Thanks for the offer johnnyjs1, I am about 6 hr away. If you are in the area of Eastern PA, you can stop by. Well I think I have it all hooked up correct, but for some reason the lights won't come on. I have the orange wire tapped into the brown/white under the fuse box, black to ground, the Violet ...

Macs, the BBS are the big brass screw on both the throttle bodies. On the bottom of the TB on both sides there is a small diameter black tubes, just pull it out and attach the Twinmax.
hope this helps.

Sorry to butt in, here are some pics of relocated fuel filter http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n192/wbowyer_2006/IMG_0012.jpg http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n192/wbowyer_2006/IMG_0013.jpg http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n192/wbowyer_2006/IMG_0014.jpg http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n192/...

Glad I could help DMK, happy wrenching.

DMK, When you order from http://www.adventuremotogear.com/twinmax-p-28.html, they come with the adapters. take your time and do it right. Here is some advise I got from JVB on another forum : I'll walk you through it step by step: Remove the BBS by turning anti-clockwise Clean the BBS and reinstall ...

There is a link on the bmwbmw.org, to download and print a owners manual, it is quiet thick. You can print it all out and take it to staples they will bund it for you. PM me with your email address, I will send you the large file I downloaded.

Thank you all, I did talk to Gene ,great guy, I intend to use his product on my brand spanking new Shoei Multitec helmet.

Anyone use this product? http://www.webbikeworld.com/motorcycle-helmets/visors/raincoat-water-repellent/. I just read some post here about rainex, ect for the face shield. I called Shoei to see if it's ok to use rainex, they said no you will destory the face shield. I like to find if someone used th...

I went ahead and used the Royal purple gear oils, 75W140 for the FD and 75W90 for the rear .
It made a large difference in my shifting, now the bike shift's smooth.

Hi Guys , Is it ok to use Royal purple instead of Redline gear oil in the front and the back end?
because the Redline 75/140 is hard to find in my area.
thanks

Is dallara still around, I really like your set up with the PIAA 1100. Willing to purchase the lightmounts and the brackets. Any information would be great.
Thanks

Got my First BMW a R1150R there a month ago, really enjoyed the experience, because of the staff there. They are just a 20 Minutes away from me.

I will do the driving light first ,I am going with the PIAA 1100X PLatinums . These PIAA's will mount high with either a RCU mount or the GMTmoto mount (can't decide between the two). I will mount the Motolights on the caliper few months down the road. Any more free opinions for the mounts???? regards

Guys help with the lights, confused a little bit. Gmtmoto mounts by the front turn signal and PIAA 1100X, or the Martin Fabrication's multi-fit bracket with PIAA 1100X with a front fender mount. The question , fender mount is better or the Signal light mount? http://www.cyclegadgets.com/Products/Lig...

Thanks both for your valuable help, Ordered the wiring harness from Easternbeaver. Yes Jim was very helpfull, with very prompt email replys. Also picked up the Centech AP-2 box from the factory, yes they make it there , very nice good old American craftmanship. Now looking for the harness to deliver...

Ready to install one, What is the best place to mount it? What size relays shall I order from Easterbeaver? Do I need a fuse holder option? or can I get away with getting a relay kit from Centech. I live 25 minutes from them, I am picking up the box this week.
regards

Hi Martin, Do you have any pics on the install, I am thinking about a AP-2 box, where did you mount the box? BTW I have the same 2004 R in the same color.
regards

Guys some pics of the mod would be great. I am thinking about doing it as well.
