I recently bought a new R1M 2024 from my local dealer. Love it so far, but when I rode it the first time for 15/20 minutes, my legs were getting cooked alive.

I’m new to sports bikes and Yamaha, is this normal? Just for context I do live in the hotter part of the world, so we are in the mid 30s (centigrade) at the moment and I was riding mid-dayish.

Saying that, I did ride it again but this time at night time with a balmy 24 degrees. It was the same issue, it was unbearable sitting in the bike it was that hot. For context it was a mix of highway and start stop traffic at the end of the ride. Obviously more noticeable when I was stopped.

Thanks!

After I messed up my extruder on my X1C, I replaced the unit. After that it seems to work fine, until today. Where I get an error “Filament exposure metering failed because laser reflection is too weak on this material. First layer inspection may be inaccurate.”

Which isn’t the end of the world, since I was using elgoo black pla. Changed it to a green bambu labs filament. Same error, no matter which filament colour but that’s not the issue, the issue is the printer tries to print without an error, but there is no filament coming out of the extruder. I’ve checked all the lines, no jams or blockage. I went and checked the extruder and nothing stuck or broken filament. Checked the

Hi,

I'm going to be moving abroad, and I have a broken motorcycle that I need to store for a few months. I live in Northwood London. I'm looking for any recommendations, or suggestions. I have done the usual google search and found a few storage places that I could store it at. However most are coming up around 75-120+.

Are there any better (cheaper) alternatives?

Last night I was playing the game, went to bed and then waited for it to load to the next day. It’s now stuck on a black screen, with only the sound no music playing. Killed the app and restart, not from where I left off. Do the same thing and it happens again.

I also tried, reloading the game, without killing the app. The game loads then kills the game completely.

Has anyone else seen this happen? It sucks because I was making such good progress.

As the title says, i'm struggling to find 24 hour gyms in AD. The only one google brings up is gym24 in Dubai. Does anyone know of one in AD, if not can you recommend a good gym (i'm in Khalifa City A)?

I was in Ajman and they had IIRC Fitness24 behind the football stadium, which was one of the best gyms i've ever been to. Is there anything similar in Abu Dhabi?

Thanks :)

As the title says, I’d like to buy a motorcycle, I have a full UK car and motorcycle licence. I’ve tried to find out what the process is online but not found much.

Basically I’d like to purchase something similar in type and capacity to a bmw S1000R/R. I’ve seen some classifieds on dubizzle (are these good places to look for a bike) and the like which is simple enough; have the money, buy it.

But, what’s the process if I go to BMW Motorrad and what to pay in installments similar to hire purchase here in the UK?

Really appreciate any help/suggestions.

I’ve been bike hunting and at the same time seeing what sort of insurance premium I’ll be paying. I’ve been looking at similar to my old bike or more powerful bikes I.e. 1000cc.

I can’t find a quote less that £2700 and that just for third party not even theft and fire. Can anyone suggest an insurance company that’s reasonable?

I’m 40+, full car license for over 23 years, 15 years ncb. Unfortunately, I only have 2 years on a bike and no NCB. Also I live in London :(

I wasn’t going to post this, but it annoys me that someone stole my bike, enough for me to post this.

I fairly secure my bike, had a heavy duty chain, disc lock and a thatcham alarm and immobiliser. To top it off it’s parked not to far from my bedroom window and under a street light.

Between 10pm and 4am it was taken. I didn’t hear a whisper, the alarm didn’t go off. The alarm was very sensitive, so if you breathed on it, it would beep loudly to let you know it’s armed. So seems as though the lifted it.

I’m hoping if someone spots it, I could get it back.

Here are some links to pictures of it.
