Hi Thanks for the add - I'm both new to forums for any bike makes and to riding non Japanese bikes but mates have RRs and others have XRs. So bare with me - I have ridden my mates bikes - both are great bikes but the XR is a bit tall for me - hence my RR purchase. But my purchase is not from a dealer and riding home with my new pride and joy. My experiences so far consists buying at auction (scary) and repairing a CAT D 2015 bike - it's my winter project. Repairs have gone well so far. Damage was mainly cosmetic but I'm still missing a few parts so would appreciate a bit of help in locating these before I resort to Coopers in Sunderland in the spring - Needs:- rear brake cylinder plunger and fixings to connect to rear brake pedal. Anyone got one or know where I can get one - would consider complete cylinder unit. Anyone know if the pre 2015 bikes or other BMW models had same unit?
- rear brake pedal fixing bolt.
- fairing bolts including standard and shoulder type - hope I've got the terminology right
- performance chip. Are these unique to individual bikes or just a standard upgrade?
I look forward to replies
- rear seat cowl
- black fairing RH front
I'm still waiting for the bikes V5 from the salvage yard and appreciate sensitivities of posting on a forum that I've bought an insurance write off that was recently someone's pride and joy. Whilst I don't really want to think about how the bike was damaged or it would be good to know if the previous owner was ok and that i was able to make contact about missing paperwork. Once I have the V5 I will have to make some sensitive enquires as I'm missing the service book, manual and like I have said the performance chip that is usually issued after the 1st service. But in meantime if anyone knows who previously owned a 2015 Black RR that was bought from Coopers Sunderland in April this year which was written off sometime in the past few months ago and you feel that you can pass on info or if you owned the bike please let me know.
Looking forward to replies and to getting out in the bike next spring.
PS I'm suffering cabin fever already!!!
