Re: Armour - pressure suit

Thanks for the offer g00ner, but not sure the style is for me. On another note, I've already got the forcefield L2 back protector and was thinking of getting the chest protector as it's only £40 and I can use it on the road bike as well.

Please bear in mind I...

Re: BMW F650GS SE - 4000-mile test in Morocco

Hi Chris, interesting read. I did a very similar trip last October on my XT660Z and wondered if you could draw a comparison between the Ten and the GS as you've used both? Though I really like the Tenere I've got a bike change itch :P. Everything I've considered (F800GS, 800Xc, 1200GS)I wonder if I'...
