Re: Lubing driveshaft splines HP2 Sport

Looks like it although I don't remember the one on the bevel box end it must have been there.
I think I would have had a harder job finding a second hand one for the HP2 S than the 12S which is why it cost so much :D

Re: Lubing driveshaft splines HP2 Sport

Yes there was a snap ring on the gearbox end. I know the actual shaft for the 12S is specific and cannot be interchanged with any other as when I snapped mine, it cost £545 from BMW as they cannot be found second hand and are different from the GS or 11S according to them.

Re: R1200S Akrapovic exhaust wanted

In the owners manual you lose 10% of the power if you use the lower octane fuel. Something to do with the anti knock sensors. I always try to use the good stuff but don't worry too much if I have to use lower octane now and again.

Re: Lubing driveshaft splines HP2 Sport

I know you can on the 1200s having done it myself. Its not the easiest as it seems to only come out and go back in to the swingarm housing on the third Friday of a blood moon when the villagers are dancing around the willow by the stream. Took me an hour to get it back in, everything needs to line u...

Re: Clutch Replacement 1200S

I have however changed discs, shaft, oil cooler, suspension, covered the seats and changed the front wheel bearings 5 times ...

Re: Clutch Replacement 1200S

Certainly another way of looking at it. The 12S is all the bike I need considering I have the extortionately expensive panniers for touring, Ohlins for the track days and a relatively rare paint job which makes it stand out. I just don't want it to become a money pit that I come to hate as it lets m...

Clutch Replacement 1200S

Anyone had this done? Mine is starting to slip after a long run. Mike at Overland and Adventure reckons close to £1000. A bit cheaper if you just replace the friction plate but at 107,000 miles it would probably be wise to do it all. This could be the deciding factor in the demise of the Humbug due ...

Re: Private plate problem?

If they want to keep the plate they normally have to put it on a retainer which then makes the DVLA issue a new age related plate for the bike if the original is no longer available.
Its really the sellers responsibility to have a registration plate not yours.
