Same thing happened to me when I crashed. The GPS flew out of the mount never to be found. Despite my phone being in my pocket, survived and still works! Sent from my XT1064 using Tapatalk

Cray is a great guy, really knows his bikes, and owns a bunch too. He's always happily answered my questions even though I didn't get either of my BMW's from him. Sent from my XT1064 using Tapatalk

I don't see myself doing any touring in the next while; I'm having a hard enough time convincing the family that I'll be back riding again after I'm recovered. If/when that happens I'll just trade up to something more suited to it. Sent from my XT1064 using Tapatalk

Thanks for the input; I guess I got the model number wrong, I'm not looking for the automatic one. I'll mostly be using it to commute 15 minutes to work in nice weather. I like the built in storage, enough room for a lunch bag and a notebook. I think it will be a while before I work up to long...

Does anyone have any personal experience with the NC700S? I'm starting to look for replacements for my wrecked F800st, and this one seems to check all the boxes. Any thoughts on reliability, and parts availability. It looks like it was only sold here in 2012. Sent from my XT1064 using Tapatalk

Merry Christmas everyone... I hope I find 2 wheels under the tree! Sent from my XT1064 using Tapatalk

I bought a pair of Icon 29er gloves in the summer, and they held up quite well in my accident. The left one got really scuffed up, but stayed intact, and protected my hands. I ended up with a dislocated wrist, but I doubt any glove would have prevented that. Sent from my XT1064 using Tapatalk

Re: help! 2008 BMW F800S repairs.. I've kind of skimmed over the replies so I apologize if this info has been duplicated. There's a guy on the F800 forum near Niagara Falls that is parting out a couple of ST's which have a lot of common parts with the S. http://f800riders.org Also Ron at...

Always go with what fits your head the best, and more money doesn't necessarily mean a safer helmet. Every time I take on the task of getting a new helmet, I always end up coming home with an HJC. I have literally tried on every full face helmet in my size at GP and Royal, plus other stores...

My wife is looking I'm that now although if anyone has a personal recommendation that would very helpful. Sent from my XT1064 using Tapatalk

Thank you everyone for your kind words. I did break my tibia and fibula along with 1 bone in my ankle and radial plate in my left arm. I've had surgery to place a 35cm long "nail" in my leg. I also got an air cast for my leg, and sling for my arm. I was able to take a single step with a walker...

Thanks man! I will likely downsize for a year or so but at least I'll have an excuse to hit up the bike shows the winter! Sent from my XT1064 using Tapatalk

I don't think I clipped the bars just took flight. Sent from my XT1064 using Tapatalk

I was headed eastbound, the southbound pickup driver did stop, but then accelerated hard to get across. The driver was charged. The speed limit is 80kmh, and I was doing between 80 & 85. Sent from my XT1064 using Tapatalk

I've been riding for 18 years, and never even had a bump. I was returning from a trip up and down Hockley Valley Rd Saturday afternoon. Riding through Loretto on a clear stretch of road. When a woman who was stopped at a sign, waiting to cross the road gunned it. I tried swirving right to go...
