    Anybody experienced with BMW Assist?

    Three weeks and a new clutch later, bike is now awesome again. Looks like it's been slipping since new, so was fixed for free.

    Anybody experienced with BMW Assist?

    I suspect it's just this one dealer holding everything up. I've asked another dealer to sort it and they're hot in the case. It's still nearly two weeks with no news and no service though :-(

    Agreed. My first bike was a 1000. Just use it appropriately.

    This. Changing gear whilst overtaking is a distraction. If you're only on the road with it, ride the torque and enjoy the longer gears.

    This. That's a small bike, slow too, particularly if you're larger. Qualifying the slow statement, it's relatively slow and will take ragging and changing gears to keep up on ride-outs due to the nature of the bike. You're better off with a 650. You'll learn on it for one, keep it for longer...

    That's my understanding, direct from their Onward Mobility section. Really hard to get hold of service to determine a date to even look at it. I'll keep pushing BMW Central.

    H7 bulb recommendation

    I was recommended Osram Nightbreaker 200's. Must say, they're fantastic.

    Anybody experienced with BMW Assist?

    Bought a 2020 S1000XR on the 26th March, broke down on the 14th April, was recovered in an hour, but then nothing. Eventually got through to the dealer who received it and they talked of bookings until June and couldn't give me a date to even look at the bike. End of conversion. Is this usual...

    Simple formula for scoring rank

    Thank you for everyone's contribution; I knew it would be a tricky subject. As long as it's a reasonable expectation of position given the numbers, this would do it. I did see this but didn't fancy the task of PHP'ing it. It's something I can turn to later on to refine the service.

    Simple formula for scoring rank

    The sample data above is only in principle; it's the point of determining position given those two scenarios, and what's deemed fair. They are good points and highlight the meaningless of rank in this context which is what I'm battling with. I'm thinking of going down this route. Numbers of...

    Simple formula for scoring rank

    Hi, I'm after a simple formula expression to give rank to items based on their number of votes and their score from one to five. ------------ Item #1 Votes = 1,000 Score = 3.9 out of 5 ------------ Item #2 Votes = 1 Score = 4 out of 5 ------------ Should item #2 rank above item #1? I'm...

    Cheap flight but can you?: AMS > LHR > LAS is 1/3 the price of LHR > LAS

    Just looking at them now. Thanks.

    Cheap flight but can you?: AMS > LHR > LAS is 1/3 the price of LHR > LAS

    It was a very quick Google that led to the BA site and those prices but thanks for your feedback. I'll start to investigate further. Trip is two weeks and will incorporate Los Angeles, San Francisco and Las Vegas (with bits inbetween).

    Cheap flight but can you?: AMS > LHR > LAS is 1/3 the price of LHR > LAS

    I'm setting up a road-trip next year and found a curious thing; a return flight from Amsterdam to London, then London to Vegas is about £500 (long London layover) but a return flight from London to Vegas is about £1500. Has anyone ever booked a flight like this then jumped on-board at London...

    Gigabyte GA-AB350-Gaming 3 - red cpu LED and no post

    I do hope this isn't the case with mine!

    No video output from Gigabyte GA-AB350M-G3

    I was going to wing it with onboard graphics for a while but looks like I'll have to stump up sooner rather than later. Oh well.

    No video output from Gigabyte GA-AB350M-G3

    I'm kind of relieved that a GPU will/should fix it and I don't have to go through the hassle of sending stuff back. Very odd it has on-board video output yet is incapable of doing so.

    No video output from Gigabyte GA-AB350M-G3

    The board has VGA and HDMI outputs on it so I assume it does. A mate is going to lend me an old PCI-E card tomorrow just in case.

    No video output from Gigabyte GA-AB350M-G3

    Hi everyone, I've just setup a Gigabyte GA-AB350M-G3 with a Ryzen 5 1600 and one stick of 8Gb 2400 Corsair RAM but I'm not getting anything from the mobo's HDMI or VGA port to the monitor. The stick of RAM is placed second from the CPU. The keyboard's num-lock and caps-lock works so there's...
