Changing my RR

[cally1066]

I had a black one and swapped it to a motorsport and I'm glad I did as banana man says the black just blends in and looks plain old Jayne lol

 

[Loupe]

You guys......!! :sorrow:
Nope definitely made my mind up, I'm going for the black.









I think

 

[bananaman]

You'll need a plaque with BMW on it then just so we can recognise it lmao !! :victorious:

I'm sure you will come to yr senses

 

[Loupe]

Well....
The carbon costs approx ?1500 from ilmberger for what I want. Might be m sport colours after all!

 

[Marzy]

M sport m sport m sport m sport m sport m sport m sport m sport m sport m sport

 

[Loupe]

Aaaarrrgghhh I'm weak! I need to use the force

 

[alex]

Black is way cooler. More you know, less you need to show. We don't need to be all shouty like the other editions.

 

[alex]

Black goes with Carbon and Gold Magnesium OZ wheels MS just looks daft with carbon and gold...

 

[alex]

Once you go black you never go back...
Allegedly

 

[Billo01]

Yeah, come and join us on the dark side and a faster one at that.

You opting for the forged wheels again?

 

[Loupe]

Noooooooooo, stop!!
Really wanted the black but I don't like the non painted black parts so would have to buy carbon which is a small fortune now that I've added it up.
Doubt im getting anything thrown at it by the dealer as its a straight swap, he had to try hard to get a replacement as BMW wanted to only replace parts and not the bike which would have been a disaster.
Obviously I like the m sport colours but don't want reminded of the last one.
No idea what I'm doing now lol

 

[Loupe]

Yeah, come and join us on the dark side and a faster one at that.

You opting for the forged wheels again?

Absolutely, feels amazing into corners with them, soooo light!

 

[stuart69allan]

Metallic black with the black swingarm and gold forks looks immense! If i had to pay ?500 extra for the black i would have done. Stealth and sexy and if you want to go carbon its a no brainer

 

[MacRR]

I think black could look really good with some contrasting coloured forged wheels

 

[Loupe]

You're not helping guys! Lol:encouragement:

 

[Flatstick]

like my black one, and jap4 performance are starting to do carbon at a fraction of the price of BMW

Dean

 

[Loupe]

It does look good Dean! I'll check out their carbon prices.
Do you have any experience of jap 4 carbon, I hear it's all about the weave and depth when talking about carbon?
Id like to price it out.

 

[Billo01]

Plus I got the HP rearsets on mine which I think look miles better than the OE ones, especially on the black one... Did I say black oops!
Having said that, on the U.S. BMW forum a guy has the red BMW and replaced all the white panels with the black ones, does look good and different

 

[Flatstick]

Think Stuart69allan has had a bit of there stuff and there is a 10% discount for forum members, I have a full set of there body work on my 500 and have no complains.
