I do not know where you are from but the Garmin shops are almost everywhere. The BMW navigator is a rebranded Garmin.

(6) Do not get distracted while fastening screws. Thursday evening while at Sandton Motorrad for an event Arno pointed out that my engine guard was loose. I had a bent screw, got it halfway in and decided I'll replace it after the holiday. Guess what happened.

There. The beak protector eventually arrived and after the holiday i had time to install it. Took a bit of effort but I got the holes to align.

While true that if you really go down hard the padding won't stop your bones from shattering, it is also true that for softer offs (which seems to be my most common accident) the impact is reduced. What Ryan (and others) misses is that not everything in life is binary. It would have been moerse...

Right. So after my little mishap this is my story: I stripped my m03r for PPS mostly due to the fact that one of their employees tried move my bike without my permission, in fact against my instructions.
