https://www.carmagazine.co.uk/car-news/motoring-issues/illegal-exhaust-modifications/#:~:text=A second car tuning company,rendered pop bang remaps illegal There's been another one done!

I totally agree but the court says they should have done more
-
This is due to a car tuner in the UK getting done for removing emissions related stuff and the courts not being satisfied that they was doing enough to ensure they are for track use only. The court was saying that they should have made sure the cars wasn't driven away from their premises and instead they should have been on the back of a transporter

That's quiet! Get the baffle out
-
Yup they are both right!

I have the R1200RT although it's a bit newer than what you are looking at. Mine is a 2016 model They are heavy to move around but the weight is low down once they are moving they are very well balanced and any weight just dissappears. I have had an fjr1300 before this and although it's lighter that the RT it's top end heavy and a pig at slow speeds

I suggest you get in touch with the insurance ombudsman about it and ask their advice. In the meantime I would ring insurance companies directly for a quote and explain the situation and see what they can do as the online quotes are just automated and may well just refuse to quote

Don't forget the diaphragm's and the needs too! making sure to check them diaphragms for splits and ensure they are seated properly Just to add more anxiety in the mix just removing and cleaning all the bits you want to do won't mess up the balance The balance is just ensuring each carb is drawing the same amount of air Some have air screws that can be adjusted and moving these or the butterfly valve screws will bugger things up a little

I wear earplugs and can hear my wife nagging talking at silly speeds with my cardo packtalk bold Apparently the cardo edge is 30% louder too! -
Bugger! Forgot to delete that! I have removed it! its a waste of time since it "changed"
-
You need to make sure you haven't got a sump baffle that will cause an obstruction too
-
You're worrying over nothing It's road legal with the baffle and illegal without the baffle not that that stops most testers from passing it! If you want to make sure it passes then just leave the baffle in at mot time

Set fire to her car! Job done

I have changed it so nothing gives a negative reputation Sad and confused are just neutral so no plus or minus The rest give a plus 1
-
@FiddlesticksI will take a look as I'm sure I can change what it does to reputation on the forum

If they are dual filament bulb then your low beam might have popped?

New gloves by any chance? This can sometimes be the cause

Google is already there I haven't explored Apple but will look in to it

Jesus! are we going to rename this the American bashing thread Anyway back to the topic! I have found a lot of bike specific forums very useful and the knowledge of information is invaluable! But there seems to be a lack of banter and engagement and there is always that one person that knows everything who you are not allowed to go against!! Oddly they are usually American

They use all forms of social media these days!

Well it's not really! as there is a lot of people who use facebook especially the younger generation who we are trying to attract on to the forum and in to bikes. Remember just because you don't use it or agree doesn't mean we shouldn't have it or use it We are trying to be inclusive and not exclusive here
-
Not sure if anyone uses the facebook login to access the forum but for whatever reason they have restricted the API Basically this is because they can't login to test it so clearly an issue at their end but we get penalised for it As such I have removed the feature as its useless if its not working!

I have had the pilot road 4's 5's and 6 and I must say they are probably the best tyres I have used! Especially in the wet! I had the fjr fully loaded up with a pillion scraping the pegs! I thought that was impressive! Wife not so much I haven't had a tyre as confident inspiring as these are so I find it odd you want to change them through lack of confidence What is it you don't like about them?

Photos fixed for you! Can you not remove the switch to eliminate that?
