Long story which I'll try and cut short.
Bought a 63 plate S1000RR Sport from a BMW main dealer back in March. 8000 miles. ?10500
Noticed a rattle straight away but as the bike had been stood in the showroom over Winter I thought it might just need using. The did do a service on the bike prior...
Hello all.
Had my 2013 S1000RR 2 weeks now so I'm finding my feet with it.
It's standard at the minute.
What can u do to improve it?
It's not bad as it is, but the gearbox feels a bit crap! I read somewhere before about changing a spring which gets rid of the false nuterals.
What else can I...
I plan to fit the parts I've bought over the last few weeks today.
Just wondering what the best way to fit the engine covers was?
I read a thread about it recently but can't find it.
I'm sure somebody said double sided tape but surely that won't hold at silly speeds?
Tempted to glue them!
I'm not a massive fan of my brakes.
I think for the speed of the bike it needs better brakes!
I've Google upgrades and seen the brembo bmc.
?320 ish. That sound about right?
Is there a big improvement or should I be looking at other things?
Cheers
Looking at Carbon for my bike.
Found a carbon front fairing from Z4 Motorsport on ebay. Based in Las vagas.
Works out at about ?270 delivery inc import tax.
Just wondered if anybody had used them and if the quality was good?
Cheers
Does it happen to anybody else?
I occasionally find neutral when going up the gears, not just from 1-2 but it can be in higher gears.
Wakes you up a bit at 10k revs! It hasn't caused me any harm but I just wondered if it was me not giving it a positive enough shift or if I had something out...
Im not overly happy with the feel of my brake lever. Ive not done any trackdays on it but even on the road it doesn't seem to have the feel I like.
Looking at braided hoses but can only find them for non abs bike.
Do any of you have them on an abs bike? If so, who sell them?
Thanks
Hello.
Im new here and only had my S1000RR a couple of rainy weeks.
My mate sent me a picture of a Hp4 yesterday trying to wind me up saying he'd bought it and was so much better than my bike.
I dont know much about the differences between them, other than the Hp4 is lighter and has launch...
Hello.
Just bought a 2010 S1000RR today.
Had a 2004 Gsxr K4 1000, sold it to buy a K5 but couldn't resist the urge to buy this
Rode it 130 miles home, bad rain at times! Even soaking wet I loved the ride home.
