Are pictures of naked blokes allowed on this site

haha, you mean that bruise in my leg. What ever, i can't take it off myself anymore. I don't mind if someone mods it off.

Tony, great to hear that it propably wouldn't take ages. I will call you, when i'm in there.

I noticed yesterday, that right fork seal leaks oil in my MM.
I was today at local service and they ordered new seals. I was hoping to drive it to Spain this week, but looks like it would not happen. I don't have received yet under seat gas tank either, which was posted over week ago from germany. I just hate waiting...

kriega

hi bmconvert
the kriega gear is great ,i have a few things myself ,problems i have found using it . us20 with the us 10 piggy back ,when it rains it all stays dry +++,trouble is when you want to take clean gear out the wet bag you unroll the end covered in do do and your hands are all mucked up where you just unrolled it ,so its off to wash hands and then try not to let the clothes touch the sides when pulling out .. i phoned kriega for a outside cover to cover the lot and the answer was ,it has a waterproof liner to keep it dry .so they don't make one ,durrrr . the bag when it drys is a right mess being black . so now have a oxford cover to put over .

When the bike was delivered there were 2 indentations on either side and a white mark, like a sticking plaster had been removed, on the top. They, BMW, promised me a replacement but the carbon was unavailable until now. Couldn't keep the old piece I'm afraid

eka,
Glad youre ok that could have been alot worse. At least you have a MM to play with!! Nice stable if I do so say myself.

I have been thinking about it. It's so small things which are fatal. I was just about to pass one car. If that one behind me would hit just a little later, it would have pushed me under it.

Usually i drive there faster than cars, but there was a cop in park at previous junction and i took it easy. Then there was so dark in tunnel as it's very dirty from soot etc. Then in HP2 Sport you can't see from those useless mirrors behind you, unless you rise your hand and look under shoulder. Then it was afternoon, when the light is brightest from the end of tunnel. Then there was that liquid, which i didn't knew what it might be (water, diesel, oil...) and slowed down. Then there was that car without safety cap and i didn't notice it from those useless mirrors. Then you can see from video, that i have already slowed down a lot, before car hit brakes. I think the driver get blind from light and didn't notice me in time. What ever, but could have ended a lot worse.

Well, it will stay in my occiput, but i'm not gonna grief this. I'm fine and the bike will be.

Actually they called last week, that there is missing one piece from frame. I don't know what that could be, as frame look ok. Anyhow i just get to spain with my megamoto. I don't have so much worry and hurry about that as i have to get soon back to finland.

 

[pistonbrokescooby]

bike frame

hi eka
part of the frame missing ,the hp2 frame is very minimal anyway.can't be much missing can there eh ... hey lets hope they sort it out quick for you .the mega moto must be good ,part ex my ktm sm950 towards the hp2,really wish i could keep it as well ,but have a few others and the lack of room , hey best wishes pb

 

[Eka]

Yes, i was wondering later, what they referred. Maybe they ment subframe. It was damaged at least as seen in pictures. Anyhow i sent today that video of accident to my insurance company. In my logic the one who crash in rear is always paying from his insurance. I couldn't done it before as i didn't get through their site then and now i just had possibility to call as i arrived here in spain. I had other things more important as this anyway, but things hopefully is clearing out.
