That's interesting Vince, I had been led to believe that ROSPA gold was higher than IAM. The problem that I have in honesty, such as this weekend I was out on a long'ish trip. Keeping to the speed limits in towns and villages is fine, but on motorways I ride in the mid to high 80's (real speeds, no...

Ah, okay. I bought my 12r off a David Bee. I Observe for both IAM and RoSPA and, in my area for sure the IAM has the better set up. As for skill level it's down to how good your Observers are and how much time and miles you put in. IAM F1rst pass = RoSPA Gold. IAM Masters = somewhat higher (real ded...

I'm worried by a theme in the replies to the photo. All this talk of extra lights, Hi-viz etc. For sure the rider would stand out a lot better with some Hi Viz or lights but the safest thing to do would be to take in the warnings signs. Use them to think "why, what if?" Of course I don't k...

Yeah, I was the same about the S1000r. Resisted the temptation to ride it as my funds don't currently stretch to one comfortably.

I've put 91,000 of the 96,000 on my 2007 RT12 and have just bought a 16,000 12r of the same year.

Be prepared to hand over the deposit if you ride the 12r :D

I rode my "new to me" R12r to CW's and back a round trip of 3 hours the way I go just to get some handlebar mounting bolts so I could remove the risers fitted by previous owner. Fitted the front mudgauard extender and a loud horn already. Also ordered a new seat and Puig sports screen. New...

There's an R12r now sitting next to my R12RT in the garage. I bought 2007 model same as my RT12 as the wheels etc will swap over (I have a spare set of wheels). 80,000 miles less than my RT so it's like new. Mucho fun, I'm keeping her naked, I have the RT if I want to keep out of the rain and wind o...

I think you'll get some concession on the price of a new tyre but that one doesn't look to have a great deal left in it anyway IMO?

Z8's squared off to early for my liking.
