Re: City Lids

I've only ever used the city lids on the panniers for my R11S and the standard lids stayed in the garage.
Does make packing enough clothes for a long trip a challenge though.

Re: Site software update issues

Thanks Paul

You really do keep all the IT issues under control so I can get my daily fix of Boxer stuff.
Doubly important now I am going through the old gentlemans' prostate issues, with catheter, morphine and taking more tablets than a pharmacy.

Keep up the good work.

Re: Anyone fitted Barbacks to BCR-how long cables?

Yes The short (GS) paralever arm raises the rear ride height and quickens the steering, the longer arm lowers the rear with the opposite effect on the steering and is what the standard R1100S came with. With an Ohlins on the rear (and front) you should have a ride height adjuster on the shock which ...

Re: Anyone fitted Barbacks to BCR-how long cables?

You can also check to see if you have the standard (long) or GS (short) paralever arm, as that makes and inch or so of extra ride height on the rear with the short one.

Re: Anyone fitted Barbacks to BCR-how long cables?

Common problem for a bars above the yoke and also barbacks when fitted. I just went to my local hydraulic hose company (Friction hydraulics in Telford) and they made me up some Stainless braid covered lines a couple of inches longer for the brakes. Throttle and choke were ok. Venhill do custom bowde...

Re: Strange vibration on my R1100S

Didn't know the boxer engine had a carpal tunnel - is that where the cam chains run?

Re: Strange vibration on my R1100S

Maybe unbalanced throttle bodies - an easy fix before stripping down other stuff.
Worth a check.

Re: R1100S rear frame removal

Heating and cooling cycles help a awful lot on studs like these. I have oxy acetylene gas welding bottles at home and they sort this job out in no time. However, the flame does make a real mess of the surrounding paint unless you make up steel sheet baffles to guard the areas you don't want damaged....
