ESA makes suspension settings simple to understand and quick and easy to change. ESA:

• is an option on many BMW models and most late model R1200GS's
  
• displays the current settings on the info flatscreen
• is easy to use - just press the ESA button
• is very intuitive - you should only need to be shown how to use it once
• makes it possible while riding to adjust suspension in two ways:
  • Preload - can only be adjusted while stationary with the engine idling such as while at traffic lights. *
  • Damping - can be adjusted while riding.
  But just what settings suit you!, read the ESA article on the Usefull Links page to learn more
  

To all of you who participated in the RFDS Fundraiser at Kartworld earlier this year or kindly donated to the cause, please see the letter and card received from Sonia at the RFDS

Phil and Kate from North Yorkshire in England will be arriving in Perth this December 2012 at the beginning of a 9 month motorcycle tour of Australia. They have been following the BMW MCC of WA online and would like to meet up with the members at Catalano's one Sunday morning. They would also appreciate some advice/tips on biking in Australia and  the opportunity to join members for a ride out or just breakfast and a chat.

Thanks to all the members who regularly take pictures and send them in to the committee. With the advent of better camera's the file size of photo's is going up and up. Ideally for use on the website we only need screen resolution sizes ie around 250Kb. Where ever possible please submit your photo's in this form and not as 3-6Mb files. That way we can publish them quickly without having to re-size them. You may find an easy way of doing this is to email your photos to us, if you use Outlook it will ask you if you want to re-size your photo's for email.

Thanks
