Re: Luggage rack
I had an R1150RT with top box . Since I had a small luggage rack from a 1985 K100 , that I was not using I mounted on top of lid. Drill four holes and you're set . Caution the luggage rack has a slight curve to it , so find the center put some painters tape down , then put some tape next to it where...

Re: shout out for getting naked

The 550 mile ride home to north Georgia from Daytona is a ride I will not do again without barbacks and a screen . The sport screen is on now ,and I plan...

Replacing fuel/gas cap on the R1150R
Has anyone replaced the gas cap on the R1150R ? I've purchased the SSR cap and want to know what to look for(expect) when changing the cap.

Sad to say , it's the same weekend as the European Riders rally in Burkesville,KY . The BMW club of Nashville,TN ,and the folks of Burkesville KY put on a great hometown style rally. I'll be there.

Re: Full size system cases on R1150R… is it really possible?
I also wanted a larger left (port) bag, and bought some BMW touring lids. They are about four inches wider than the standard lids. I also have the city lids,which are great for everyday use. You may be able to find them used for less money.

H4 led headlight bulbs
Howdy,y'all. My '04 R1150R just burned out the low beam,on the headlight bulb. Some of my riding buddies have suggested a led H4 replacement. Have any of you tried them,and do you like them? I've also been told the Silverstar is a better H4 bulb,but not a led.

Re: tire talk
I also wanted Michelin Pilot Road 4's,but two local dealers found that they were on backorder every where. So in order to ride to a rally,the shop mounted Bridgestone Battalax B30s. So far they are working well. Fine handling wet or dry and not as bad as some on tar snakes. I live and ride in north ...

Re: New to tubeless tires...
Those plugs do work well. I just had a tire mounted(300 mi.) and picked up a nail.After a temp fix,the dealer that sold me the tires used those type of plug/patch and it held up for the life of the tire.
