Re: How do I remove the panier locks

You should be able to tickle that last 'leaf' in the barrel through a hole in the inside face of the pannier body.

Re: Item you didn’t buy ...

... when you had the chance to. Over the years I finally realised that it you see something you want/need then don’t dilly dally, just get it bought. Because if you don’t when you finally get around to it the item may no longer be available. For my 1100S I always intended to buy a rear seat cover f...

Re: WANTED front mudguard R1100s Boxercup

Just for reference - the Rockster uses the same mudguard (give or take) so if you're looking in breakers, there's another option.

Re: 20 years of Boxertrix memories

This was the biggest gathering of R1100S's we ever managed, at the brewery in Burton, organised by bikemad99 in May 2005. lb20 - 16.jpeg That's my Rockster in the middle. :D A fine body of men at Chateau Flash.

Re: G'day. R1100R Scrambler starter.

That's possibly the best looking R11R I've seen. (I really don't like the after-thought oil-coolers, but they seem 'ok' on that treatment of the bike) Have you looked at a shorter Paralever arm? (365mm iirc) Will give you another 10mm or so of ground clearance by 'pulling' the rear wheel down and st...

Re: 100,000 miles

Good stuff!!

My 3rd Rockster reached about 130,000 before I blew the main-crank bearing while at full-chat on the A303. :(

If I hadn't been playing silly buggers, or had chosen to rebuild it, I'd still have it and it would probably be on 150K+ by now.

I hope you're going to keep it going!

Re: Thinking again of moving to the dark side

They're fun to ride, but no better dynamically than a 60s brit bike (heavier though).

I like getting a test ride occasionally to scratch that itch.

Re: Rocket 111

I love that film!

Have you ridden a Rocket3? Well worth a test ride, the torque is unbelievable, and while the handling is a touch ponderous, it's far better than you expect it to be.

Re: where to buy bmw spares?

Another vote for Motorworks.

Dealers are good for short notice items like filters because they'll have stuff in stock, but they'll obviously be more expensive.
