Well it looks like my 2 bike garage since 2007 is now reducing, lack of use last 3 years due to that which we do not mention. |

Zitat von Dave H im Beitrag #1 I would try selling the 1200ST on UKGSer. I think its £12 per year to join and with a very large and active buy/sell sub-forum you're quite likely to get a better price than on the 'bay. If you're getting a factory-order 1250 go for the basic model with only those upgrades that you really want. Personally I love my ESA but yes its expensive and another thing to go wrong later. |

Looks like I will take the advice for now and keep the RS, maybe convert this to the 'keeper' and next year have a two bike garage?

Zitat von Dave H im Beitrag #6 If you bought the items from a dealer they might swap you for items that work on your RS. The spark plugs I had on hand for our R1200RSs do not work for the R1250RS. I returned them at the parts desk and bought plugs for the R1250RSs.

Zitat von Dave H im Beitrag #1 How did you get away with not using the keyless ignition? Have you found a place to insert the key into it? 2020 R1250RS, 2018 Ducati 939 Supersport, 2018 Ducati Monster 821, 1967 Ducati 250 mk3. All PCP free. |

Zitat von Dave H im Beitrag #10 Black is always a good color choice for a bike. The silver spoilers look easy to remove and you should be able to sell them. I like the looks of the stainless steel spoilers but the right one gets in the way when checking the oil and the left one needs to be removed to change the oil filter. Lee |

Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #14 Agreed - though I'm quick to point out the social responsibility of keeping a black bike clean.... Strikes me -the choice of colors and appearance of our bikes are really for the enjoyment of others. Unless you're one of those guys who buys the bike for his living room as a piece of art, you're going to be riding it, and you know, when one is in the saddle, the color doesn't make that much of a difference. (Okay, I know, black saddles on hot desert days does make me aware of color.) But, I can think of a bunch of track days on borrowed or rented bikes for which I could not remember the color of the bike if my life depended on it. I usually choose the color of my bike based on how it looks after a day of grimy riding, what my wife thinks of the color, and whether the color might affect resale value. (Right now, that lupin blue still looks good.) “A good man always knows his limitations.” |
