You so and so.

I got really excited then, till I tried to order some, and they post to France.

But at what cost ?

They say € 0.00 shipping to Germany ... if you buy stuff for € 150.00 or more - anyone interested in Europe?

Well, you seemed to be interested ... we need to buy 5 sets = 30 clamps, that splits nicely in two ...

And yes, it's only interesting for folk on the continent

Seriously though it has different modes and settings.
For example on preload you can adjust for rider, rider and luggage, rider and pillion, rider pillion and luggage.


You can set up each of these in the menu to suit yourself, range of 1-25 I think.

You also have different damping settings that change with riding mode.


.

You also have individual damping settings for front and rear.




Rear is the same.


This is the settings for each modes but User mode 1 and 2 can be set to what you like.




The suspension also automatically adjusts within the modes according to the road conditions, for example the offroad suspension is very supple but if you hit a big bump it stiffens up to stop (or hopefully stop) you bottoming out.

Quite complex but once it is all set up the way you want it is just a button press to change between modes and thus suspension (amongst other setting) I normally ride in the two user modes which I have set up for normal main road riding and the other for narrow country roads.

Looks impressive and useful for quick and easy changes from just rider to two up, motorway or back roads.

Sort of thing I wish I had on my Caterham - you really notice pre-load changes, damper changes and ride height adjustments - except they all have to be done manually - the damper adjustment is quite easy, but the rest . . . set up to suit me on my commute doesn't work for two of us and luggage heading for Italy . . . and that then isn't quite right for a charge up some tiny back road passes over the Alps. Leave it on the touring settings, and I jiggle my teeth around, leaping from bump to bump, solo heading back from work.

Sort of thing some cars have had for a while - never though about it being on bikes.

While your out there could you pick this up for £5k for me please?

 

[James1979]

No worries Reckon I could do some sort of deal for you both.

Drove to Anderlecht last week, two other guys with me as had space, moaning and whining all the way, give me an excuse not to have space, I'll fill it up

 

[MattF]

You should have dropped a rank fart, & given them real reason to complain.

Last night I picked up 8 pieces of 6mm thick strong clear perspex, each around 40" x 16" off FB Marketplace (& I was passing nearby the seller anyway).

Thinking they'd make some nice strong window panes for a project I'm still mulling over exactly how I'm going to do.

The seller threw in some smaller pieces of the same stuff as well - I'm sure I'll find a use for em

 

[Jan-DIY]

Hm.
I need more space here.
Today trying to unload these stuff.

After I have disposed of my breakfast in a direct way at view of this "work of art" and have wiped my mouth ...

... there is no account for taste (even twice ...)

EDIT: I propose this trophy as a consolation prize/badge of shame for the football team of this country when they start their way home tonight ...

How can you not love a dragon sculpture?
