Cheers, and here's the bike prior to fitting the pod... the one shown here is a cheap Chinese job (albeit perfectly functional and great value): And another with a custom seat to match the paintwork: There's probably not another that looks like this on the road, and a bloody love it!
I’ve got a factory exhaust mount for when you remove the subframe, if you’re interested Never got around to using it on my bike as I take pillions occasionally.
Haha... actually I was parked outside mum's old house. She passed a few years ago but I sometimes like to go there and just have a think.
Oh, thanks @Sprinter! Yes it is, the Boxer engines have heaps of character and a nice low centre of gravity.
Yes it's very responsive.dynojet,tuned,downgeared,and it's a blast.The best thing is they are a bit of a bargain at the moment
Waiting for the rain to stop and the weather to warm up ..till then I'm stuck on 4 wheels ... not that it isn't pleasent
Well, for a good while at leas, I think I'm pretty much finished with the mods. Some Oberon performance bar ends went on today as well as a Sargent seat pod, and all I really want to do now is upgrade the rear shock; however, I'll probably try to get a good summer of riding in first and then make a decision. I've also decided to keep the rear subframe on, at least until after a weekend trip planned for May. It was disappointing to learn that the bike without the subframe will only take 8kg of luggage on the rear seat, and I don't really want to faff around removing/replacing it repeatedly. Anyway, the aggregated list of mods now looks as follows (I'm far too scared to add up what I've spent): • BMW DWA alarm system • BMW heated grips • Custom black/orange Scrambler seat • Dart windshield • Evotech oil cooler guard • MachineArt X Heads engine covers • Oberon Performance bar end mirrors • Puig front fender extender • Puig rear hugger • R&G tail tidy • Rizoma fork sliders • Rizoma swing arm license plate holder • Sargent seat pod • Unit Garage rear rack (removed for now) • Unit Garage slip-on exhaust • V-Trec brake and clutch levers • Wunderlich sidestand extender • Wunderlich tank pad set A few photos...
