Great shot of a BMW K1200S taking a corner at Laguna Seca just hard enough to show off a recently installed SW-Motech Centerstand. The same bike is shown outfitted with a Bags-Connection Daypack II quick-lock tankbag, which also works perfectly on the KTM Super Duke 990 during a trip to the Grand Canyon. Thanks to Stewart Hsu for sharing these pics!

Givi Windscreen NOT Turkey-Proof...

I was out riding the other day when a wild turkey jumped off the side of the road and into my windscreen. The good news is the turkey - although stunned momentarily - flew off on her own, and I ordered a new MRA screen from you guys.

In August of 2008, BMW changed their gascap design from a "snap" fit to a design which uses screws. BMW bikes with screwless gascaps produced before this date can use the original TRT.00.475.123 and TRT.00.475.124 tankrings. Bikes produced after must use a different, in-production design.
