I've seen some used BMW heated grips on Ebay.

The rack top is 9.5" long and 12.375" wide.

I have owned a Honda Africa Twin DCT now for 6 years. There are so many assumption about automatic motorcycles and many are not true. You have to live with one for a while to really understand the pro's and con's of different automatics. The Honda DCT is a dual clutch system and is very...

I agree the switchgear is most suspect as far as water intrusion. I use Corrosion X on any electronics and electrical connections that may get wet. The great thing about this stuff is that it not only protects from corrosion it creates a thin film layer over the surface of connections and...

Here is a tank on Ebay located in Germany. It is expensive...

It is not a true automatic - It is basically a standard type of transmission and clutch though it has a computer controlled shifting and clutch mechanism. The reviews have been somewhat mixed - the Honda DCT has been much better received by reviewers. I'm sure the BMW system will improve over...

I can get this to you when I get home on Monday or Tuesday.

I'm guessing it's an hour meter

If you have removed the top layer of chrome - not much you can do about it other than getting the header pipe replated which usually requires the plater to remove all the plating and reapply the copper and chrome. There used to be a product specifically made to remove the blue from header pipes...

When an exhaust header is chromed a layer of copper is put on first. On header pipes usually this copper layer is thicker than on simple chromed parts that are not subjected to heat. The heavier layer of copper helps prevent the header pipes from turning dark blue from heat as the copper...

Sounds like a typical problem when the fuel injectors and lines sit over a hot engine and vapor forms in the lines etc. Next time when you go to start the bike when hot - bump the starter button for a fraction of a second and wait a couple of seconds before starting - this should cause the fuel...

I actually prefer the lower mirrors. They have nice wide angle view and I can see all the way behind me.

Those are the same mirrors that are for sale on Ebay for about $20.00 US. I have as et - they are great.
