Re: Not a BMW

Better than new!

That looks just like my old mans old one. Cracking bikes.

I have had 2 of the later injected Fazers. They really are rather good.

Re: Smelly exhaust! Running too rich.

Are you sure that isn't lean?

Pops bangs, odd smells and flames can come from being too lean.

Check for anything that can bugger up the mixture, booster plugs, inlet air leaks etc.

Re: Wanted R1100S Fuel Pump.

Thank you.

I have a filter/gasket already, and have changed some of the fuel lines after a bout of incontinence. But Yes, probably worth replacing them all if it goes back on the road.

Cheers!

Wanted R1100S Fuel Pump.

Hi.

Does anyone have a fuel pump for an R11S kicking about.

Mine has died and I want to get it running to see if it it is a saveable bike.

Alternatively, are there any cheap pumps that work (I'll probably get an OEM one if I decide to recommission the bike).

Thanks.

Remus Exhaust. Value

Hey all. I have come to the conclusion that my R1100S is rapidly coming to the end of its life. Esp as the Fuel pump decided to not run this morning. The best feature about my bike is a remus exhaust, I was wondering what the approximate value of this would be. It looks to be a road legal exhaust an...

Re: 350lc YPVS

:(, I missed the 2-stroke days (coming to bikes in the late 90s). LC's just look right.

Although the Velocity Moto 900LC has turned my head.

Can't post image from work, but looks a great way to spend £9k ish.

Re: Battery for early R1100S

Thank you.

I'll line everything up tomorrow. The bike has been sitting for 4 1/2 years so I need to bleed the brakes and do a bunch of other stuff before I take for MOT/ decide whether to part it out.

It's a non ABS model.

Battery for early R1100S

Hello again. I hope you are all wonderful. Trying to resurrect my old R1100S. I pulled the tank off and it looks like the previous owner had jammed in a 896 Lawnmower battery. after judicious hammertime of the battery tray. I ordered a similar replacement (Very Very Cheap) but it is frighteningly cl...

Its a very, very capable bike, although I preferred the engine on the Honda Crosstourer. The Triumph explorer engine was a ...
