BMW R1200R R1150R/T F800 K1200R R1100R/T R1250R RnineT Message Board

Remus claims quite a significant increase in horsepower/torque with their complete system (as opposed to a simple slip-on can). As I have been out of it with regard to BMW for years now, is there anybody here who has been willing to part with the money for a complete system and offer some feedback?

5' 2" former R1150R owner here..... I rode a demo 1200R with the lower saddle yesterday; the new 1200 is soooo much easier to reach the ground from due to it's narrow "low" seat, and the 1200's (seemingly) narrower frame. Not bad!!! (They offered me five grand for my '02 Mille, and an...

Gas, as much as I use, regardless of price, grade, or availability..... is expensive. That having been said, I haven't paid much attention for years now to what one station charges for THEIR gas as opposed to what a neighboring station charges. It is after all.... expensive. So I stick the cheaper g...

Been a long time since I last visited my favorite site. I've since had a Triumph ST, two Bonnevilles, and an FZ1 since selling my much loved '01Roadster. Memories linger.... of friends, of bikes, and of places seen from aboard my R1150Ra. I recently bought another bike, and it may well be the single...

http://R1150R.smugmug.com/photos/6892251-879e59fab8806f5a36617037d4c5134c.mpg Guilty.... I've been wearing heavy duty Carharts and the cheaper indigo stuff; love 'em! Though still funky looking, I look better in them since losing 55 pounds from when this little video was taken. I'm not quite sure I...

Mark, I posted in the R1200R forum with some questions..... I'm kinda hot 'bout getting back into the fold. If I could stumble onto one heck of a 'deal' for either a Rockster or Edition 80 (sans ABS), I could be joining y'all sooner. But that R1200R has REALLY captured my heart. 'hirsty', sho' you r...

Yesterday I got a chance to belly up to a big plate of Mexican food and a Negro Modelo. My buddy and I returned to the car, snapped on the seat belts, fired her up, and watched the drama unfold in front of us. I hadn't pulled out of my parking space when I watched two City Motor Cops approach the in...

Let'em race without helmets!

Ahh.... but they're sooo hard headed. I've been working with 18-25 year old offendors for the past 21 years. Doubt any more damage could be done even sans helmet......

A few years ago I logged a little under 60,000 miles on a Roadster with ABS. I loved it, and with the growing possibility of earning more money in my (near) future.... I want to consider the 1200 w/ABS. You guys have been in the loop, while I've been busy doing Triumphs (Sprint RS & Bonnevilles)...

Gonna do the work of a Correctional Officer (in an adult facility) before I retire.... Better benifits.

Uncle Robby,
How'ed you know 'bout my kitchen table?!?!?
My cats been emailing you?

One of the first things I do to my bikes is replace that "kill switch" with a "dead man's switch"..... more efficient dontchaknow. I like to wrap the rip cord around my neck, as it eliminates the unnecessary waste motion of having to look, grope around for, and reach with my thum...

Ain't no thang.... I don't mind the image hanging out. I don't know as I look any better though, I DO (kinda) have less gravity hanging 'round the jowls now. It's been there for a while (and it's STILL there???). Maybe I'll be back with a new Beemer beneath me when I start making the big bucks after...

Y'all are bring'n a tear to my eye..... gotta love the days (& the people) of R1150R.net in it's infancy. I ride with a buddy who got his R1200S spiffied up with some red on the all black body work; OHMYGOD does it look good! He drives that thing into turns/curves/sweepers with soooo much speed,...

Yo Herb, WORD! Life's been good, they still don't make protective riding gear that fits a 5' 2" bowling ball, and I'm still unmarried. Been thinking about an alternative lifestyle but pant-less chaps on me wouldn't be very flattering (sheep look good with the right shade of lip gloss though). W...

1) What is the sound that our horns make? The sound a cartoon Road Runner made as it smiled out at us from the TV while we sat with a bowl of Frosted Flakes on the living room floor. 2) What piece of machinery does the sound of our engine most closely resemble? (stock mufflers on of course...) Yep.....

Woohoo!

It's a party on two wheels!
(ya think we're addicted?)

It's easy,
I got no womens, no drinking or drug habits, and I live where I can ride year 'round. I got no life, no money, no worries, no care in the world.
I ride, therefore I AM...... a poor biker rider.

(anybody got gas money I can have?)

In 2000, I bought an XL1200S and logged on a quick 38,000 miles. Though I had my money down on a FLHT-S, fell in love with the Dyna Glide Sport, I ended up buying a much loved 2001 R1150Ra.... and put a quick 58,000 miles on it. Then I quit riding for..... a couple months. I fell into a great deal o...

I tried my buddy's XL on..... it was tight like a good leather jacket a GP racer might wear, AND I could zip it up over my belly (!). It felt good. But I decided to listen to reason. I normally buy XXL, why should THIS jacket differ? And though my intent is to wear this jacket in HOT weather in exce...
