    Wanted - 1150 Twin Spark OR Single Spark Engine

    I have a good engine for sale, I bought it as a spare but have sold my bike. It's a twin-spark motor from an R1150GSA that fell off a trailer while being transported. It has 43,000 Km on it and is in perfect working order. Brian Oh-eight-two 781 five-seven-four-seven Sent from my SM-G970U...

    Panniers/racks/top box/tool box, appears good value...

    These panniers are made by Rudi (a BMW R1150GS Owner) down in PE. The workmanship on these panniers is excellent (and that little black number-plate box is great for a first aid or puncture repair kit) Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

    Steering Dampner ?

    That shake is normal for any sidecar, it's the front wheel fighting against the transverse force built up on accelleration (and being released on decelleration). Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

    Steering Dampner ?

    Do you need it to counteract the annoying 'sidecar handlebar shake' ? We went to the R1150GS Bash this weekend. All the nikers were complaining of 'fighting the crosswind' - well with the sidecar that is a permanent struggle. Sidecar riders need stronger arms to handle those opposing forces...

    Are you going to remove your ABS unit or just leave it on-board? I have disc brakes on the tub (working with the front-brakes) My handbrake is a strip of velcro strap wrapped tightly over my front brake-lever  :lol8:

    ELECTRICS: Mysterious "Earthing" Problem?

    Thanks guys. I've already checked & swopped out all fuses & relays. I'm now checking all the earthing points as well as splitting open the main looms to inspect for any chafing, etc.  Will re-wrap with proper cloth tape. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

    ELECTRICS: Mysterious "Earthing" Problem?

    Hi guys, I need some of your sage advice please... There seems to be a "Short" or "bad Earth" somewhere that have the same components in common - they randomly all shut down together. Has anyone else had this problem? The Indicator lights(Flashers);  Hazard Lights; Headlights; Tail lights...

    I would have preferred a higher ride for dirt.  Maybe I need to get more info from "Woody" about fitting an actuator... :scratch:

    Hepco & Becker Aluminium Panniers 35L + Frames

    Hey Maveric, I'm interested. They look a bit narrower than the origional panniers. I'm looming for a box that can fit in the gap between my bike & sidecar. (I have the H&B topbox.) Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
