Thanks, Gil

Don,

I had new tires put on Friday and the dealer showed me the BMW recommended pressures for a loaded bike. (without a passenger) They recommend 36/42.

Hey Don, It's "Fisherman" here. My real name is Walker Horsley and I live in Atlanta. I can't explain it, but on my old 1200 GS and now my 08 RR the local dealer always inflates to 36/42. In fact, I'm going in tomorrow for new rubber and I'll ask him why. Thanks for all the great informati...

Exactly what BMW recommends, 32 front, 36 rear @70F.. and there is no need to go higher. I have a tire-pressure-monitoring system on my R (aftermarket), so I can keep an eye on pressures quite easily. Over about 3 months I haven't had to add air once.. pressure has stayed right on the numbers. Oh -...

Does anyone have pictures or info on mounting a 660. Specifically does the size of the unit hide any instruments? I know that you can mount the unit close to the windscreen on top of the instruments but this is too far away for me to see. I currently use a 2730 mounted on the left side handlebar nea...

Thanks everyone for the information.

RE: R1200R:
Doe anyone have a source for reliable flashing rear lights that will not conflict with CANBUS?

Sorry, I don't know how to post them.

There have been lots of posts on this subject without too many speciifics. I hope this will help others with the same situation as mine; NEW GS handguards for the R1200R. The short answer is they will work but not without a modification. At the end of the handguard where it bolts into the handlebar ...

My BMW dealer just informed me they were not able to install the new handguards on my new R1200R. Is there a workaround/modification that needs to happen for these to fit?

Ride it like you stole it.

Speaking of farings.....anyone know much about the Parabellum Scout?

I got in touch with Moto Techniques and they are certain their bar backs will work with Ztechnik.

Thanks very much for the pictures and info....without your help I would still be looking.

Does anyone know of a Bar Back that works with the Ztechnik windscreen on a R1200R?

Thanks for the replies. As I am not hearing that the Ohlins totally transform the bike my thinking is to wait until the factory ones wear out.

I'm close to pulling the trigger on a 1200R and was thinking about rolling Ohlins into the deal. Anyone using them? Is there a serious difference in perfomance on this bike?
