    Weird battery behaviour

    The battery in my bike is 3 years old.  For the last 3 months it has been on my Optimate charger whenever I'm not riding it - and I do at least 80km every day. The charger has made no difference to the behavior of the battery, which is as follows: When the bike is in neutral, it starts first...

    Question: F800GS crashbars - sorted thx

    My 800GS doesn't have crashbars because I never had the cash to buy them. But then, as luck would have it, a recent meeting with Mother Earth cost me R12,000 in damages (ok my insurance covered it but still). Conclusion:  it's cheaper to fit crashbars than not. So here's my question:  which...
