Hi boys and girls I finally got round to publishing a video on my site about the first 1000 miles. Let me know what you think! Sorry about the face and the monotone! Entirely the freezing weathers fault making it difficult to speak! Got a riding modes, 1299 v 1299S and a Diavel one to go up when I get a chance to finish. http://thatsbelter.com/
It's just behind me although i've graded the footage so the panels are hanging in darkness. I'm making a video on the Suzuki soon though not to fear!
Do you have a Dictaphone or voice record on your phone? When you pick it up ask the service manager what you should wash it with, clean chain, brakes etc. Record their response. Friends sprocket and engine is corroded before 500 miles. BMW blamed him and what he used, refused warranty claim. He had the original conversation on a gopro, pictures of sdoc and whatever else they told him to use with receipts. Took a loud conversation in front of potential customers before they backed down. I think we are entering the age of if you don't clean your new bike with our carefully selected partners products we will refuse warranty claims for corrosion.
MEE OWW , keep it coming boys you know what the best superbike out ther is all give u a clue it aint red, blue or green , the bm leads the others follow, always has always will. my mate had a panni he washed it they had to give him new discs lol
tbh discos last year a had s1000rr after first service they cleaned it and marked all the swingarm/frame my mate says its to much concentration in the cleaner they used took a bit of scrubbing to get off,
Mate has only just calmed down. He wasn't best pleased at having to fork out for sdoc in the first place. Then being told they wouldn't sort engine. He nearly blew his lid. Imagine a future when you pick up a bike of any make and the salesman says heres your 10% off voucher for autoglym shampoo. Don't use anything else to wash it or we won't fix manufacturing defects. Balls to that. Besides all that enjoy your new bike and the heated grips [emoji41]
Thanks! I 'm trying to get them edited and up around day job. Next 1299 one will be 'riding modes' video then 'suspension' then 'should I buy the S or the base? '. I have a Diavel on loan at minute as my 1299 tank is away getting painted so next video will most likely be a little review of that. Reviewed some of my new gear too which will try to get up tomorrow or Saturday. Shameless plug you can subscribe at the bottom of the site and you'll get an email when new stuff goes up.
Not at all mate. Whilst I like what he does and more so the kick up the arse he's given online bike media, I can't ever see my self moto-vlogging if that's what it's called? All I want to do is try and answer some of the questions I went looking for before I bought my bikes such as 675R, 899, 1299 etc. I could find videos but never answers or thoughts from real world use.
