As much as in England... but Ron doesn't take the S out when it can get wet and dirty.

Ron;
Come to Canada and clean my bikes.........I'll supply the beer!

I work with a guy that rides RT's.....trades them in whenever a new model shows up, but his old one can look cleaner than the new one.

Your 12S looks fantastic!

Cheers

But it was an '09. And I have a bit of sellers remorse so this might be the ticket to fill that spot. But that said, a friend who has a 2012 R12GS Rally with BST wheels, ESA Onlins, full Ackropovic, 5000 miles and more farkles than I can remember has offered it to me for a killer price....what to do? :-$

Sandbar will hand make an HPE exhaust

Contact Nigel at Sandbar. He's got a picture up for the HP2S but they look the same. I just got a set in from him. I'm going to get them HPC coated, then installed and I will try to post some pics.

Ron-

I like your charger carry tray but I have the charger in a convenient location then run the wires overhead to drop down to the bike. That way I don't trip on thing or have to bend over to pick them up. Love to have you clean my bike.
