Thanks for the reassurance lads.

I have no reason to doubt the dealer, but after all, he is still a salesman!!

I'll keep an eye out for you Yorkshire lot.

:oops: I did! Well spotted. Did we ever meet? I was very active on it from when I first started riding in '03 until '06, when I got rid of my second 650GS. I did a lot of riding with Dazzer and Carcher until Trevor had a fit and 'kicked' all the members that had migrated from 650s to 1150s and 1200...

Barrie Robson had one, but it was'nt in as good nick. I would'nt have said I got a cracking deal at Madchester, but the bike is mint. The only thing that concerns me a little is that when its been sat on the SIDE stand it blows a bit of oil smoke on startup. The dealer says this is 'normal', Ill kee...

Picked it up from Williams BMW in Madchester Tuesday morning.

It was nice and sunny in York, but wet as a wet thing across there. Missed the snow though on Saddleworth Moor.

Centre Stand Fitting

My new 1100S came with a centre stand which requires installing.

Also, do the bolts need thread lock or just require torquing up?

Eyup everyone.

Just got an R1100S after owning an F650GS for 3 years. I'll miss the GS, especially the 70mpg is was getting out of it, but I'm sure the S will be rewarding in many other ways.

Off to post my first tech question.
