Good day ,

My name is Lesley 32 years old from the Netherlands
Nice forum have already read a lot
last weekend i bought a Bluefire S1000RR with 13780 km 2012

with the following options:
Abs + Dtc (I think they all have that, right?)
heated handles
Akrapovic exhaust mounted by BMW according to previous owner (I think the Full akrapovic evolution)
crash pads on the side black bobbins

upcoming plans:
smaller license plate holder without turnsingal . do i need an fender replace ? or only the holder ? (Someone idea's / tips?)
rear light with integrated turnlight
smaller front turnlights
db killer

i hope to learn a lot here and perhaps to exchange experiences.

hopefully my english is good enough .

Grtz West

 
Hello West-13, and welcome from me, a fairly recent member also. A really helpful and knowledgeable forum.:tennis:

Not sure I understand fully the licence plate question ?.

Bluefire is a fantastic colour !.

Welcome! Plenty of useful info and look forward to seeing pictures of ur bike!!
 
Hello thanks :)

How can i explain . The stock licenseplate / Fender is a big thing i want to change it to a smaller one .

But what parts do i need ? Universal license plate Holder is not as pretty as like the ones from yoshimura and stuff like that

Welcome to the forum Lesley and congratulations on your new RR!
Great colour choice, the bike looks fantastic!

I too would recommend an Evotech tail-tidy.

For the short Akrapovic silencer, I do not believe there are dB inserts available(?)

What sort of riding do you enjoy primarily and what is your riding history?

Enjoy the forum [emoji41]
 
Many thanks Guys :) ,

we want an plate holder without the holes for turn signal this will be in the taillight . so i want an clean looking licenseplate with led lights / and some kind of cover for the undertail .so you don't see the holes

i don't think it to maybe another Slip on with an DB insert . ( for city riding or germany trips )

the kind of riding is ( don't know how to say it exactly ) [FONT=Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif]recreational / pleasure riding.
summer rides but also trips to the Eifel in Germany .

riding history is : Kawasaki ZX-7R / Suzuki Gsx-r Srad 600 / Kawasaki Z1000 and a lot of bikes of friends

now owning :
Gsx-r 2004 600cc and BMW S1000RR 2012

Hello,
I want to order some stuff to give a bit love to the motorcycle
now I have read somewhere that if you have a full akrapovic exhaust you also need a smaller / less high oil filter.

anyone have experience with that?


This is also my list so far,

someone additions or tips?
engine oil and oilfilter
Castrol Power 1 Racing SAE 5W-40 OIL 4LKN-013 filter / mahle filter

spark plugs
LMAR9D-J NGK

Clean or replace air filter
KN-006 air filter

Check or replace coolant (top up)
Putoline coolant NF

Replace brake / clutch fluid
DOT 4 how many ml total?

Replace front brake pads
Brembo SC

addition to the gasoline which cleans the fuel system and delays aging of the gasoline
Putoline Fuel Inject & Valve Cleaner

best regards ,

 
7100 10-40 is okay if you use it on road only.

I've never had 2012 but on gen3 never had oil filter clearance issue with full akra. Even a big one with top button for lock wire fits fine.
