I use the medium cruiser on long trips, it does take a bit of getting use to and does raise the seat height a little. The secret is not to over inflate it. But I am more than happy with it. I have tried the gell insert before on a FJR but found it gets hot when exposed to the sun ie when...

I agree , Ive always had good service from the staff, used their waterproof boots which do remain waterproof. A sad loss to the bikeing high street. I did have my doubts, Ive had more texts and E mails offering discounts over the last few months than before, that with a noticable reduction in...

KAS I am sure that you will enjoy your trip, If like me you avoid the toll roads /motorways just watch your speed in the towns and villages they do attract the local police with the radar gun. As others have said it will be a requirment for reflective material to be displayed on the upper part...

I take my hat off to the riders, the TV pictures don't show the true extent of the mountain sections, last year we rode the sections covered in todays race, some fantastic roads. Well done Bradley hang onto that yellow shirt.

Matt, I use the AA web site to check what was is required before going over the water , When I was touring through France Germany Italy Austria Croaita and Slovinia, the site indicates which countries require what to be fitted ,or carried for each country. I can't quote the law for each of...

Ive biked over the water for the last nine or so years, motorcycles are exempt from the need to fit anything to diflect the headlamp beam such as is required for four wheel vehicles. Ive never had a problem with other drivers, I have been stopped by the police in Italy and France a few times ...

I had mine delivered yesterday, it was easy to fix and looks fine, Ive not had chance to ride the bike yet but my initial thoughts are that it is a nice bit of kit.

Well done, a good trip in a good cause..

I have had three FJR's and ridden them since 2003, during the time I had them I toured Europe each year and never had a problem, the bikes all did what I wanted with ease. I have swopped the FJR for a S10, due to the poor winter and other things which have taken my time I have not had much...

I thought my Visa card was the most expensive plastic on earth, looks like I have been proved wrong again.

Hi Alex, Welcome you will find a wealth of information here, Ive not ridden in Bosnia as we had problems getting insurance to cover that part of the world, when we were on a tour we moved from Italy and landed in Split Croatia, before moving up to Slovina and back to Italy, its a fantastic part...

It looks to me like the problem is the nut holding the bars............

I was up there two years ago, when I went over to the Orkney's its a bit on the bleak side if the weather is poor, and the roads are two way quite narrow, so wish you well with the trip. The hospice's are the only charity that I give to, having my wife pass away in the local one 11 yrs ago...

Good luck with the trip ,its a long way with the roads that are available and a good cause. Donation sent Gerry

If you like whiskey, forget scotch, try an Irish such as Jameson, much smoother goes down a treat, but I don't know if its available on the other side ?? and for beer it has to be a dark one, not chilled to death. Gerry

No thanks, 17 stone and held by an elastic band is not my style . That is if anyone 17 stone can have any style..........

Hi Matt. I think the only thing is to take one out for a decent test ride, I am sure you will like the S10 but we are all different and like or dislike different things. I moved from a FJR 1300 to the S10, I have not had much chance to use it as yet due to the onset of winter ,but have been...

Yes we would all like another 2 to 3 inches. ;D Enjoy the bike loads of fun to be had.

My S10 came with the locks fitted to the boxes, The locks look the same as those that were on my FJR, s If I recall one or two owners had problems with those small screws working loose, a little locktight on the threads did the trick. I never had a problem myself and will be checking the screws...

:PShe should be wearing rubber gloves, would be a shame to get those nails dirty :P
