Use mine for all occasions ( no track days, will get round to this one day!) . But in particular, I commute into the outskirts of London ( when the sun shines) and haven't come across any stumbling blocks yet. My Previous K46 RR competently managed this in all weathers for many years ( I did...

Even if you removed the mounting bolts, I assume it wouldn't get past the fork leg itself? But I also assume, if a thief is THAT desperate or informed they'll be having it away one way or another....

My personal choice - I'm not currently interested in tracking her. So it's aesthetics ( my personal opinion) and raucous notes - does come with a baffle. Racefit https://store.racefituk.com/collections/bmw-s1000

Very disheartening to hear both jays and hploggers stories. while at the same time, quite worrying! But I have to say, BMW seems very marmite in this regard. I wish you both more reassuring and expected levels of service with whoever you choose next!

I paid ?16.25 for my lock cylinder and tumbler kit from Bahnstormer maidenhead. Part no. C51.25.7.698.204 if anyone needs it.

As Alex said :)

Must've of took it past that 99 degrees of lean there Immortal!:p But in all seriousness, that's a live display of your lean angle and you can change how quickly if reacts to lean angles. Its in the manual some where:p

That'll be the lean angle indicator you're seeing immortal - the service message actually covers your temp gauge ( well it did on my 15' gen3 )

Always used nickel slip myself over copper. There are many discussions regarding the two ( but nothing major in difference for us on a motorbike) Just found the nickel slip to be more of a versatile lubricating/ anti- sieze paste. But there's always a bespoke paste/ lubricant for any...

A Few guys have removed the OE grips and replaced them with Renthal mediums, I believe on a 2012 model ( but you have to have two throttle sides, due to the extra size the element adds.)...

L/H drill bits work a treat as well. But they can be quite pricey in comparison and not as readily available as easy outs are.

My tools of choice: - Norbar TT Wrench TTi50 8-50Nm Norbar TT Wrench TTi250 50-250Nm Teng 34mm 1/2 6Pt socket 24mm Unbranded Hex head Socket

Not 100% sure paradoc, but I believe if you contact demontweeks they will be able to help you out.

Unfortunately, I don't personally have anything like that spare - maybe another member might still or good old eBay? Or if you have the solo seat cover, you could 'borrow' the plate from that. I think it's interchangeable?

Your seat didn't come with anything fitted to the underside of the pillion seat, where the barrel should be? It should like roughly like this - see the metal plate? ( sorry for the crappy image)

Personal choice has always been Norbar. Used them at work and home and never had an issue with accuracy or function of the wrench. +1

I have to admit there isn't any shortage of these style of stands/lifts. Which allowed me to apply the Bursig instructions; hopefully to help evosport out. Personally, the Abba system looks the business IMO. But it depends on your space and needs. ( I've got the basic superbike stand myself)

The Bursig Stand is very similar ( I couldn't find any warrior instructions) So here's a link to Bursigs youtube - which has a few comprehensive adjustment/ setup videos. https://www.youtube.com/user/BURSIGUSA/videos?sort=dd&view=0&shelf_id=0

I see there's an adjuster on the third picture ( 20170520_165337.jpg) I assume releasing the bolt in the centre of the mounting pins and altering the adjuster would pivot it into position? I don't own one, just having an educated guess:p

+1 Quick release key rings to make things even easier as well
