Re: Wanted - 99 1100S rear shock.

It's taken me a while to get back onto the board with the problems but I have a shock you can have for the postage, if it is any use to you.

Re: Replacing my Nav VI...

CarPlay connects initially via Bluetooth, then establishes a link over wi-fi. Good point well made.

Re: Replacing my Nav VI...

The Chigee certainly looks like an excellent replacement for the Nav unit.

It's about time BMW enabled more functionality on the excellent TFT, surely it could also do CarPlay/Android Auto if they wanted it to/paid the licence fee?

Re: new r1100s owner PhilipS64

I used to route an optimate lead to the area under the riders seat.

Re: ACF50

If you are spraying on (with a compressor and spray gun) then the smallest quantity you can buy, it goes a long way. This is by far the best way. If you are using an aerosol can then put the whole can in warm water first to both thin the ACF50 fluid and also pressurise the can a little. Not sure on ...
