    Akrapovic v Stock

    I've got the Akraprovic can it sounds awesome, the popping in the overrun is nicer than standard. Clearly looks better as well. Not sure what's achieved in terms of weight saving- Akraprovic all the way for me...

Essentially it looks like ill be travel alone as two mates have had to decline for financial reasons... i think I'll reside from South Oxfordshire to Portsmouth then take the ferry overnight to Le'Harve. Perhaps ride...

    BMW S 1000rr rear seat

    Hi I have the sport version which as most will be aware doesn't come with rear footrest or pillion seat pad. Rather strange in my option as they are pretty fundamental to the bike, that said I kind of understand why they've created the sport focus and omitted them. Does anybody know if the...

    BMW 2015 S1000rr fuel cap Rizoma

    Hi there, i have one on order in aluminium, unfortunately the BMW specific version comes with a blue inset ring, my bikes the red/white. Apparently they can be changed to red at a further circa ?100!! Alternatively i would have to have black one with red as standard....strange ! I think it...

    New 2015 S1000rr - wouldn't start!

    Thanks for that Dean. That's exactly what I thought in terms of fuel. Seems ok now. Managed to get to the garage and had my Renthal chain and sprocket fitted.

    Rizoma fuel cap.

    Hi, I'm waiting delivery of one, interested in any feedback please. Also are they easy to fit, for someone mechanically inept? Thanks in advance

    BMW rearsets?

    I'm looking for a set for 2015 rr. I wondered if those of you with them rate them, I'm also considering Rizoma. Thanks. Do the early versions fit 2015 model?

    New 2015 S1000rr - wouldn't start!

    Has anybody had any issues starting? I took my bike to have Renthal chain and sprocket fitted first thing, however, the bike wouldn't start for some time! It was turning over as normal but wouldn't fire- got there eventually and seems ok now? Any feedback welcomed. Thank you.

    Almost there...

    Hi there, new S1000rr almost ready for first service! Tuesday next week. Just had a Renthal gold chain and read sprocket fitted, with pro bolt titanium nuts, looks much better than the oe product and the chain had started to rust! Fitted BMW dark screen, Akra can and carbon hanger, Rizoma pro...

    S1000rr 2015- tyres/ traction control

    Forgive me as I'm about to ask a stupid question. I'm still running in my 1000rr which is shod with Bridgestone S 20's, on two occasions the rear end has felt like its slipped away from me. Both occasions I was at a reasonable angle of lean and on the gas in 3rd gear. My initial thoughts were...

    My 2015 S1000RR observations

    Had The QS sorted today. All works fine, apparently it was a switch related to the clutch. Can't believe this bike isn't supplied with a rear seat pad. Not that I ever take pillion, however I could do with one to seat a Kriega tail pack! Does anybody know if the previous model seat fits this...

    My 2015 S1000RR observations

    I took delivery on Friday. Also moved from a 20th Anniversary Blade and my 10th! I too was concerned that I couldn't justify the price difference. However after only 55 miles I love it! Had the Akro fitted, the standard can sounded great- particularly the popping on overrun. The Akro sounds...
