I personally would do the seat first. I bought a used pan from a member and modified the foam, took out the slope and added a piece of dense foam shaped like a saddle. Had it recovered in leather and now I have an "eight hour" seat. The only problem is that I go on ten hour rides;-)

Have you tried checking with Beemer boneyard or one of the other BMW salvage yards out there?

Cheers,

Sorry Center and Side stands have sold but short front and rear shocks still available.

Cheers,

I had a factory lowered R12R and changed it back to a std. version. Willing to sell you the lowered stands and shocks if interested. Busy tomorrow but can send you measurements on Sunday or Monday.

Cheers,

Thanks for help with the photo. Man I love this bike! It is a LOW version and a fellow forum member has sold me a pair of STD shocks. Should arrive next week. Those along with the factory STD stands will get the bike back up to a regular ride height. I am looking forward to getting the bike set up t...

I am planning on making a TALL, less confining seat for my 2010 R12R and am searching for seat pan/used seat that I can use as a starting point. Is there any one out there that has a stock seat that they are willing to sell for a reasonable amount?

Thanks,

Carl

There we go..

Thanks!

Just joined the group and picked my 2010 R1200 R up yesterday. Low mileage, black, factory low that I will want to change to standard height suspension in the future. Thanks in advance for all the great posts and looking forward to share my adventure.

Euro Motor Electric has good prices on complete starters and repair parts.
