Ah that's a pity, well as an alternative here a link to the manufacturer website, there are some pictures: https://www.hepco-shop.de/meinbike/bmw/s-1000-rr-2016/sportrack.html?___store=english&___from_store=german

I have made pictures, but I can not attach them to my reply. When I want to attach a picture I am asked for a URL? Probably I'm doing something wrong?

I ordered the H&B sportrack, received the item today, very much pleased with the rugged, sturdy design. Decided to order additional the H&B Rear bag Royster including Lock it adapter. That will set me for my next Europe trip I think. Thanks to this forum I found a great luggage solution :-)

Thanks Alex! I've never seen the plate in real life so difficult for me to get my own opinion about it. Here is what the official H&B website states: "Recommended load: 5kg (please pay attention to vehicle-specific instructions, as well as the attached instructions and the motorcycle...

According to H&B the plate can carry 5 kg. I'm planning a 2500 km round trip in Europe. H&B looks good, but the 5 kg. max load worries me, I need more. Any experience here with the plate carry more than 5 kg? And at high speeds? Bumpy roads?

You could use a towel ;-)

Hahaha, never had fallen rocks on my bike, though I have done quite a bit mountain riding with my previous bikes, amongst others a Ducati Multistrada, big fun. In spring/may it will be first time on the S1000RR. Then I will do a one week round trip, Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Italy...

No need to say sorry Jay, everybody has opinions and it's always good to share them. I can read and understand the German comments at the vid on Youtube. Most comments are similar to yours when it comes to riding style. For me riding is all about learning throttle control and not throttle...

Hi Jay, you are fully right in what you say about careful and thoughtful (not the same as slow) riding. The vid you are referring to is not mine, I do not ride like this and do not want to promote that riding style. I placed that vid as a German Autobahn example from some german guy. So not to...

Thanx!

Thanks a lot! Great forum, congrats!

My explanation to his TC light: He has perfect road conditions. While riding aggressive at optimal road conditions, one could opt to set the TC intervention to high for extra safety. Resulting in the TC blinking continuously? And no, I will definitely not leaning on the electronics continuously...

Guess no one prefers "rain mode" lol... Question: I would like to update my profile info, but then I get the message "you do not have permission to access this page". Am I doing something wrong or is it because I'm a new member?

Won't be any time sooner than spring for the first footage to appear on my channel, but I own several GoPro's and I wil for sure use them on the bike. Next may I have plans for a weeks trip from Holland to Italy on the bike, the German part of the trip will be mainly Autobahn. But there are also...

Bike is full option, every box ticked, German Autobahn without speed limits is a great experience, especially when you ride with more than one bike, big fun. And yes, the RR impresses again and again, never ever boring ;-)

Here is a video of the bike... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCaEmisXeYk

Hi Oli, I own a 2017 S1000RR, so sporty riding is my thing, short and long distances, german autobahn pulls because there you have no speed limits... :-)

Well here is my welcome post, I'm a RR owner and hope to learn here more about this wonderful bike. Cheers.
