  1. It's more than likely coming from the air box The crank case breather goes into the air box then will drain out to that pipe Pretty normal and with higher mileage you will get more pressure in the crank case which will push a bit more oil out Might be worth stripping and cleaning the air box

    Teach him the difference between people who are happy for him and people who don't like it Then for that latter teach him how to show them the bird The only thing I will say is lose the harness! If the inevitable does happen then you don't want to be tied together Get a headset so you are in communication
  3. Simply put you need to take it from the battery as any other wiring may not be big enough to take the load and could pop a fuse
  4. I have had LED before just not on this bike They have improved a lot in recent years The issue used to be that the "filament" was in the wrong position on LED's which caused stray lighting but that has now been resolved by positioning it the same as what a Halogen bulb would be so the beam pattern is exactly the same my advice is if you want more light then go for it just do not buy cheap
  5. I went out the other day and was overtaken by "the fast boys" It was a dangerous overtake then they continued to overtake approaching bends and with oncoming cars! Few miles down the road in the bendy stuff I caught them up and overtook them! As my mate always says! You can look as though you're fast if you ride dangerously enough! I'm guessing it was their first ride since last year
  6. Over the weekend I fitted some LED bulbs! Lots of parts to remove to get the headlight off and bloody hard work getting everything inside the headlight! I must say the way the bmw fairing fits is a bloody work of art!
  7. I got a full PPF kit for the RT its not cheap but its very good stuff and extremely tough Its also hard to see when fitted they also sell them in separate parts if needed https://tonyjamesdesigns.com/ Drop them a message and see what they say
  8. Keep it! Noise emissions are only going to be tightened up and you may well need it for MOT time
  9. This is exactly how I do them! it works
  10. Not sure where you got that from It's general chat so talk about what you like in here Do you have to swim to it? Get a lift? or row?
  11. This! I have had a tub for the last 20 years! still half full as you don't need a lot and do my gear 2 or 3 times a year https://www.amazon.co.uk/Renapur-Leather-Balsam
  12. It only gets worse!
  13. With speakers? Do it! Best thing I ever did! just remember to turn the volumes down on everything before trying custom plugs! it will hurt your ears at half volume and most people have them set at max Mine is set to minimum with the custom plugs

    If you are thinking of replacing it rather than spending £1800 on suspension then you have the answer there! Get some test rides in and that will probably make your mind up
