Re: '03 R1150R rear brake rotor hot

I had the same problem. The "floating" pads weren't floating - they should move back and forth on two pins at the front and back of the assembly. My mechanic installed the assembly and gently tapped back and forth (on the front pin in my case) while squirting lubricant into the pin assembl...

Re: R1150R - for a tall guy?

I am 6'1", 32 inch inseam, rather short arms. I have installed bar backs, footpeg lowering kit, and I use a Multi-vario touring windshield (the one with the "spoiler"). This windshield is small, but the spoiler smoothes the air flow. For me that is VERY important. I hate wind "no...

Need to connect a GPS to R1150R

I need to hard wire a GPS to my 2004 R1150R. I would like it to be a switched connection, and I hate to cut into a wiring bundle to connect (say, to the brake light wire).
