    1150 Front shock seals - getting old ones out?????

    I only topped it up a bit, trying to judge what I lost on the left one that leaked and lost some in the other one while trying to measure the level (don't ask...) - maybe I added a bit to much, shocks definitely a bit stiffer than before. Will this cause any problems? Took it out for a drive...

    1150 Front shock seals - getting old ones out?????

    Thanks Frannarossi, eventually got them out. With a lot of swearing and little bit of blood....... Next question, how much oil do I top it up with? Will it be ok to fill it up - the excess oil to be squeezed out when fork leg is replaced?

    1150 Front shock seals - getting old ones out?????

    I am replacing the front shock seals - everything went smooth down to removing the old seals. How do I get them out - I tried to pry them out as per instructions posted a while back but they won't bulge. Any advice. Please!

    shock oil???

    Julle maak my deurmekaar....ja, en ek is tegnies erg gestremd. So, watter olie word aanbeveel vir voorste shock? En hoeveel daarvan? Het een voorste shock wat lek en wil albei seëls vervang. Gaan daar van die olie verlore met die proses, moet al die olie vervang word of top mens net op?

    Computer reset? I had a flat battery couple days ago and took it out to have it recharged. Replaced it this morning but hell, now there is a backfire and splutter and does not even idle. Klink sommer heeltemal verkeerd. Someone suggested that the computer has to be reset. Replaced the battery...

    2009 V-Strom 650

    Unfortunately not, bought the bike with the GPR. Must say - very nice sound and bike has definitely better performance than his previous Strom with standard exhaust.

    Krrrr...............  :o ??? That's the noise my bike make before refusing to start. Is it safe to assume that the battery is on it's way out? BMW Gel battery, not sure how old, bought it with bike which I have for about 16 months now.
