  6. I'd be out today if I wasn't stuck offshore, the only thing that stops me getting the Hyperstrada out is snow, sleet and Ice. Although I have been out in minus 5 degrees but the roads were clear and a fairly nice day.
    Had a ride with my daughter as pillion up to rivington barn 1st week in Dec in the pissing down rain, wasn't surprised not to see any other bikes there. ( it was her idea to go for a ride )

  7. Rode to work again this morning, as most days. Only a couple of hundred miles from 50k.
    Oh sorry, this is on a Hypermotard so ignore all that as this is the Multi section...

  9. Only got my 1200S Multi 2 weeks ago today and did not think I would even get the new tyres scrubbed in before serious winter. In fact have ridden 5 times, last time yesterday.

    Long may it continue!

  14. Me and picking up my new 1299 with akros tomorrow for commuting until snow comes.

    Somebody has to give them finish and fasteners feedback right?

  15. Ok so this guy/gal is still riding with the best mud build up I've seen on an 899 - just spotted in London.
    The bit that makes me laugh is the termi logo has all but disappeared under the mud cake.
    Proper winter aesthetic! ImageUploadedByTapatalk1450185031.764674.jpg

  19. Heh. You'll like my 750 Sport ie then - "dirty" doesn't cover it (although dirt does). Commuter bikes have a hard life.

  20. 365 days a year for me on the Multi and noticed how the single side swingarm affects my boots now after being hidden behind GS pots before

    ACF'ed the bike last week so this is what happens when you run the bike up to burn off the excess

    Nice and shiny there after being cleaned up, but normally more like this and worse
