I’ll bite.

Sad to see the old forum collapse. Again.

Lots of handy chats lost into the ether.

This Grumpy Old Man, with a handful of lovely grandchildren, still has enough spark to run his RS round the local track occasionally.

Even at 5 degrees a few days ago. Hopefully one (draft) pro pic attached.

Looking forward to a long delayed Euro trip in May.

   

Jeepers.

Failed miserably with the un-user-friendly photo attachment an had to edit the mess.

Did I mention I’m a Grumpy Old Man?

And as you know I am the Grumpy Goat ... so we're a right pair.

Welcome all R1200RSForum orphans to this Forum Community, where I expect to be running the website and this Forum Community for a while yet, God willing.

I deleted the 2 extra "murals" and edited the remaining one down to the preferred 800 to 1000 pixel width to avoid side scrolling. I also took the opportunity to lighten the shadows a bit do that we can see a bit of your face, and downsizing the filesize from 500 kB to about 140 kB.

Here are some tips for resizing the photos. If using your phone, some users also find uploading photos from Tapatalk to be easier.

Another lost soul from the UK here.

I gave my 2015 a deep clean yesterday, removing the exhaust and cleaning around the engine getting ACF 50 into all the cubby holes. The bike is holding up well. I also discovered that as well as my starboard MA Moto cylinder head cover being grounded at Croft circuit last year I also scraped the rhs lower fairing plate over 'Sunny Out' bend. If you don't hit a bump and the suspension is jacked right up the main stand or footpads don't have to ground out.

I've been riding continuously for approaching 52 years with a fair few bikes and my Grey/Black RS is my most definite favourite. I love it and can't find anything I'd rather have. There's a few bikes I'd like alongside it but funds don't run to that.

An RS forum without pics of that "shade tree mechanic" windscreen just wouldn't be right....

I thought I’d cracked the photo business after discovering an App called “Image Size”.

But failed miserably to load 2 shrunken pictures so abandoned another thread attempt.

I also have the "Image Size" app for my iPhone. Works well.

If after trying you are still struggling, send them to me and I will be pleased to assist.
