Another new bike based on the RR, S1000F a tourer

Thought I'd post this for you guys to have a chuckle over. This is what 22st of..... lets say sex appeal, looks like on an S1000RR. Bring on the insults (friendly banter only mind) :scooter:

Evening.. I've searched forum and found a few threads but none seemed to ever get finished (ie all questions answered) last couple hundred miles, bike has started a rattle, its just over 12000 miles so my initial assumption would be cam chain, this is my first bike with an automatic cam chain...

And it purrsss... literally, like an asthmatic cat http://www.engadget.com/2014/05/20/lightning-ls-218-electric-motorbike-revealed/

I do like the painted frame.

I'm sure most of you have seen this, it's been around the web alot last 2 weeks. But thought I'd share for the few who haven't. It is pure sex on wheels, with brembo brakes, Ohlins suspension, Carbon/Titanium mix frame, KTM 1195cc Vtwin engine putting out 200bhp and weighing in at 180kg. All...

Hi guys. Bad day for me with bike. In shop for service and more things wrong than i expected. Sump has corroded, tensile strength tested new chain before putting it on and it snapped, and pistons on front caliper's have seized and corroded again. Along with other little things. Can anyone...

I have a headlight out at the moment, so popped in to dealer thinking they would be reasonably priced on something as small as a bulb. Wrong - £15.70. Coming home I took the bulb out to discover it's an OSRAM (12V55w H7 ofcourse) looking online I can get exactly the same OSRAM bulb for £3.95...

So i'm curious if anyone has a local bike night they go to? thinking of travelling a bit to different meets. My local is bikernites for the cotswold and surrounding area, held every wednesday night since 2002. Aimed to raise money for SW Air Ambulance. heres a vid of one of my local meets...

Insurance is up is 2 weeks so was shopping around this morning. I was 27 when I bought my S1000 from dealer and the only company who would insure me was BMW Insurance and only Third Party (so they wouldn't have to pay for my bike) with a shocking price of £1500. Skip a year and it dropped to...

Has anyone changed the press and hold high beam to a on/off switch with the beamer? Riding alot at night on unlit A roads and having to hold it in is annoying and reduces control of bike. I've changed one on a zx9 a few years back, but haven't looked inside the left side controls yet to see if...

Hello.. Does anyone know what the standard chain's tensile strength is?

Afternoon all. After a few quick questions you guru's could probably answer for me. Power Commanders on old bikes I know my way around but not with the electronics the S1 has. 1. Will fitting PCV remove Traction Control and/or ABS? 2. I've read to map each gear individually you'd have to fit a...

Unsure if it's been posted in the past. http://www.rudedares.com/video/471/female-bike-rider-goes-naked

Just wondering others views on the Motorsport colours regarding whether BMW should do away with them on 2013 models and above due to the fact it's not actually relevant anymore since BMW no longer have a factory bike in WSB. And should they release a Goldbet colouring. I will say I've never...
