I have an 04 R1150R with 65,000 miles on it. I bought the touring windshield when I bought the bike new. I wear a full face helmet and if I keep it cracked open an inch or so I don't get any buffeting; I am 5'10." The mounting system is crap. I drilled through the mounts and put long screws and...

I changed mine at 30,000 miles and 60,000 miles on my twinspark 04 R1150R. On my and my wife's previous single spark oilheads I changed them at 18,000 miles. They never looked like they needed changed.

I have an 04 R1150R which I purchased new. It has 65,000 miles on it. I had a rear seal leak which was replaced under warranty; also a rear brake pad came apart and it and the rotor were replaced under warranty. When it was 3 years old and 47,000 miles I had a new battery, alternator belt and fuel f...

We have had six oilheads and over 260,000 miles we have never changed the outer gaskets. I pinched the inner ones twice and replaced them. My present bike has 65,000 miles and has never had any of them changed.

I got my 04 R1150R in May of 2003 and have 62,000 miles on it; I've put over 20,000 miles on it since April. Being retired this year helps put the miles on.

I have 46,000 miles on my 04 R1150R and had a rear brake pad come apart and ruin the disc and am currently having a rear main seal replaced. It is 3 years old this month so I'm having the dealer put a new battery, fuel filter, air filter, and alternator belt on. I have a F650 as a loaner and it is a...

There is oil on the muffler (catalytic converter) under the engine and it has been oily for some time but today I noticed a drip on the garage floor and it is wet on the sides of the engine. What could it be and how much will it cost to fix? (04 R1150R, 45,000 miles) Is it going to be worth fixing o...

I changed the 4 plugs in my 2004 R1150R for the first time at 31,000 miles and I just wrote down the numbers of the plugs from the book and took them to an O'Reillys Auto Store and they matched them up. They had two of them in stock and had to order the other two. It seems like 2 of them were around...

I also have a 2004 1150R which will be 3 years old this May. The battery starts the bike fine but I was wondering if I should go ahead and replace it since it is so hard to get to and I don't want to be on a trip and have it die???????????????????
