Well BMW already made a yellow (old model) M1000RR so all the police had to do was put some blue stickers on it and wire it up with lights and siren, cameras and radio etc. But putting a 6'5" rider on it must be some sort of internal police joke. My bike ( a 2021 S1000RR) is just the right size...

GS-911 is much easier to do these mods - bimmer utility is a bit of a slog but once you follow the procedures methodically it works. I got my Bimmer utility shipped from the US to Republic of Ireland no problem. I think the customs charge was only €17. I already had the GS-911 but at the time...

Lovely bike - wonder why BMW dropped the red colour. If I had gone for a sport (rather than the m sport) I would have chosen red too. Perhaps it made the bike too Ducati like?

Congrats - got mine in January too. 874 km up on it now. Tried to ride it to Dublin last week for its first service but had to turn back at Adare over the bad weather. So attempt no 2 is this Friday and the weather is looking good for the trip. Was the BMW a replacement for the R6 or are you...

Reminds me of the time I injured my knee and had a full leg cast on for 6 months. When they took it off my knee was locked solid but with physio it gradually got to about 30 degrees. At least then I was able to drive my beautiful Fiat 128 3p SS which I missed so much having to take the bus...

So eventually had to concede that this bike definitely needs a tank protector. Managed to get one that sort of mimics the bikes colour scheme so it does not look too much out of place. As you really lean over this tank the paint would be worn down to the metal in no time at the rate it was being...

I considered doing that too but as far as I can see the rear compartment is fully sealed unless you drill a hole somewhere and with all the water spray from the rear wheel I am reluctant to do that. So I take it then that there was not a factory option for a front USB port?

So now its next week - any word or pics on the new arrival?

OK thanks. I am 62 from Tralee too. Retired from the police (sergeant) in 2013. I was a bike cop in Limerick city and Killarney for a total of about 10 years so never needed my own bike as I was paid to ride the cop bikes. They don't allow sergeants to ride bikes here so promotion in 1998 ended...

So shortly after ordering my bike in August 2020 I got a call from the dealer who was sending off the specs to the factory and he asked me did I want the front USB port as an optional extra. This optional extra had only just become available apparently. From what I recall of the conversation...

For some reason it would not accept my reg no - you have to close out of the page completely to start again s I did with my VIN No - no recalls / enhancements for this vehicle it says. manufactured Oct / Nov 2020.

That post did not come out right?? Hi - I got my new S1000RR M package in January - so far all going well. Need some wet weather tyres though. The Metzeler K3's are good in the dry but I just don't feel confident on them in the wet. I am thinking of getting another set of carbon wheels and...
