Gotta love the Brown Santa!!!

I'm currently resisting the urge to get a Mudsling. Not saying I don't think I NEED one, but getting the OEM Rear Luggage Rack (Part # 71607699528) needs to come first. It's not a disease, just a little necessary customization - and it's really easy to pass that customization off as safety, practicality, or increased utility! I'd put the Mudsling in the practicality category.

i agree its practical, and somewhat utility since because of it, the bike will require less cleaning LOL

damn you farkle disease

Yep... this is a virus. Kinda like Herpes: highly contagious and you cannot rid your system of it. It goes quiet for a time, then... BAM!

I just had an attack and rewired the bike with a new switching fuse box, and Clearwater Krista lights.


There seems to be a pending attack of Wilburs

Now that you mention it, I think reading this thread has exposed me to Mudsling virus

Mudsling rocks. Looks like OEM part and does it's job. I'm very happy with mine and still don't get why BMW did not think of it first...

I eagerly awaiting the release of the 2011 R1200R mudsling, apparently by months end. This is a must have farkle I reckon.

UPDATE: The 2011 R1200R ESA Mudsling fits the new bike perfectly. A great product. A tip for install is to remove the seat, so you can see and therefore get the screws aligned properly in the holes from underneath.

I'm waiting on a darn center stand?? The stand came in, the springs came in, no hardware???? I'm torn between a different seat or an AKRA muffler this month. Stop the farkle madness, AAAARRRRRR 12 = $$$$ of fun
This thread is a bad inffuence but I like it

I'm tempted by the mudsling too. Any chance of a photo?
I just bought an Akra off ebay very cheaply............. But I think it may not fit my '11 bike

I'm surprised it didn't fend off the battery gremlins!

[nylife]

Woo-hoo. Mr. Fedex Man just dropped of a box with an Akropovic for my R1200R. It is amazingly light weight! I will know by the end of the weekend if "slip-on" is a misnomer or not.
