I've got two Fieldsheer products, one is the Highlander suit (copy of the Aerostitch) and the other is a Magnesium 1 mesh jacket. Both are excellant products. I've had a Vanson Ventilator mesh jacket but the fit was poor and it had no pockets but, it was very lite and cool for summer riding. The sle...

I've got a 380mm shield for sale but I'm not sure if it fits the Rockster, mine is for a R1150R.

After using different styles and sizes of pipe and clamps I've settled on this one. I noticed when using a bit larger pipe, 2" with a 1.75"ID, that I heard more back firing, or rather "pops" from the exhaust. This is a 1.75 pipe with a BMW exhaust clamp holding it. Before install...

Have you tried a higher grade fuel? (that has made my bike smoother recently). funny how the littlest things can make a difference. took your advice but added a bit of Seafoam then filled it up with Chevron (not my usual brand) amazing difference, must of had an accumulation of bad gas. smoothed ou...

I removed the can and installed a black tip but I was unable to turn the heat shield around due to the angle of the shield and placement of the clamp. So, any ideas how to paint the chrome heat shield black? Type of paint to use or other suggestions. Not much of a chance to get paint to stick to ch...

Mine has this same buzz problem which seems to be getting worse, 20K. Maybe the extra summer work contributes to my hand numbness but the bars definitely buzz more than it has before. I've already set the valves and sync the carbs, that got the buzz out of the seat but it's still in the bars and dri...

Re: windshield polish?

I just did a little cosmetic improvement on my bike, painted the windshield . (small BMW speedster screen) Looks good, but now I have the urge to polish out the scuffs (unpainted side) that I have accumulated for a couple years. Any reccomendations for plastic polish? Anything else that will work t...

My Dad has one on a F650CS, works for him and holds a bunch.

Only thing annoying is that there is no handle to lift the lid, something can be fabricated/added pretty easy though.

Page 240 in the Wunderlich catalog has a pair of touring bars for the R, Part-No.: 1624590

If anyone has a pair I'd like to know how you like them and a comparison between the stock bars.
