Re: Empty Socket

Can you provide the fuse legend again? The link doesn't work anymore. I have a 2004 R1150R. I'm having some electrical issues and also would like the diagram for reference. My bike also seems to be missing the motronic relay.

Re: Starting problem :-(

I'm having this same exact problem. Any new information on this would be helpful.

Wire Harness Sheathing

The wires from the handle bar / triple tree /master cylinder area to under the gas tank had black material sheathing. Over the years this has rotted and cracked.

Re: Auxiliary Drive Shaft

Thanks for the info. I just replaced the tensioner with the one from rubber chicken racing. However, I'm still getting the cold start slap/knock. Any other suggestions? The best I can tell it is coming from the front of the motor.

Auxiliary Drive Shaft

I see this term in the Clymer manual for my R1150R. It is behind the alternator support cover. There is a chain and chain tensioner associated with this that connect it to crankshaft. Is this simply the timing chain? Forgive my ignorance on this. I have a feeling the tensioner is bad. I have a bad k...

Re: Front Wheel Noise

Just to report back on this - So a few hundred miles later and I'm convinced the extra noise is just the different style pads. The whining is still a little present but I've gotten used to it. These pads definitely are better than stock. Just give off more noise like P Jensen said Thanks for the rep...

I was riding yesterday and started noticing a whizzing noise from the front wheel. 100 miles later and it's a tad worse. You can barely hear it when driving without...
