In just one week, some friends from Canada and the US will be landing in Berlin and we'll set out on a 12-day ride around Europe. Time to do some motorcycle maintenance.
I will be riding my 1190, and one of my buddies will take my 690. The tires on the 1190 have some tread left on them, but I don't got a lot of confidence to run them for this entire trip, which I expect will be ~5,000 kms. So, for peace of mind, I've ordered a new set. Also, both bikes will need fresh oil and filters.

3 Litres of Silkolene 10W50 synthetic for the 1190,
and topped up with another ~ 300 mL of Motorex 10W60
(my preferred oil for the 690)
