People screaming about gas prices in th US....
HAHAHAHAHAHA. Try € 2,30 / liter of petrol folks pay here (do the conversion yourself).

I've put a few hundred km's on my 'new' bike now over the course of last week and this weekend (mostly motorway riding), and I have to say that I find it more comfortable than my K1200LT. I also can't wait for the backrest to arrive. That'll make the ride even more comfortable. #motosky

The'd be pulled over and at least given a warning for putting others in danger. Maybe I should have stayed behind the van on my part?

I can't help but scoff whenever I see Americans complain about the prices they pay for fuel.

send this to a friend to jumpscare them

We'd have built-in, supercharged full body sized blowdriers!

Not in The Netherlands

I don't know where I can.

Naaaaah, you're looking just fine there :)

Thankfully the vast majority of drivers here are very aware of bikers, and make sure there's enough space. This was just the odd exception. He did actively try to block me, but could not proceed any further because there was a car in front of him.

It's rather shitty to block the way when a motorcyclist is legally, and carefully filtering in a traffic jam.

How I arrived on BlueSky....

I think it was a cookie issue.

PayPal (well, they're not pals!) keeps on spitting out 'We can't verify it's you" bullshit, despite having 2FA, so they definitely know it's me!
I've always struggled with PP. They're a bunch of cunts. Sadly, a necessary evil if you want to transfer money to someone without having to use a bank.

You'll pee forever.

Something an equine suffers the morning after accidentally gobbling down hot chillis.

I.... don't think I'd fight that invasion ♥️

Kids from that reality cone home after school, where they were like that, and skin their pets alive.

This belongs in one of those strange, distopian alternative realities.

Naaaaah.
That's just commie nonsense!

Awwww :( Poor Ren.

Swap that G&T for a pint of Hefe, and I'm your man (I'll take G&T in the evening :D )

Gravity tunnel FTW!

I don't know you. This is the first time I come across your account.
But this is heartbreaking. Judging from the picture you posted of your late dad, he was far too young :(

My sincere condolences.
I wish you and your family all the best for the coming period.

It won't display the bike's functions / diagnostics, like the 702BS will (no speed-o, rev counter, etc), but I don't need that functionality. The bike's on-board instruments do a good enough job with that.

Assembled B702 Pro, short RAM arm, RAM base plate, and BMW adapter.

Carpuride mounted on my R1200RT, using the BMW adapter, and short RAM arm. Shown is how it nicely clears the smaller cradle of the bike.

Carpuride 702b Pro, with the ball screwed onto the back place, and a BMW adapter

A short (I ended up using this), and a long RAM arm

A RAM plate glued onto the back of the BMW adapter

The 702B Pro comes with a BMW adapter you can mount on the stub which is on the device's back.
What I did in stead, is screw the ball on the stub, glue a RAM plate on the BMW adapter, and use a short RAM arm to link up the two. This gives me enough elevation to clear the nav cradle on my bike.

So, out of the box, a Carpuride 702B pro will not fit on / in the nav cradle of a BMW R1200RT (2016).
Now there are adapters you can buy (AliExpress has one, I believe), but if you, like me, have a small collection of disused RAM mount parts gathering dust, all you need is some glue. >> #motosky

There should be a "FUCK YOU" option a user could pick, if a website presents them with something annoying, like a "Later", in stead of "No" button. It should blast the words "FUCK YOU" at ear drum ripping volumes in the ears of whoever wanted that there. Or a bitch-slap by a flat, flying hand.
