Triple bike trailers are a much better bet Al.
A double means you have to carry two bikes as just one will mean the balance is off. Whereas with a triple a single bike can go in the middle, two bikes can go either side and three of course with one in each slot

Mr. Spock is my role model so be advised; I possess no (discernible) sense of humour.
It's all VFR (DCT) round here now. STILL missing my 1100s tho.

Most "doubles" - you can move one of the rails to the middle position, and carry only the one bike.
All it involves for the manufacturer- is the addition of a couple of bolt-holes in the centre of the frame.

If I am ever on life support - Unplug me......
Then plug me back in..........
Wow, what an amazin thread those bikes got me drooling. Gus good luck with it mister, it will be soooo good. Lots of pictures would be appreciated by all I'm sure.
Hello all
Thanks for the positive comments.
I have started stripping the bike off any excess parts. I will be posting these in the for sale section in a bid to help fund the build!! I will post some pics later of the stripped down bike and some more photos I took at the race last year.
All the best
Gus

What are you doing to the 12S in the off season?
Cheers
What do you think!!!! that would be some recovery . Hang on and enjoy the ride
The 12s is being converted for race use. New fairings and a few performance trinkets.
Gus
Where do you get the race fairings from? As far as I know sjbmw does a set but it is expensive. Strangely sebimoto doesn't make race fairings for the 12s, only for the 11s and s1000rr.
Hi
I ,m using the Fairings off a HP2 s ,race items. You have to mod and change a fair few items to make them fit the 1200s. You can get a kit which replicates a 1000rr. Fairings and tail piece.Pretty much bolts on with supplied sub frames.
All the best
Gus
