solution found?

Hi Boxermania, thanks for your reply. I rotated the wheel on the center stand in neutral, but other than the rear brake pads I didn't hear or feel any rough running. I'll probably pull the caliper to be 100% sure and let you know. It's kind of weird: 12,000mls is kind of young for the bike, and even...

Noise from final drive

Hi there, I'm having a problem with my '98 R1100R. The bike has about 12,000mls on it, I've ridden it mostly on long trips with a lot of luggage. I don't know what the previous owner did with it except for dropping it on both sides within his 4,800mls. Also, it looks like the front of the engine cas...

messed with the electrical, need ideas....

Hi, I installed an alarm system and made the stupid mistake of guesstimating cable colors instead of measuring (sorry excuse: time pressure), cramped the wrong cable and gave it juice... now I have a problem: Bike runs on one cylinder until 4,000rpm, then the second one jumps on.
