Re: Clutch Replacement 1200S
Changed the fluid today. Should have done it earlier! First release of the bleed nipple saw a great bubble of air into the tube. The new fluid flushed through showed how bad the old fluid was. Clutch lever as it should be now so happy that seems to be resolved.

Re: Brake service
Just do it as normal. If you have ABS you will not be able to bleed the ABS pump without the actuator software but that just leaves a little old fluid in the system. Not enough to worry about

Re: I hope I like my r1200s
My tatty one hasn't been broken yet but i'm sure that's what will happen when it goes on eBay.
Just had the rear shock rebuilt as well!! I don't know whether to take off panniers and sell separately or leave it complete and ask a bit more.
It did make a great track bike at Cadwell and Donington.

Re: Front wheel bearing seals
Put back what came out, there are i believe four variations of seal dependant on the wheel. There can even be a variation from side to side dependant on the spacer being used

Re: r12s 190/55 too big for you ilmburger hugger? Do this
I think the rear tyre size should be 190/50 not 190/55. The hugger should then fit

Re: Advice on selling
Looking forward to using it on the road and track. Struggling with COVID at the moment so not been able to ride it yet.

Re: Clutch Replacement 1200S
Going to be changing the fluid this week hopefully covid permitting. It has been done but in 2019 which apparently should be fine due to the fact that you cannot use clutch fluid in the 12S clutch but must use a special mineral oil which lasts longer. Using normal clutch fluid will damage the system...

Re: Advice on selling
I'm a big fan of Ebay 'classifieds' for bike sales. Cost used to be something like £22 with lots of pics. Sure, you get texts with "Will you take £900 for a quick sale, mate?" but easily ignored. Whatever you are looking for - add on £300 to allow some haggling. RC8 is a great bike by all...

Re: Advice on selling
RC8, amazing bike, but in my experience, one on which you need to ride fast everywhere to make it work - I figured I would lose my licence or worse hence why I got rid. Doesn't stop me hankering after another one though! Looking forward to trying something a little different. I always hankered for ...

Re: Advice on selling
I put my bike back to standard before selling and recently listed the parts I have accumulated and the only things to sell where the Ilmberger head covers so I think I would sell it as it is - the nice parts could offset the high mileage if a purchaser is bothered about that Very good point, I'm no...

Re: Advice on selling
Great points Phil, I didn't see a PX as a way forward as I was once told to eBay the bike and come back with the cash by a BMW dealer when it only had 60,000 on the clock. I think eBay may be the only option. I've gone with a KTM RC8 as it seemed a little out there which is what I loved about the 12...

Re: Advice on selling
Thanks Al, didn't fancy breaking it really due to space but there are some nice bits on it, luggage, iimerger carbon hugger Ohlins so might weigh up selling those and scrapping the rest. Wonder if Motorworks buys bikes to strip
