With the change in time, I realized that I can't really see too well in the dark on the way home from work. I wanted to mount some auxiliary lights. Has anyone found some good brackets? Ideally I would like to mount them up high, like maybe off the mirror mount, but I can't seem to find anything like that for our bike.

Hi folks, Once again I'm asking for advice -- this time on fellow GT riders on the subject of air filter/spark plug replacement/longevity/what have you. I'm approaching 12K miles, btw, and am not as handy as most of you. Thanks as always.

My 2019 F800 GT (TBW) has developed a new, and seems, repeatable fault When I start it it will fire, run for maybe 10 seconds and then just stop. It'll restart straight away and then run albeit it seems to hunt a bit but that's a bit subjective. No codes are showing anywhere via MotoScan Battery maybe 20 months old shows 13.3v engine off and a touch over 14v engine running all (sensible) revs I'm not sure if it's relevant, but MotoScan was showing 1C00 yesterday which I cleared and it...

I know that there will be a few of you lot in the states and other areas that are pleased to finally see these and as such they are available with global shipping. Anyone who has the GT variant already fitted will tell you they're well worth the money and... F800S / ST Mirror Extension Kit

We had a couple of threads recently with forum members struggling to code new TPMS sensors to their bike following a wheel change. My rear sensor has failed so I've documented how to code a new sensor using the learn function in MotoScan app just in case it may be of help to anybody in the future. After you have started MotoScan connect to the DWA/RDC:- You then need the Service functions:- Then Learn TPM sensor:-... Coding TPMS Sensor

I seem to recall that someone had used motorscan to change the reserve display to miles left until empty rather than the miles completed. I have had a look at the app but cant see anything obvious. Does anyone have any pointers? Cycling through the display I saw a figure (that didnt seem to change) of 35 (it had a fuel pump icon next to it so I thought that might be the reserve tank mileage? looking on line I see that the bike has a capacity 3.3 uk gallons, of which 0.33-0.5 is reserve so...

Hello, Everyone! I had the strangest thing happen yesterday. I rode to my destination, 18 miles away, and came back home. Suddenly, on my gravel driveway (which is about ¼ of a mile long) the rear brakes locked up, surprising the heck out of me and making it a bit difficult to stay up. Thank goodness I was riding straight and not in a turn because I would have been sure to go down. Dang, that brake got HOT!! So this prompted my husband to start on my 18,000 mile service to figure out... Sudden Involuntary Stoppage on Rear Brakes!

Hi all, Doing some work on the bike, which involved removing the mirror, i managed to lose the mirror mounting bolt. This is a square bolt that sits in a recess on one the the inner panels I have looked on line but cant find a part number anywhere, Does anyone know the part number or where to find it? ( I looked on the sticky link on this page but got no joy.) Or if anyone has their bike in bits could you measure the size for me please? Many thanks
