At the minute I am far too busy trying to look after my father and mother in law who aren't in a good way, live a life and turn up for work! Some people have noticed that I have been very quiet on the forum and it's because of this! I haven't even turned my pc on in months and have only been using my phone which is no good for doing what you want. Unfortunately sometimes things get in the way beyond our control and the forum takes a back step in this situation.

I totally agree but the court says they should have done more
-
This is due to a car tuner in the UK getting done for removing emissions related stuff and the courts not being satisfied that they was doing enough to ensure they are for track use only. The court was saying that they should have made sure the cars wasn't driven away from their premises and instead they should have been on the back of a transporter

Yup they are both right!

I have the R1200RT although it's a bit newer than what you are looking at. Mine is a 2016 model They are heavy to move around but the weight is low down once they are moving they are very well balanced and any weight just dissappears. I have had an fjr1300 before this and although it's lighter that the RT it's top end heavy and a pig at slow speeds

I suggest you get in touch with the insurance ombudsman about it and ask their advice. In the meantime I would ring insurance companies directly for a quote and explain the situation and see what they can do as the online quotes are just automated and may well just refuse to quote

Don't forget the diaphragm's and the needs too! making sure to check them diaphragms for splits and ensure they are seated properly Just to add more anxiety in the mix just removing and cleaning all the bits you want to do won't mess up the balance The balance is just ensuring each carb is drawing the same amount of air Some have air screws that can be adjusted and moving these or the butterfly valve screws will bugger things up a little
