Thanks Trout, I'm convinced, I'll leave it as it is.

Has anyone changed at home the brake lines for stainless steal ones? VenVsss Yes. Many times. Like most everything else, it's just nuts and bolts (banjo bolts :D ). The hard messy part is bleeding the system. Do some internet research on motorcycle brake bleeding before you start. If your bike has ...

BMW did not sell System 5 helmets in the US. We have too many lawyers. Tinted visors are legal in the US. Check Wolf BMW in Ontario Canada. My dad and I rode there so he could get a couple of new visors. Thanks to all the answers. Biff's , that explains why I haven't found the the visors in the US ...

Are legal tinted helmet visors in the US? If so, anyone could advice me where can I get a tinted visor for my System V BMW helmet?

I allways place something like these two when removing the wheels (pictures from cocosweb.info), better safe than sorry.

yep, you're right. Not sure if they make it for the 1150, but they should. I saw the tourtech one, it's a bit "rough", not as elegant as the bmw one... I'll keep looking.

Hello everyone, Willthese aluminium head guard protectors fit on my 04 R1150R? (these, part nbr. 71607658636, or from some other brand) I've seen them on the Gs's http://www.picamatic.com/show/2009/03/03/11/28/2554034_bigthumb.jpg After a very stupid accident in which the plastic protector broke giv...

Hello there, sorry if it seems simple, but, what is this thing in the green square? what is it for? how does it work? The bike is a 2004 R1150R.

Good pictorial of your installation, and a very nice looking result =D> =D> . Thanks :) Those PIAA's throw a lot of light for much better visibility at night, and you will be seen by others better also. Hella's .. , correct, it gives a definetely better visibility. Mostly on this dark Venezuelan ro...

Hello everyone, here are the pictures of the installation fo Hella FF50 Lights on the 2004 R1150R. We decided to place the lights under the oil coolers (thanks nonskid). At first I was reluctant to make holes on a OEM part, but at the end, in my opinion, under the coolers it maintains the roadster l...

I installed the Hella F550 under the coolers (just to keep the roadster look), here are a few pictures. http://www.picamatic.com/show/2009/02/05/10/26/2012877_bigthumb.JPG http://www.picamatic.com/show/2009/02/05/10/26/2012878_bigthumb.JPG http://www.picamatic.com/show/2009/02/05/10/18/2012748_bigth...

Hello there nonskid. I just got a pair and was thinking about the best place to put them. I'll probably go with the installation under the oil coolers just like you did, but I'm somehow afraid of oppening holes in the stock parts :-), by the way, the bottom part of the oil coolers is not flat, how d...

... when you mention GS system cases, you mean R1200GS, not F650GS .. right?

Hello cruiser, These are the Hepco-Becker, right? The 1200C ones won't fit on the R1150R, but they make ones for your model. Check this old post for info and pictures (http://www.r1150r.org/board/viewtopic.php?p=34765&sid=ee1fc606a29ed62aaf996142fc125422) In my opinion, the highway pegs or the e...
