..I located the ballasts where the horn usually hangs off the front subframe and relocated the horn down inside the fairing. Its been on for a fair few miles now with no problems. Malc who I bought the kit from suggested this location and it did make the installation quite simple. HTH Regards Peter.

Not surprising really, K1200s is the new Hyperbike that will be anounced officially later this year. My Dealer says 1200 RT later this year,Next year production lines will concentrate on the new IL4 (K1200S) and 2006 will see the long awaited R1200S, Guess we'll have to wait and see!! Peter.

Bob,
I'll have the full set please, 2003 non ABS R1100s. Where do I send the Cheque.
Regards Peter (Former Buell owner, Just so you know who I am)

..MRA do an interesting looking screen, Adjustable for height and angle. Saw one on an S in Hawes a few weeks ago looks well made and could be worth further investigation. Costs around £105 though.

Peter.

..Jason I use a Zero Gravity smoked screen, Its been on both my 'S's so must have done over 45000 miles and its still in fair condition. TTS over at Silverstone were the importers but I did hear that it was no longer available. Always worth a phone call though.

Peter.

..Andrew,
As far as I know all sport/BCR variants use a front shock length of 330mm The rear is the one that may change. Early sport models had a long paralever arm (385mm) and a shock length of 314mm and later models have a 365mm para arm and a 310 rear shock length ,HTH Peter.

Bike goes in on the 5/4 for a new set off forks and lower brace. BMW are well aware of the problem with the finish on the forks (They replaced them on my 2000 S under warranty and are now going to do the same with my 2003 S From previous experience I know that a quick coat of Hammerite lasts much lo...

..Sounds good to me Paul, I'll be doing my own servicing in future after giving?? ASTLE the best part of £300 for a 12000 mile service and new rear pads. I think I may have been charged for last weekends sarnies and coffee though. Works out at around £50 per hour labour, Wish I could earn somewhere ...

..Used to ride pillion many many years ago and I do think the secret is in knowing and trusting what the rider will do. I do recall nodding off whilst pillioning down to Cornwall on an overnight trip with a rider whom I would trust with my life.
Peter.

...Well as your asking, A large G&T would go down very nicely thankyou. Thats the only spirit I enjoy. Dare say I'll sink a few pints of Lager tomorrow evening though.
Peter.
