I'm interested in attending a Tech day. Are there any planned in the Central New York or Finger Lakes regions? Thanks

My left mirror has vibrated more than the right since the day I bought it. 10,000 miles later, it's still doing it. Yes, I've had both the 600 mile and 6,000 mile service done by the dealer. No difference in the mirrors after service.

Had a great two days riding the Adirondack roads this past weekend (9/22 & 9/23). I can highly recommend 28N East of Long Lake. It has some great riding (twisties) for about 30+ miles. Also spent time on Route 30 & Route 3. Both very scenic roads without a lot of traffic. Total riding just u...

I thought the "A" just described a bike with ABS.

Check to make sure that you have pushed your gas filler lid completely down. I had a "gas smell" and it turned out that I wasn't closing the filler cap all the way.

I am looking for more wind protection and found this link: http://home.mindspring.com/~jabrooks/BMWR1150R.htm In the Windscreen section, it lists several fairing manufacturers that I would like to get more info about. Specifically, Haensle, Gimbell and Fallert Does anyone have contact info for US di...

I owned a Kawasaki XR7S (late model zephyr) for several years. Last year. I traded it in for a BMW R1150R. So, I'll give you a few comments. I'm 6'-3" and both bikes fit me very comfortably. I also test rode the Rockster and was comfortable on that. With the BMWs you can choose different seat h...

I have an extra tan seat for my R1150R. I bought it with plans to have it recovered in black. However, I found another seat that was already black, so I now have no use for it. Let me know if you are interested.

I bought my 2004 R1150R w/ABS for $10,700 in April of this year.. They also had Non-ABS for about $9,600

Yes, please send me the link. thanks Dan S.

I now have about 4500 miles on my 2004 R1150R and the tires need replacing. When I called my dealer for prices I was shocked. Bridgestone and Metzlers (ME6?)were both priced about the same. The dealer wants $330 dollars for a front and rear package. Now here is the best part, he wants $120 to change...

I'm not sure which gloves to recommend, but I can tell you ones that I would never buy again... ICON gloves turned my hands black everytime I rode in the rain or even heavy fog.. I assumed that this would stop after they got wet a few times, but it didn't. Great gloves for "dry" riding, bu...

After a 20 year period with no bike, I got back into riding again last year. My "get back into riding" bike was a ZR7S Kawasaki (750 CC and about the same weight as the R1150R).. I bought it and rode it for 2,000 miles. Then I traded it for an 2004 R1150R. My reason for going with the Kawa...

I bought a new Roadster this spring (04 model). I now have 3500 miles on it. In my first 600miles, I didn't observe any oil consumption. Since my 600 mile service, I do seem to use a very small amount (I've added about six ounces ). I don't know if this matters, but I followed the "break in&quo...
