BMW R1200R R1150R/T F800 K1200R R1100R/T R1250R RnineT Message Board

On the way back from the Indianapoilis GP, a piece of gravel shattered my front left oem turn signal. Does anyone have suggestions on where to find an aftermarket set of front turn signals for my 2002 R1150R? I'd like to replace the OEMs with something different....

I bought my R back in April and posted a few questions about lowering it - at 5'2" I couldn't get both feet on the ground at the same time. Last week I installed new Works shocks which lowered it about an inch and a Wunderlich low seat (another inch) and can finally get both feet on the ground ...

How do you know you have a single spark plug? I have an 02 - what type of plug does it have? I don't have the OEM manual for the bike, else I'd look there.

Not all BMW sales people are as you described. I bought my "new to me" RR at Durham BMW (east of Toronto) and the sales guy went out of his way to help me source non-BMW stuff (lower shocks, lower seat, etc..) He said he could sell these items to me, but it would be less expensive if I wen...

It runs great. I've only put about 500km on it to date, and got about 280km on he second tank of gas. The first tank only got about 200km, but I think the dealer didn't give me a full tank. I called the dealer's service department this afternoon and was told this is normal. I was planning to wait a ...

I changed out my stock cat converter and exhaust can with a full Remus Revolution system. When I removed the oxygen sensor it was coated with a very thick layer of black soot. After I removed the cat converter, I noticed the headers and pipes to cat converter were also coated with thick soot. Is thi...

How did you lower the side and centre stands? I will have to do this as well. I have already ordered a set of low shocks, although I may be able to cancel the order. How much do you want for your pair? I had ordered Wilburs, but got caught in the crossfire between Wilburs USA and Wilburs Germany - I...

I had ordered a set of lower shocks for my r1150r. Klaus is suggesting I use the HyperPro shocks from the Netherlands instead. Does anyone out there know anything about HyperPro shocks? Are they as good as Wilburs? Thanks, Loree

I started with a Rebel250, then a Vulcan500, a sportster and an SV650. I love to ride, and have finally found "it" - I picked up my 2002 RR on Friday. Hope your wife has as much fun with the Burgman as I've had preparing for my RR

I picked up my 2002 RR on Friday, but couldn't ride because of the snow that was falling :( I took it out for a short ride , despite the freezing temperatures yesterday (love those heated grips) :? I can really appreciate your comments - the bike I traded for the RR was an SV650. Shifting and handli...

I've ordered a set of shocks from Wilburs and I'll post the handling results later this summer. We still have snow on the ground here in central Ontario :x I have scrapped the pegs on my SV650S, so I hope the handling is not significantly reduced. Where did you buy the Wunderlich seat from? There do...

I'm 5'2" and the dealer says after market shocks can lower the bike by 2". Has anyone done this? How did it affect the handling? Any information would be great.
