Re: Self cancelling indicators

i just installed the SM-5 also. I think I have a small problem though I can set the signals as running lights but they are either dim or off. So can you guys make them bright also?

1150R signal light issue

I just noticed this happening a couple times now. I activate the turn signal and blink rate is normal but after maybe 10-15 seconds they flash at a faster rate a few times and then back to normal.

this happens with L and R signals, but not every time and doesn't matter if engine is running or not!

Re: Well... It's My Turn Now...

you just to make sure the lower bag mount in slipped into the mount at the rear foot pegs. If you happen to miss this mount then the bags will pop off easily. But maybe a pin like was mentioned above can't hurt. On my 05 GS I drilled and had clips in the mount so they wouldn't pop open going off road.

Brake Light Modulator

I found this in the vendor section on advrider for $22 and a 3 wire hookup it will flash your brake light in a series of 3 pulses , 3 times then goes steady. It adds a little visibility to our rear ends, not bike specific either. Its bout 20 minute install. I have no connection to this guy or his pr...

Re: another R in the garage

I can say after owning maybe 6 boxer engine bikes that the new water cooled engine is like night and day. Now I like the older boxer engines have a little character and the water-cooled is smooth not inline4 smooth but close. With the near 125hp its like the turtle and hare and add traction control ...

R1150 Final Drive fluid

new to me 04 R1150R going to chang the final drive fluid and I usually replace the same quantity I drain out on my GS. BMW several years back did change from I think from 220ml down to 180ml due to pressure building up in final drive and seals could be compromised. So just looking if its the same fo...
