Just purchased first BMW...an R1150R! It's a winner!

2002 R1150R with 10,000 miles. Parabellum windshield, Corbin ostrich skin seat, and ABS.

The windshield does an excellent job (6'3", 205), but I removed it and will be installing a Givi A146...probably put the touring screen back on when it gets chilly.

The Corbin is awesome! Very comfortable...highly recommend it.

The ABS I have not figured out. I start the bike according to the owner's manual, but sometimes the light stays on (left side). If I restart, it goes off. I must be doing something wrong...

that light will stay on until you get going a few feet. Congrats on the new bike.

congrats on the bike.

turn the key on without squeezing the brakes (applying brakes will prevent the computer from completing its self test). the other light will flash until you reach 3 mph (wheel sensor test).

have fun.
