My Long term bike

Awesome bike! For a moment I was thinking this should be my next bike. 😉

I love the BMW R nine t 👍 it's such a classic design with that little bit of modern and retro flavor. I tested one in January. It’s a joy to ride and the build quality is great! If I get some space again, I’m definitely considering buying one. But I need to let go of my Suzuki and Kawasaki first. The CB650R will stay a bit longer in the stable 😂😂

Just wondered what you think to the Andreani fork internals and did you install the cartridge kit? Was it done at same time as shock or one after the other? Cheers

Hi, I installed the fork kit after the the rear Ohlins. I wasn't impressed by either end components, I bought the rear shock and then had it tuned for road use, it was so good that it made the front end feel even worse. I read all I could about front alternatives and decided on the Andriani internals, modified as suggested by some internet posts. This completely changed the feeling of the bike, the other major change was the lighter tubeless Kineo wheels which had a dramatic effect making the handling feel planted but much lighter. A lot of time money and effort but well worth it.
Regards, Phil.
