So after riding from London to the Brecon Beacons in Wales two weeks ago and then Cornwall last weekend I decided to do something really silly and ride to the Dolomites since I've been wanting to go all year and it was getting unlikely before the snow came! It was a pretty optimistic proposition...

Just done three days at Redbull Ring. What a place!

I bought a TWM petrol top and lost the damn cap at Brands. If anyone has one they would sell I'd love you long time!?

So does anyone have any feedback from test riding today?

What he said ^ :)

I've been looking at my data after the weekend. I've been looking at traction control as I very rarely have it on anything but the minimum because I dont like the intervention but this time ran it on -3. The rear wheel speed matches the GPS speed so that looks ok but the front is always 5-10%...

Has anyone done this? It's not something I've seen on the BMW but I'm struggling to feel stable on the bike and moving around really poorly. I tried my Pani tank extender and it fits quite well in a Blue Peter kind of way! I immediately felt so much more natural sitting on the bike so really...

Putting this here instead of on the other threads. Tom Sykes and Mark Reiterburg currently dominating the timesheets around the fast and twisty sector 3 of Aragon. In my mind thats super promising for the new bike for us since they are only loosing time because they are struggling to run the...

Morning, Does anyone have a copy of the 2015+ BMW 2D datalogging software that I could grab off you please? It doesn't seem to be available for download from the 2D website. I'm still troubleshooting TC / warning lamp issues and have Jerez this weekend and could really do with knowing that...

Jesus, and I thought Ducati was expensive for parts! I've a horrible feeling I might need a new sensor after having trouble sorting out spacers on my spare wheels.

It pains me to do this but I think it's going to be too much hassle racing next year with two different brands of wheels. I am looking to swap these Titax for a set of gen 3 HP or HP4 wheels or to swap my HP wheels for another set of Titax the same as these which is unlikely I know but I thought...

Thought I should stick up a build thread as I've got bunch of plans with the bike and been using it lately. I bought it new in 2015 as a 'practical road/work bike that could also do noise restricted trackdays'. I had just started contracting work and thought I would need a commuter. I test rode...

https://youtu.be/yRdDCvifYKM Little vid from this weeks adventures in Portugal. I'm recovering form a pretty big crash racing at Cadwell a few months back so no heroics, just a bit of tuning into how to ride the BMW with no dramas. The Laverty brothers were running a race school and Pete...

Does anyone know any other cheaper places than this to buy switch gear for a gen 3? https://shop.alpharacing.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_cvs_info&cPath=0&products_id=15210&language=en&gclid=Cj0KCQiA2o_fBRC8ARIsAIOyQ-nTkawccgMo2pkQY7u9nhYSgdZzg1jMX--_EOCxEO0cujxPPv6dKy8aAo7AEALw_wcB

Anyone know if these front subframes are any good? From Poland and a decent price although don't come with the fairing bracket. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-S1000RR-2009-2016-RACE-FRONT-FAIRING-BRACKET-HIGH-QUALITY/162199820006?hash=item25c3dcd6e6:g:je0AAOSw2xRYan9S

For me the BMW electronic suspension on my Gen 3 is the best I have used on the roads and for places like the Nurburgring but I found it wanting on short tracks where I just couldn't get the front to feel right. I've not done many miles on a 1299 Panigale with the fully active suspension but my...

I'm moving to race the 1000cc class for next year on either a ready built gen 3 S1000RR or to get suspension, headers, track fairings, spare wheels, etc to convert mine so might be interested in some kind of deal. Yamaha R6 racebike for sale ?7000. Drop in price as I?ve got something I want...

Could have sworn there was a thread for photos? anyhows here's a couple from 21Jul16:

Had a pretty epic day doing the Brands Hatch GP circuit yesterday. It was a bit mixed emotions through the day as we had a bunch of red flags from crashes and it was getting frustrating but they gave us a double time session at the end to make up for it. It's an incredible circuit; possibly one...

Anyone here heading along to either of these track days?
