Re: Main & Dip upgrade

I've fitted Osram Nightbreakers H1 & H7 to the headlights and find the light output better but I didn't think the headlight was too bad to begin with. I also ride around Wales in the dark. Might it be worth checking to see if you've got a healthy 12 volts at the lamp sockets? It'd be an easy fix...

How do I remove the panier locks

How do I remove the lock from the panier so I can code them to my key?

Do I really have to drill out all the rivets to get access?

Smelly exhaust! Running too rich.

My'02 R1100S has a decat exhaust pipe fitted and the exhaust fumes smell as if it's running very rich! The plugs don't show signs of the mixture been too rich however. I'm assuming that the pipe was fitted for more performance but any other tuning work hasn't been completed. What do I need to do to ...

Re: Battery, voltage regulator or...?

My 5 pence worth... You really only know the health of a battery when it's under load. The fact yours measured 'weak' when tested that way would be reason enough to replace it. That and the fact it's over 10 years old is another. Also 20 volts across the terminals when running, that sounds high and ...

Re: 04 R1100S

Hello Rufus,
ditto! My first one too. I love that the run along the A40, I did a similar route but in reverse.
Before you mention it, I've replaced the spark plug cover!
