Hope it works out for you [-o< Stories like these are not unheard of.....I sold my F800S with 430km & every accessory on the BMW brochure. Just so happened that the right person came along (obviously his planets were well aligned that day 8) ) and i was in the mood to sell. Enjoy the R! E

Up until today - i had no idea what a "flooterset" was. Now i know; its a posh word for foglight! Well, after reading Don's in-depth review about additional lighting, i decided to order a set of these from Wunderlich: http://ellieeis.smugmug.com/photos/433472284_PkWH9-L.jpg In my opinion, ...

In 10,000+ kms, i've experienced the ASC only once. It feels like a sudden and effective loss in power right up until the moment the rear wheel finds some traction; certainly not obtrusive & IMHO a welcome addition to the bike. I have never purposely tried to coax the ASC to activate - but even ...

I was looking around for the MV Verholen risers for an R12R. Can't seem to find them anywhere. Do they exist and where can I find them? Thanks in advance. Here is the link: http://www.mv-motorrad.de/lshop,showdetail,6588,e,1224768682-6591,001.1161942739,90130,,Tshowrub--001.1161942739,.htm I have t...

I was very happy with my road attacks as well - but i decided to try a different tire just for the experience. My front was completely worn out after 10,000km (and quite a few times @ the local go-cart track). The rear still had about 2 or 3 k left. So last Sunday i had a pair of Pirelli Diablo Stra...

I'm 6'1" with 34" inseam. The bike is great (with the tall seat) and even better with the Russell custom saddle. I usually have issues with my kneecaps on long rides - but none of these problems have (ever) surfaced with the R. So it would seem that the ergonomics are perfect for people of...

I had them on my F800S & K1200R Top class product. I have quite small hands (size 7 in the BMW glove), so reaching for the clutch/brake levers on the K12R was impossible (and downright dangerous) The Vario levers solved all the problems & they are 100% adjustable. I would let a BMW technicia...

You can always go with Corbin. But their pan may OR MAY NOT fit your bike perfectly. I had a corbin for my R1200RT. It was stiff to install at first - but worked well once i learned how to click it into place properly and the mechanism loosened up. There are many people that had bad experiences with...

....this is one expencive saddle.......on the other hand i am willing to pay for comfort (original standard seat is just torture after about 150mi).....i think i'll start with a little cheaper choice (Rick Myer)....arround $700 or so with all taxes......although Russell may look and feel like a gre...

Thanks

I will be looking into this option...
I'm also about 6'1" so the height should be fine..

Pleasure.
If you want any pics with me sitting on the bike, so you can guage the height & legroom - let me know.

When I go to the Russell website, which options did you pick? I assume: S2 Price Code: Leather Duo $550 Hi, here are the exact options i chose: S3 dual saddle all leather = $710 Heated seats = $290 Rain cover = $40 Shipping = $105 (USPS express shipping to the UK) Pattern = rectangle ($0) Total: $1...

After a long wait, i finally received my day-long saddle. Workmanship is absolutely top-notch. The leather smells great, the heating elements warm my tush & the S/O is over the moon with her new "perfect fit" throne. She even said that its almost as comfy as the Goldwing - and i think ...

For my long(ish) trips i carry one of these: http://www.wingstuff.com/pgroup_detail/388_Air_Guages/20123_Mini_Tire_Compressor_300PSI_from_any_12V_Source/?goto=%2Fpgroup_list%2Fgl1800%2F388_goldwing_Air_Guages%2Fdes%2F and one of these: http://www.wingstuff.com/pgroup_detail/536_Tire_Repair/3915_Famo...

I'm 6'1" (34 inseam & use the tall seat) and find the sport screen MUCH more comfortable than the BMW touring (tall screen) There are even times when i ride with the visor open (with glasses on, of course) & i really enjoy the nice clean air around my head. I tried riding with no screen...

I just ordered a 2009 Black R1200R with ABS, heated grips, computer, TPM, ASC, sport shield, clear lenses, bag mounts, low seat, lowered suspension with a centerstand. BMW must be offering shorter centerstands now because this wasn't an option before. I had to sell my 2007 R1200R last year but I sh...

I found the following article in a UK magazine: http://ellieeis.smugmug.com/photos/359974121_LBABr-XL.jpg Since i have practically melted my Conti road attacks after numerous (mini) track sessions and some pretty hard road riding, i was looking for a good "winter" tire. The conti's were fa...

I thought i would celebrate my 100th post by introducing the newest member of the family: "Lady" Goldwing - named after my beloved first dog http://ellieeis.smugmug.com/photos/354928282_y8wDm-L.jpg http://ellieeis.smugmug.com/photos/354930127_3zMHo-L.jpg http://ellieeis.smugmug.com/photos...

Happy Birthday :D Very nice diary. I would love to tour the states one day - and get away from some of the loony drivers over here! Shame i can't pack my LT in to my luggage and take it over there... ;) Anyway, I also celebrated my birthday last week. This morning, as a present to myself, i did this...
