Hi folks, we are very fortunate in that we live in a beautiful part of the world surrounded by some outstanding roads. After the working week we enjoy nothing more than riding our motorcycles to release all that pent-up stress. I understand we share the roads with other vehicle types such as tractor...

Following the recent starting woes on me BCR, today I decided to strip the fairing/ tank off the beast to investigate further. Whilst the tank was off decided to fit the new fuel filter I bought some time ago :oops: After lots of swearing and head scratching Mrs. Big Rob & I managed to wrestle t...

It's okay to be different, I pre-ordered mine yesterday

Thanks for sharing your experience/ ideas folks. Off on me hols tomorrow (not on a bike ) so will get the BCR up on the hydraulic bike bench soon after my return, get panels/tank off etc and start the search for the fault. Will keep you posted on my findings.

Thanks again,
Rob

Hello all, About 3-weeks ago my 2004 BCR seemed reluctant to start, turned over too long before firing-up. Went for a run this Sunday, bike started fine at home but wouldn't start after we had stopped for a coffee . Hit starter and got the clicking sound as if the battery was flat, luckily a very he...

SOLD, thanks for the interest.

The fast idle lever is an extra the 1100S can do without, haven't used the lever on our bikes for years.
Thumb the starter with your left hand and operate the throttle with right hand to achieve a fast idle, a very easy fix indeed

Rob

Hi Steve, I have sent you a PM
