Keyless go, who asked for it, who wants it, who likes it. A solution to a problem that never existed, and its put all our insurance premiums up! Good to see you out n about again, feeds the soul and fills the happy tanks right back up.

okay okay okay, I'm convinced. New R1250GS Rallye to be picked up next Saturday morning from Arden, T.Wells. I test rode one 3 years ago but went into denial. In the last 2 weeks I've re-visited the adventure bike thing and test rode most of them then realised what I knew all along. Thanks for all the vid's and helping with my decision making process 👍. Btw I tried the R1250R (after watching your review) and was very very tempted just because of the way the engine works in such a small package but as you pointed out it is a VERY VERY small package.

Just got back from a very similar trip. UK to Croatia using Calimoto on mainly the winding option. Through the Alps and the Dolomites. I did, sort of, get fed up with switchbacks as well. On the return trip I avoided the mountains as much as possible. Didn't see one other British biker all the way there ( including the Euro Tunnel ) and all the way back (apart from the Euro Tunnel, where there was one other biker on the train ). Had a great time though. Hope the keys turn up. That's a very expensive thing to do - losing those keys. Loved Slovenia

@trapdoorspider9211 Год назад

At teapot probably a warp in one or both front discs nothing to do with the pads. This happens a lot with poor quality material’s you wont get this with breaking wavy disc mine got hot enough to get a purple gold blue colour without warping and they have no ware marks due to using carbon ceramic pads👍 these pads in my opinion have the best feel happy riding enjoy. Ok they don’t last as long but i like to get the bike stopped when needed.

@JEmmertz Год назад

Haven't watched to the end yet, so not sure how the hunt for the keys are going. I do feel your pain though! Love keyless for my car, but came to understand already on my first ride with it that it can be a serious issue: While driving the car home, I needed to take a wee, so stopped at a gas station. Somehow I just couldn't find a way to lock the car. The key only have 3 buttons, so how hard can it be, really? Nope, no success on the most logical button. None of the others either. Rinse & repeat a few times while questioning sanity. Sanity gave up and I was left with pure desperation. In the end I gave up and let the state of my bladder take precedence, and left the car unlocked. It all went fine, and when I came back I had to go through the manual - yes, that text based paperwork that is probably autotranslated by a drunk robot in France. Turns out you cannot lock the car with the key, IF the key is inside the car. Brand new car and all the papers and the spare key was in my rucksack in front of the passenger seat. So, I while I was frantically stabbing away on the main key just outside the car's door, the spare key was on the inside and that made car decide that there should be no automagical locking going on.

@thejollyrider3738 Год назад

Great vid, wish I could find time to do a proper tour! Can you do a 'how to' video on how to persuade a wife she should stay at home whilst I go on tour alone for a couple of weeks?

@teapotone Год назад

🤣 It’s all in the ‘pre-selection’ of said wife. Find one who doesn’t mind you buggering off for a week or so every now and then 😉👍

@paulgibson490 Год назад

Hi teapot you say your discs are worn uneven I think you ment pads the only way to even out the pad wear is to swap them side to side every 6 thousand miles or soo. I had to do that on my Triumph Explorer. Have had no problems on my GS which has the now no longer fitted Hayes calipers I think you need new discs unless you're pads are contaminated as you say the front brake vibrates or judders. I am coming up to 24 thousand miles with my bike ride 2 up all the time and pads about 2 thirds worn. Hope you get it sorted soon always like your vlogs.

@teapotone Год назад

Aye sorry Paul, I did mean pads 👍

@stephenpotts8170 Год назад

Great video Bruce, but you have confused me with your keys, is your spare a full transponder battery key or is it your grey plastic emergency key, because that one will only work when you hold it in the little round recess under the rear mudguard. Just to let you know if it's a normal spare transponder spare you should not carry both keys whilst riding it can knacker the ignition up. I do carry a full spare hidden some ware on the bike but I wrap it in multiple layers of tin foil to block it's signal. A spare one from your main agent is about £240. Thank you

@michaelwilliams3861 Год назад

Great vid Bruce. I don’t understand about the key, the spare key doesn’t work like the primary key. You have to put it under the back wheel arch for it to work. But you’ve probably found the key by now anyway:)

@teapotone Год назад

No that’s the plastic failsafe key - I’m talking about the actual spare key. You get two proper keys when you buy a bike.

@michaelwilliams3861 Год назад

@@teapotone ah, I bought my bike two years ago, I only got one key

@michaelwilliams3861 Год назад

@@teapotone all these people slating keyless, basically, if you haven’t got your/a key on you, the bike won’t start, so you can never ride off without a key. Will have to ask the question about the price of a new one though.

@teapotone Год назад

What bike?

@teapotone Год назад

Yep I actually love keyless personally - I just don’t understand why some manufacturers make the ignition keyless, but you need the key to open the fuel cap? WHY?!?! 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤣 The problem comes when you start your bike at home in the garage and the key is not on you but close enough to the bike - such as on a workbench, or in the pocket of another jacket that’s hanging up close enough to the bike. You start the bike and ride off, leaving the key at home. Yes you’ll get a warning on the dash, but I get this fairly frequently with my own bike even when I know I have the key in my pocket (as the battery in the key fob degrades, the effective range will decrease). So I often just ignore this warning on the dash 🤷‍♂️

@mabsbry1318 Год назад

Keys? I’m guessing you’ve moved clothing and luggage to and from bike, making sure the spare key is not in reach/being used, and then painstakingly moved item up to and away from the bike to see if any item contains the key?

@teapotone Год назад

Yeah I did all that, found them eventually. This was from back in May👍

Hi Bruce, Miss Austria so much, it’s been 3 years since our last tour, Hoping to get back there next year.

@teapotone Год назад

Yep but then what would you do when you go to start the bike and it won’t start because the key isn’t there… and it’s 160 miles back the way you came at the last fuel stop? 😬 I’ll always have my spare with me on a trip, just in case

@sjaisie Год назад

@@teapotone if you lost the only key more than around 8ft from the bike then it wouldn’t start so you couldn’t get 160 miles away. 😉 Does the bike have a warning when the key signal has been lost? For example, you drop the key on the ground next to the bike, so it starts, but then ride away! 🫤

@teapotone Год назад

It won’t cut out, it just won’t restart when you next switch it off. Yes you get a warning on the dash if it can’t detect the keys, but you get this fairly regularly as sometimes even with the keys in your jacket pocket, I get a warning as the battery degrades.
