We can help with a carbon fibre hugger and a carbon fibre beak, but it does depend on whether you really are just looking for the cheapest. On the other hand the quality may be relevant!

In all fairness there are others.

Best kit

I have only just got my bike to and after a lot of research I have bought the following, which looks ace and does the job.

REYNO OIL COOLER GRILL £43.00 IT MAY NOT BE THE CHEAPEST BUT IS SO WELL MADE YOU DONT MIND PAYING FOR IT.

EXTENDA FENDA FROM PYRAMID £17.50 INC P&P. ITS EASY TO FIT AND LOOKS OK (£15 CHEAPER THAN WUNDERLIK).

CARBON HUGGER FROM SANDBAR £165 INC P&P LOOKS GORGEOUS WEIGHS NOTHING AND IVE BEEN OUT IN THE RAIN WITH NO MUD OR SPRAY ON THE BACK OF THE LEGS.(£80 CHEAPER THAN WUNDERLIK £35 LESS THAN MOTORRAD CONCEPTS.

PANNIER LINERS FROM MAINEVENT £70 INSTEAD OF £130 AND THEY ARE WELL MADE BUT AS YET UN TESTED.

As for BMW clothing I looked at their range and found it very very expensive for what you got. I bought BELSTAFF stuff which I have used for years and has never let me down. I think you can still get it but they are making the company inton a fashion brand the bastards. My mates go off roading and they swear that hien gerrick (spelt wrong) is the best you can get for the money.

Bits For 1200

Allroad

Go to the top of the page and click on the Nippy Norman Logo and browse away at the 1200 GS section.

Good waterproof clothing can be bought from Hein Gericke in Boucher road..........ask for Davy and look at the Tuareg suits and also the Voyager. Have both and they are excellent (apart from Tuareg front bottom pockets on jacket. Even they, like some of the BMW suit pockets are not waterproof. But that can be overcome quite easily.

And they are a darn sight cheaper.

KTM Duke mirrors.

Mike, are the KTM mirrors a direct bolt in replacement - in other words are the threads the same as the stock BMW mirrors?

How do you like them?

You need an adapter, the Duke mirrors have 8mm left thread, BMW 10mm with no thread.
