<straight bat> I don't have a 916. But seriously, Ventura kit is great and works at eek speeds [1]. Rack comes off when not in use and how many folks noticed the rails when we were riding around on saturday? Anyway, whole system comes off with 4 bolts and takes less than 5 mins. It's all taken off and will only be put back on next time I need it. [1] I decided 177 was about enough.
I had a 98 916 biposto in Yellow & very nice it was. -- Nige, BMW K1200S Range Rover Vogue Aprilia RSV Mille
There is a story to this one. He was in the same Homestay as Robbie and I for the 2008 MGP, he and SO came on the VFR. After lusting over my bike for a week he trotted off and bought one. A rather huge lurch in the right direction, as Statto knows. TBF Andy has some strength in his left hand.
I had a bit of a twitch moment myself, but I'm not keen on the wheels, so that's my excuse -- Nige, BMW K1200S Range Rover Vogue Aprilia RSV Mille
