If you're going for the RWB BCR look (which I assume you are if you got Boxerscot's panels) then make sure you get the right carbon head covers as you have a single spark bike and the RWB BCRs are twin spark. I won't be looking to copy the BCR exactly for that and other reasons (I don't personally ...

The photos lie Mitch, loads of alloy oxidation, rusty fasteners and accumulated road filth and tarnish. She's going to look a lot better soon

My winter project: "Not quite a BCR"

Well, some of you may remember me looking for a BCR last summer and ending up buying a yellow/silver 2001 1100S in need of TLC last September. My project to renovate and improve is underway and hopefully I'll be able to post photos of the current issues and progress made over the next week. Watch th...

I have seen so many people screw up castings trying to remove broken studs. Its not too hard with the right tools and technique to remedy, but if in doubt take it to a professional. Fair comment Herb however that means removing the cylinder head and I don't have the facilities to do that, so lookin...

Advice please: removal of broken exhaust stud

An exhaust stud on my 1100S snapped at the base of the domed nut when I tried to take the pipes off yesterday for polishing. I have replacements however it's steel into alloy so should I heat the head around the stud? Penetrating oil required? I guess it's a left hand thread. Your wisdom please ~ Tom

I know this road well ~ A272 that runs from Winchester to East Sussex ~ and it is a favourite bikers road in the South. The filming was stupid, however, riding like that was criminal ~ I would have crushed the bike, not put him in jail.
