Folks, Winter's approaching so time to sort out the heated grips on my second 'S. I have the left hand switch gear fitted with the rocker switch to control the heated grips, but I don't actually have the grips fitted. I could buy the Genuine BMW parts at a wallet busting £140 the pair, but I vaguely...

Sandbar,

Do you have a list showing what you currently sell and the UK retail prices? If you could post up an extract here in this thread, I guess we could advise you on what we'd be interested in setting a group buy up for.

Cheers,

What tyres are you running Gus? People always seem to complain about Metzlers being noisy.

Folks, This month's Bike mag has a freeby DVD givaway, containing footage of loads of bike crashes. The best one is some footage of Randy Mamola high siding his bike on a left hander, keeping hold of the handlebars, going onto the grass and 'skiing' alongside the bike with both feet on the right han...

I use the monthly disposables and have no problems with them.

Dickie,

Sorry about that. We were in the middle of re-organising the web site when Gromit, who owns the URL, had to go up to Edinburgh for the tattoo for a month. Should be sorted come September.

Sorry MV, We've been fart-arsing around with the Boxertrix.com site, with the aim of finally banishing the somewhat misleading "blackbriard" address from the forum, but we were halfway through making the changes when Gromit had to go up to Edinburgh to get a tattoo or something :roll: .

Cheers,
