Hello and I think I am in a position to write this as on Saturday I ordered my 1st Crossrunner for picking up early March.
I have be a big lover of the VFR's and V4s and have been riding a well looked after 1987 VFR750 FH in white for the last 11 years which has served me very well including long trips around Europe during 9 of the 11 years.
She has now gone to a forever retirement home (my brother) and happy she will be looked after.
I have been looking to upgrade for a few months now and trying our various bikes including Ducati Hyperstrada, Triumph Tigers 800 & 1050 and BMW K12/300R.
In the end it was between the BMW K1300R (great bike !) and the Crossrunner. But saw a gread deal on a 2014 White Crossrunner with only 1780 miles on the clock and bit the bullet (an price was a lot cheaper than the K1300's looking at).
So Im sure I will be welcomed and look forward to enjoying this site and riding.
Off course when buying new bike I will have loads of questions so will appreciate all help you can give me and eventually I will do same.
Current questions are :
1) any recommendations on what rear hugger to buy?
2) Any recommendation on what front fender/mudguard extender to buy and can I fit without putting holes in fender.
3) Any recommendations on hard panners to buy - Currently has Givi top box rack but no boxes.
4) Does anyone know the part number for Givi tank lock disk for 2014 bike? - seems cheeper to buy tank bag and lock separate - I have bagster tank bags at present on old VFR but think tank lock is way to go??
Thanks
Mike
