Re: getting the itch for another sports bike

Might be a nice sportsbike to ride, but it just looks so Fugly with all those flat facets and not a compound curve on the whole bike outside of the tyres.

Re: BMW R1100S Luggage options

My R1100S had both BMW panniers and Givi rack......I took the Givi rack out and it is nowhere connected with the BMW panniers system.

Re: R1100S

Was told she is a SuperSport version? Higher rear end, yellow shock, Brembo brakes and Wide rear rim.
Yes she has a Vanderlinde exhaust...sounds so good !. I picked her up from a nice gentleman in Coventry area who has done most of the 15k miles and has been all around Europe with her

R1100S

Picked her up on Friday. Just had a 30 mn ride home but it was very enjoyable. It is my first flat twin....very impressed with the chassis and how smooth the engine is (vibrations do not count !) http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc224/obelix04/DSCN1867_zpsygrddctt.jpg http://i217.photobucket.com/a...
