Yes.. Like they're saying, You can do all this yourself & it is rewarding. When I brought mine home, I didn't even know where the oil went in or drained. Go slow. Read,there's a " Oilhead Maintenance manual" you can download & or print out.. It explains everything you'll need to kn...

Panniers/luggage Lid Emblem Removal

The red reflector & BMW badge on the luggage lids are just on by adhesive correct?
Maybe a little heat from a hair dryer starts the process?
Has any one removed them.
Thank you.

Re: Clutch bleed question

I didn't have that problem, but have read of others that have. "Slightly" grinding the point of the bleed screw fix's it.
I don't know why one would work & not another.
Search R1150R clutch speed bleeder screw, brings up a lot of discussion & photos.
Steve. let me know.

Re: Clutch bleed question

I just did mine in March? installed a speed bleeder. If I remember right, (I know just weeks ago) I think the allen plug unscrews, I went out to check the toolbox but I may have pitched it.. Mine was easy to remove, I might have read to apply a hair dryer if it's tough. Isn't it mandatory that you h...

Re: Where's that brakes flush procedure ?(nonABS)

Forget the shop. Read the procedure thru a few times & you'll soon realize the process/procedure & be able to visualize the steps start to finish. It's really not that hard. Make yourself some wood blocks from something you've got laying around. you can wait till the calipers are off to tria...

Thanks, I ordered a BAX9S we'll see if it fits without changes. I don't think I'll do the wire switching for the benefit of a led in that spot.
