    Which company you are booking with, jadrolinija or snav? On their web sites you can find contact details. In any case I doubt they will answer your questions but worth to try. May at least first half should not be so busy as season is starting in June. Dubrovnik is ridiculously expensive worth to visit but if you are there for few nights try to get something far outside the area. To travel from split to dubrovnik include crossing Bosnian border and back to Croatia again and there could be long waiting as Bosnia is not in eu and border checks could be sometimes ridiculous. May is good time to go both Italy and Croatia, not to hot according Croatian standards for hot and still not to many tourists.
  3. Fantastic bike, good looking and fantastic on the road, Acceleration is phenomenal it is good in the corners, nod as speed triple but stil fast.
  4. My bike and car survived Eastern European petrol so I am not worried in uk. The worst one is still like cure
  5. Somehow upside down forks looks better
  6. https://www.themotorbikeforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=55966 That right there was some but not on the wheel but on the tyre, it stuck to the tyre like glued.
  7. I used tyre sealant spray or foam or sealant what ever they call them, and worked good, I still use it on car tyres as got screw when tyre was brand new. Still is there after two years and almost 15 000 miles. Some say that will stick and damage wheels, I didn’t see any damage on bike wheels, still need to change that tyre on the car to find out.
  8. Just curiosity as last few days of glorious sunshine I saved the day for 3 bikers with punctured tyres, Stuff that I sometimes takes - cell phone, wallet, pillion
  9. So what repair kit you have with yourself, but at all the times, every single ride. I have beside original Ktm tool tire repair kit with co2 cartridges. That is on every ride as it fits under pillion seat. Longer rides, where I get my tank bag or top box include mini 12 v air compressor and mini tire foam can as well. Obviously it becomes obsession as I had so many tyres punctures.
  10. Just wonder who on this forum filter through the traffic and who don’t. Anywhere town, a roads, motorways. Asking, as often can see motorcyclist patiently waiting behind the cars. I am originally Mediterranean and it is just normal there to squeeze between cars, and that habit I brought here with me. Now, it is not illegal maybe someone will say it’s rude or something. Interested in forum thoughts and opinions. Maybe I should correct my behaviour? As well use of bus lanes during operating hours, for motorcycle is legal so I do use it, sometimes some people wave and make faces, so far I didn’t care.
  11. Maybe save your life but definitely destroys your hearing. I had Leo vince on my previous bike it was extremely loud than I swap it for alrapovic and it was ok. But for any touring I will stay with oem pipe
  12. Meant against all of us, bast*rd auto text
  13. Unfortunately that type of riders or drivers newer mind will cause more strict rules and repression again all of us. Not to mention bad reputation for all motorcyclists. I love to twist the throttle but there is time and place for it.
  14. Always full protection, in my experience more accidents happen during local and town rides. I had two serious at slow speed in town, first without riding gear and end up badly scratched and bruised.Since then always full protection so second one injured only my pride, gear and bike.
  15. The number of times I've frantically pulled on zips whilst riding... Exactly what I was thinking
  16. Is that like a shaft drive? Possibly
  17. Must be some sadomasochist drive
  18. I used this baby before but didn’t enjoy using it as much as tooth brush and rugs ">
  19. So far I found that best to clean is kerosene and tooth brush. After brushing, cotton rugs to dry. Lubing with mobile chain past. But I don’t ride so much, mostly I spend time cleaning it.
  20. And of course now we will have someone with the shaft drive to say something.
