The bike with the remus fitted does seem a little slower all through the revs but partiucularly at the top end. This could just be because it's quieter than the laser ...

The Motronic box, which contains the chip, lives under the tank. Hope you get the downpipe stud sorted.

Nice Vizsla! :)
Cheers, I'll have a look.

New R1100s

Well pretty far from new really. It's the replacement for my old DDP one that was written off after only three weeks of ownership (not my fault honest guv..).

My R1100 was killed by a Volkswagen and I need another one..

A VW driven by a tw*t who did U-turn across a traffic island in the mouth of a junction without even looking to see what was coming :roll:

Anyway, I was pretty much unhurt but the bike's a write off as the frame is cracked. The insurance has paid up the correct amount amount and the tw*t in ...

Not that I've noticed. It is comfy though. I could ride the thing all day even in this shitty spring weather :)

My R1100S

Pics taken today shortly after the tax disc rattled off somewhere in Wiltshire..

Standard apart from laser cans/chip, tank cover and a hideous (but very comfortable) after-market seat that I've modified to accept the pillion seat cover. The previous owner (a forum member) was too embarrassed by the ...
