Morning all, just found Boxertrix though it would be good to sign up. I have owned my 1999, 1100S since May 2000 purchasing it second hand with 700 miles, since then I've put another 31k on it, mainly in touring Eruope, from Portugal to Sweden and most of the bits in between.
Can't say it's been a bed of roses owning the BM, I can be very disparaging about it, mainly about the build quality, but it does have character.
It will be intresting to see other's experances with the thing that I affectionally call the HEAP.

Hi cas,you must like the heap having owned and travelled on it for so long and i think you'll find all of us like our 1100's as much as you do but there is so much info on this site so just keep loggin on and i'm sure you'll be entertained!
Thanks for the welcome, based in North Hampshire, the heaps in the bad books again, felt some bad vibs from the rear end, done some digging, rear wheel bearing starting to fail, replaced it, now rides so so much better.
