Re: Is There A Reason No One Rides A BMW Sertao?

The G650GS Sertao is a great wee bike...........Mine cost just under £6k new with ABS and heated grips last year which is great value The standard G650GS(£4995 on the road with ABS and heated grips) is around a third of the price of a fully loaded 1200GSA but certainly not a third of the bike..........

Re: Stop and Go Repair Kit

Very quick and easy to use especially on my farm quad...........Don't ream the hole on quadbike tyres as they're quite thin even though they have a big chunky tread.

Also don't pull the mushroom plug tail when you cut it off or sometimes the plug can pop right into the tyre!

Re: Mpg

My BMW 1200GSA twin cam does around 48mpg average. Mrs P's BMW G650GS does around 80mpg. My BMW G650GS Sertao does around 63-68mpg which I think is quite good My Landrover Defender 2.2 110 DCPU does around 19-23mpg farm mileage...........Maybe 24/25 on a long run at 58mph with the wind behind you!!!
