BMW R1200R R1150R/T F800 K1200R R1100R/T R1250R RnineT Message Board

I saw a smoked grey at my dealer and it looked so bland. Maybe the lighting in the showroom was poor but geeze it looked pretty crappy.

looks great. love the dual inlet and outlets. Reminds me of my stock megamoto exhaust.

How far north is the location from like the Throgs Neck Bridge?

Thanks for the info guys. I'm just sizing up what stuff Is available on the aftermarket to make the R12R work for me. Hopefully, I'll have a new bike come springtime for riding two up.

I was looking around for the MV Verholen risers for an R12R. Can't seem to find them anywhere. Do they exist and where can I find them? Thanks in advance.

Can anyone with the corbin seat comment on the height/ reach to the pegs of this seat vs the std BMW seat. Corbin states that its taller than the low seat but how does it compare to the std bmw seat

I'm 6'4 (36" inseam) and after some modification this is now very comfortable. It came with a LOW seat, so I added a Bill Mayer Saddle, lowered the pegs and Raised the bars. Now she fits just right. Can ride all day in comfort and still fun as heck in the mountains. LOVE this bike! Can you tel...

Any pictures of this setup. what kind of riser did you use?

Jay!!!! What's news? I also have an '07 R1200R to go along with my MM. I ordered it with the high seat, and put a suburban machinery peg lowering kit on it. I also have the full Remus exhaust, and just added Ohlins front and rear. I'm 6'4", and comfy as can be! When I ordered the bike, I asked...

Thinking about getting an R12R. Currently ride an R12GS. I've gone to sit on the R12R but it seems that everytime I got to the dealer I wind up on a bike with the low seat. Can anyone comment on the ergos for someone my size. I know it won't be as roomy as my R12GS but I just dont want to be really ...

Looking for opinions on the comfort of the R1200r for taller riders. Looking to replace the GS with the R as I dont do any offroad and the GS is just too top heavy. I also want the improved transmission/engine over my 2005 model GS. I would definitely get the high seat and likely get a corbin made 1...

did you try rotating your bars slightly forward in the bar clamps. that might cure your tank hitting problem.

I had a remus hexacone and remus headers on my R1200Gs. the bike was too loud and blatty with both. Since I wanted to retain the power advantage of the headers I put the stock can back on with the remus headers and it sounds great. I would lean towards akra, i think they sound better, less blatty, l...

Ok, it comes down to this, as a tall guy, I have an appointment to get a Bill Mayer saddle built to replace my Low OEM seat, but then I was thinking I haven't seen or heard any one's opinion of the OEM Tall (High) seat. There don't seem to be any in So Cal to try. So heres the question, any one hav...

I had a 1994 R1100R, I think it was the first year it came out. I loved the bike. I think its head over heels better looking than the R1150R. When I decided to upgrade I tested an R1150R and hated the riding position. I felt it was much more aggressive than the R1100R. At the time I really wanted a ...

I just got my seat today. Unboxed it and is one good looking piece of work. I will post pictures tomorrow. I do have one problem though. It fits very nice and snug but the seat latch won't catch. I've tried sitting on it both driver and passenger positions, leaning on it, dropping it in quickly but...
