Speaking of....my DiamondHead neighbor has a 2007 BMW RS1200 S with only 1,100 miles.
Full Ohlins with Akropovic header & exhaust along with the performance chip installed.

Beautiful, beautiful bike & RARE I think for here.



Do you mean a R1200S?  Kind of a cafe racer type?  Newer version of the R1100S's that we have at the shop?
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

I really don't know..... [thumbsdown]
Triumph USA wanted to see "HOT" engine printout which local dealer provided,
last Wed.
Awaiting Corporate's response   [roll]


Kinda thinking I am going to be bike less for awhile



Have you gone back to the original map?  What about the valve clearance check and then adjustment if needed?  Anybody suggest popping in another ECU for test purposes?

Send more pics if you can.  Or post, whatever. Especially more of the "full Ohlins" and the Akrapovic.  

The Duolever front is hard to see.  The Paralever rear is easier.  What size rear tire is he running? 190 or 180? Does he have that shitty ABS option on this bike?  The ABS from those days is not like the ABS now.

I will send you his email

The Akrapovic system looks brand new as the whole bike does!!
It has very nice tone, too.

The front end is weird looking to me
Can't remember if it has ABS or not

You should see his 07 750 GSXR.track bike....way bad!!
CF everywhere, carbon wheels tank too I think

Plus 4 Harley's & a RS BMW Dakar type

He has deep pockets :)

Uh oh.
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.
