Good to hear you are back on the road, I bet the bike is more fun to ride now that you can actually feel what the brakes are doing.

Thanks for the advice chaps. Servo bypass carried out and all is well again on planet Rockster

Hi Kevin I have an 04 1150 rt and mine packed up last week, I've just finished removing the servo unit I used the steel brake pipes to make the loops to connect the master cylinders to the calipers Just got the ends flared at the local garage, sorted out the brake light with a relay driven by the b...

AS above, it would appear that my servo unit has given up so I'm now on the look out for a new one.
If anyone knows of such a thing I would be very grateful as BMW want silly money.

I am based in Irvine Ayrshire West coast of Scotland

cheers Kevan

Thanks Hank, reply sent.

So another Rockster owner in Scotland, maybe we can get a group meet up next year at the Green Wellie or someplace. Andrew No problem Andrew I'm pleased for you and yes a good rub down and a paint will be in order! As for a meet in the summer I'd be up for that, I haven't actually seen another Rock...

Well guys won the centre stand on Ebay, just need to find out what bits it comes with. Hank, I have a diagram of the centre stand on how to remove it so hopefully that will help if I have to get some more fitting parts. Could somebody out there give me a idea of where the stand fits, would be great...

Have you considered the Bos perfomance system?

Glad you are ok mate. good luck wi the bike

...and if it's just a better sound that you're after you can take the can off and just have the cat... I like my license, and if I take the cat I invite the local Police to give me points ... not to mention I would not pass and MOT with the exhaust taken off ... this is Britain :? Who told you that...

Spotted parked up at The Scottish Motorsport Show in Lanark,Sunday 25thFeb. First one I've seen on the road besides my own.

Hi. I have the Ilmberger hugger and can't fault it. Quality carbon fibre and looks the part too. good luck

Riceburner - I just fitted BT020s... I was quite happy with the BT010 in terms of stickyness etc. but found that they would wear out too quickly. I really wore them out to a thread at 10,000km (6,250mls). I try to avoid highways, but you know how it goes, you do drive on straight roads quite a bit....

I did not take the oil coolers covers. It is right royal pain in the a**e though. The biggest problem I had was the rear left belt and the front central belt ... gaaaaa :evil: And I don't even own a tank bag yet ... on the other hand - no scuff marks on the tank!
