Re: R1100r - can I use an exhaust from a r1200gs

Hi, Chris! It looks like I am leaning towards selling the whole bike because of seating/comfort issues, but I haven't come to a final decision. So, if that is the case, I'm not going to bother with swapping out the exhaust. I can see why you might want to go this direction. The Two Brothers really m...

Re: R1100RL Resources

Thanks for the tip about moving the seat support! I moved it as far back as I could. I have found a significant change in my riding position, but still not quite enough to deal with my large size. If I worked with a custom seat guy I could probably get it to a point where it would be acceptable, but...

Hey, I think most people would agree that if we were sane ... (Just sayin' ...) Here are a couple of pics that were sent to me by the previous owner.

Re: R1100RL Resources

Thank you for responding! Even if I'm not real happy hearing how "Special" my bike is, at least I won't be wasting a lot of time looking in the wrong places. My main concern has been about the comfort of the seat because of my previous experience with my F650gs Twin, but I have since found...

Re: R1100r - can I use an exhaust from a r1200gs

Hi, Chris! I'm in Minneapolis. The purchase was completed this morning and I should have the bike by late Friday. I have no idea what I have gotten myself into buying an 1100R without ever having ridden one. If it doesn't work out, I probably will go back to an F650gs Single. But if it isn't too muc...

Re: R1100r - can I use an exhaust from a r1200gs

No promises, cause I have no idea if I am going to dislike the "Two Brothers" exhaust that is on the R1100RL that I am supposed to be getting this week. I have a tendency to want to keep the bike stock, and my neighbors have always appreciated my quiet bike. If you are interested (and ever...

R1100RL Resources

Haven't been active on this board but mainly because I was riding an F650GS Twin. I'm having to change/slow down my riding style a bit and have purchased a 2001 R1100RL to keep me in the game. I really enjoyed making my F650gs "my own" and now will do a little of the same to this bike (I'v...
