Measuring air box pressure?
Has anybody done this? I was quite surprised the first time I cleaned the (K&N stock replacement) air filter. It’s about the same size as on my B&S lawnmower! So I bought 5 m of transparent hose and rigged up a quick test. I first tried methanol (to get a better reading) and whacked the thro...

[ No! The r1200s is not an option! I think it’s ugly Don't worry about insulting all us R 1200S owners on here who love our bikes. :roll: :shock: :cry: Sorry I thought about that before writing, but then again: beauty is in the eye of the beholder, right? And if it’s of any consolation: an r1200s w...

I just looked at the engine block, and it’s pressure cast. That mold is not cheap to manufacture so it would be stupid for BMW ...

Hi, 1--Only later BCRs had the Lazer end cans but all retained the cat. 3-- Not a straightforward job--Crankcase needs boring out and then if you use BMW pistons you drop the compression ratio, Specialist pistons all increase the £££/$$$.

Exhaust system on BCR? And a few more Q’s
