I put the new Monster in my garage, but won't really have a chance to ride it and start the break in until this weekend. Pretty excited though. I think I will enjoy having two bikes that are fairly different. By the way, as I rode my Roadster to work this morning I reminded myself of how much I enjo...

Thanks to all for the input. I decided to buy a 2006 Duc S2R 1000 (silver/black). I bought into the comments that the R1150R and the R1100S are too similar. The Ducati is a very different ride and should be a blast for shorter rides. The R1150R is head and shoulders above the Duc in terms of longer ...

2nd BMW in the garage (r1100s)?

I currently own a 2004 R1150R which I really enjoy. I am considering buying a second bike and am seriously looking at a 2004 R1100S in Manderine/Grey with about 10k miles on it. It is at a dealer and my guess is it would cost me somewhere in the mid $8k's. As an alternative to buying the R1100S, I a...

Thanks for all the info. After much consideration, I decided to go with the Wunderlich fender and it's at the body shop for paint. Pick it up tomorrow. Was hoping it would look good, and now am pretty confident it will after seeing dilligaf's pics of his in black. I'll post a pick when it's on the b...

Thanks for the tip on the BMW Santa Cruz site. For some reason the Wunderlich catalog won't download for me, but I I'll follow up. Is the fender I mentioned in there? Regarding color, the bike is Ferro Metallic (basically, blue). Sorry.

R1150R Front Fender Replacement

I recently bought a slightly used 2004 R1150R. Really enjoy the bike but, like a few others that have posted here, would like to change out the stock front fender to something a bit more conventional. Any suggestions as to any aftermarket products that can be purchased here in the U.S., or other BMW...
