The year Rockster came seems to vary, mine is 2003, and is bought in Sweden! Or does BMW change model year at summer? 2003 to 2004 all 1150 engines had double ignition, look at the cylinder heads for the difference! The double ignition made the engine go smoother and use less fuel, but didn't give a...

The servo buzz is cool!

That's the first thing you show to a non-BMW motorcyclist when you should tell them why a BMW is better than a jap in every way

Maybe different countries? I'm in Gothenburg, Sweden...

Is it the paralever strut you call paralever arm in your list? Both Roadster and Rockster has 385 mm paralever strut, the GS has 365 mm! And I don't believe that Rockster and 1100S share suspension, the 1100S has pretension(?) in the front set with a wheel through the tank, Rockster has pretension o...
