to stand and not touch the seat, WHY???? Is it a BM thing? ;D

Have a look at the schedule and see what has to be done on a 10000km service. 1. Change oil, plus 17 checks, and we end up paying +-R1500.00. ??? What a life for Bm mechanic. We have to have them do it because of the warranty. >:( https://www.r1200gs.info/R1200GS-Maintenance-Schedules.pdf

This is not my GS. How many goodies do you have on the bars?

I am thinking of spraying my (2007)1200gs. I would like somebody to change colours for me, so I can see what it would look like. My bike has yellow tank. The black side panels to be yellow. The grey area stays grey. The front mud guard to be silver plus rear splash guard. If somebody could help...

Went to BMW AG2007 and saw quite a few guys trailer their bikes in. Why have a bike if you are going to trailer it in. What are your views on this practice? Spoke to a guy from JHB and he said this was a favorite of the Harley guys??? :shock:

I am a newbie to this site. I got my 1st bike in 1969 a Honda 50cc. Two years later a CB 175 twin, took a ride from Durban to Bulawayo stayed for a few days and returned with not a problem. Have only recently started riding again in 2005 on a scooter 125cc, just to see if I was not going thru a...
