I just fasten the Helmet on using the strap. It's always enough. No one is going to risk stealing your helmet because second hand helmets are worth buttons.

Picked this up yesterday:
One of the last K1300S. They're not making any more. It's one of the greatest ever sport touring bikes. Couldn't resist. I'll get 600 miles knocked off and the first service then it's off to its permanent residence on the continent.

Looks a big old beast. Good for those euro schleps you do
I've cracked about 1300 miles on the CRF on my commute this summer (20 miles round). Epic tool for the job, 85mpg, comfy, reliable. My only gripe is the 'box isnt the best

I love those BMW sports tourers.
I’ve got a new edition ! Worr lass surprised me and kindly bought a MT07 ABS MOTO-CAGE for my birthday !!!
Please excuse the huge chicken strip, I’m not that much of a fanny, honest ! (6 miles on the clocks now)
That was the morning i picked it up- totally standard - no accessories - just my personal plate.
And an hour later - (50 miles on the clocks now)
Two hours later-
Four hours later
Inaugural Scottish RYR Pilot biker union meeting hosted in the borders ! ( 200 miles on the clocks!!)
8hrs later back to the bike storage box- with about 350miles on it !
The bike collection is slowly growing, missing from the motorised section is this one-
Just finishing up a bit of rebuild down the lockup-
Ten points for naming the three cars featured in this shot
Bike to the main event -
Two months later the MotoCage kit finally turned up -
Its a bit marmite but i f@#king love it, such a hoot to ride.
I know everyone always proclaims this but pictures really don’t do justice. Neither do videos. Heres some really bad proof -

I want to like the MT and i do .... as long as i'm sat on it and not trying to push it around from the seat - the pegs are nicely located at ankle bone placement if you have shorter legs.

I don’t think it’s possible to go much over 100 leptons with the MT07, the engine is willing but my sail like body shape is reluctant. But when i have attempted it the force is really something to be reckoned with !
