What modifications have you done?

[scqtt]

Stock rocks!

If Hans & Fritz would have wanted me to have pink streamers on the grips they would have put them on there.

Sometimes I see bikes with so many aftermarket parts the person could have just bought a second bike instead.

I do have a SS brake line on the front of my 03 GS, but the dang thing still barely stops.

My latest modification !!!

Oh yeah - I'm excited!

My latest functional mod: a piece of black electrical tape approximately 1/2" x 1" plastered over my ABS warning lights. Hey, it works - the red flashing lights are gone now.

Man that's a great idea! I have a headlight lite on my Duc that neeeds to go away. THANKS!

Just put Spiegler brake lines on the GS, and Progressive fork springs and an Omega 400 watt charging system on the /6. It sure is nice to be able to run the Gerbins liner, the driving lights, have the high beam on, and still charge the battery.

Gear

Thanks for all the neat thought for gear

 

[henzilla]

I mildly modified the wheels & chassis on my 2000RT to lower the center of gravity & improve handling. (See attached pic) Power seems to be down a bit. Any ideas to boost power would be appreciated.
Steve

'92 K75S came with a ripped Corbin, Staintune exhaust, & Performance rear shock.

Since taking possession, I've added:

PIAA 1100x fork-mount driving lights
Heated grips
Aeroflow windscreen
New Corbin Gunfighter saddle
Replaced after-market mirrors with new stock mirrors
New side stand
Kisan headlight modulator
Hyper-lite rear brake enhancement
Dual FIAMM horns (one high tone, one low tone)
New radiator and fan
Accessory plug

I've also replaced various screws, nuts, bolts, clips and other hardware that have fallen off over the past 16 years the bike has been around.

I tried adding "bar backs" but discovered I'd also need a new front brake line. Decided I didn't want bar backs that badly so I returned them. Since then I've gotten used to the "stock" riding position and am very comfortable on the bike.

Lets see, '04 R1150R Rockster 80th Anniversary Edition

In order:
Centerstand
OEM windscreen
Hyperlites auxillary brake lights

New to BMW's

I purchased an '04 RTL in March. So far I have:

Ohlins Shocks
Bar Backs
Throttlemeister
Autocom W/phone, gps and GMRS
Givi 52 with toprack and backrest pad
Wheelin TIR3 brake light
Garmin GPS
3 Function Meter
Big Mak Tank Bag
Peg Lowering Kit
Passenger Peg Lowering Kit
Sargent Low Seat
HID headlight conversion
Cee BaileyÔÇÖs Headlight Protector
Motolights with 50W conversion
Powerlet Adaptors
Mirror Cables
New Odessey Battery
New Marathon Tires
BMW Logo Valve Caps
Bushtec Trailer Hitch
2 Bros complete system. (Took back off though.)

What I have determined is that owning a BMW is kind of like owning a boat. You just seem to throw money at it for some reason.

On a side note, I hate the Sargent seat. The 2 Bros pipe is stupid loud. The HID conversion is awesome. The motolights where awesome until I did the HID conversion and now they sort of dissapear in the headlights output. And I do not like the Ohlins as much as I liked the Wilbers on my last bike due to a more abrupt response on sharp bumps. But, they where cheaper....

 

[Bullfrog]

Modifications, eh.

Well, I've only added the BMW Panniers, Tank Bag and Touratech's CANBus Helper. I removed the crossbar and padding from the handlebars.

BUT, and most importantly, I've added miles, smiles and dirt.
