1200 DVT Who's Still Riding In December/january In The Uk

7 days a week on the 899 here

took it for a detail/acf on saturday, came up lovely

 

Must be racking up the miles?

 

yeh fair bit mate, think ive done about 2-2.5kish since the end of october

 

Absofuckinglutey & in the future on a mutli-enduro all year round.

 

Back on commuting a few days a week since it came back after warranty work from the local scrambler clothing shop.

 

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 )

 

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...

 

Been out today for about 100miles and again tomorrow. Avoid Ice and heavy rain if its forecast otherwise go for it.

 

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!

 

brilliant :thumbsup:

 

Needs saying, but no.

 

Out most Wednesdays and weekends, but yesterday Surrey boxhill was greasy wet on two up mts just rinse off no salt yet!

 

I ride 60 miles most days, I'm thinking I should have gone for a different bike with you lot telling me it will rust to death

 

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?

 

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!

 

lol love it, exactly how a bikes supposed to look in the winter

 

I'm going to ride my hire bike through the Winter, that's for sure

 

lol

im still laughing at the 899 tbh the absolute state of those wheels even id be embarassed to take it out looking like that

 

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

 

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
