Looks like the right colour...but I can find better uses for £117 :shock:

Thanks for the link tho...I'll save a search on eBoo just in case a random one turns up at a sensible price.

Prep didn't have the ABS, heated grips, centerstand, seat cowl, higher mounted grips, or taller windscreen.It did have sport shocks, shorter paralever arm, longer sidestand, and a 5.5" rear wheel.

So on the pillion seat cowl.

Turns out my friend had it, just hadn't found it in "the loft".

He dropped it round today, so looks like I have the fabled hen's tooth :)

So if I take the seat cowl off my standard 11S it will be blisteringly fast? I don't think so.
Already have the jacked rear with the GS para lever link and no centre stand or ABS and heated grips so identical, apart from the narrower rear rim. Which, by any common sense evaluation, has a smaller contact patch and therefore less rolling resistance - so faster.
BMW marketing BS I am afraid.
