BMW S1000RR (20-25) Fully Adjustable Lowering Link Installation

[@BrockDavidson]

Please see long description: This video is old, so the instructions (brocksperformance.com/content/Instructions/S1000RR/998155.pdf) are updated on the site. You MUST relocate the voltage regulator, regardless of how much you lower the bike. Not moving the regulator can lead to suspension collision issues, damaging the link and potentially causing an unsafe situation.

[@noodlezdotcom]

whats the collision issue you are referring to? in your video lowering 1 inch shows it has enough clearance to be left alone without relocating components

[@BrockDavidson]

That's no longer the case. As various bike settings and rider/passenger weights will allow interference. Do not operate the bike without following the UPDATED instructions on our Web site in the product overview tab: brocksperformance.com/search.php?search_query=240851

Why hasn't this channel Blown Up yet! I can't understand why. So much outstanding content!

[@jediknight1294]

Because its technical and detailed not 'look how cool this is how fast we go' There are relatively few out there that do that and blow up Jeremy at Fasterproms is one but he had Cletus help a lot. If you like seeing a low money garage builder a guy with a channel called Rauf Cars has been pretty good fun to watch though he isn't doing drag builds. Its just good clean LOW BUDGET econoshitbox modding (like 300 quid for a new engine type low budget)

Brock, when are you getting more penta-carbon full exhaust for 2017+ Gsxr1000?

[@BrockDavidson]

Next week, but if you want one, you should place your order now. It puts you in line in our system. If you wait for the zeros to become + you will be too late. Once we fill all of the backorders, we usually go negative... So the shipment comes in and goes out and in stock quantities stay at zero.

[@erikalvarez4178]

We pre-ordered like 2 months ago. I went through a local shop here. We ordered the full pentacarbon in black and a sprint filter. Thank you.

[@theparkeys2013]

I have a random question Why are there no driveshaft bikes in racing and whats the downfall to trying to build one (race bike with drive shaft). Thank you

[@BrockDavidson]

Race bikes require frequent gearing changes to perform their best. Drive shafts are not gearing change friendly. Drive shafts also make the rear of the bike raise up under hard acceleration. Drive shafts are maintenance free and great for touring...not racing.

@Tom, thank you. We sort of stepped away from the H2 market a bit after 2015. The H2 market too crowded for so few bikes and doesn't make business sense for us to mess with any longer. Don Guhl has plenty of dyno time and maps to match our products.

[@davidwilson8010]

Ok bro all you need to do is to move the do it peg arm and you go to go and your hand will have more clearance to work

[@wild_Rider_83]

Great Video and very useful. Am I right in thinking that it's the same procedure to lower a BMW S1000R? There are literally No Videos on here when it comes to the Single R but quite a few of the double RR. I've basically just purchased a Lowering Link for My 2019 S1kR and I'm just basically looking to lower it maybe an inch or two at the most. Being a 29" Leg can be slightly difficult. Cheers 👍

[@BrockDavidson]

The Single R link is much easier to install. Check out our instructions here: bit.ly/3eBkaMQ

[@aliatwi1300]

In order to set it back to stock height we have to turn it counter clockwise but I couldn’t turn it ! Do we have to press the shock?

[@BrockDavidson]

It should turn. If it doesn't...it might already be bent. But yes, if you have too much resistance, unbolting it or raising the bike to remove pressure might help ease adjustment. Please use our blue support button to speak live about your issues.

Annoying the stock rear shock seems like a Dumber idea with the cheaper to mass produce built-in reservoir and adds to clearance & aggravating greif for stupid small tolerances to the battery tray subframe and every other nearby component unlike a aftermarket Remote reservoir shock absorber on the shock zip ties or clamps miles away from the undertray.

As long as you want to go slightly higher, yes.

No

[@h1bertojr]

@@BrockDavidson I went to the BMW dealership but they don't have at stock. Could you please make a video showing us the original one, how they work? Thank you so much!

[@BrockDavidson]

There is nothing to show. The stock link has minimal travel, primarily in the taller direction - that's why I invented our lowering link....for those who wish to lower the height of the bike. We also offer adjustable kickstands since the stock side stand will no longer function properly if the bike is lowered.

[@jaylude22mkay]

Is there any concern for the voltage regulator overheating with the reduced airflow in its new position?

[@BrockDavidson]

I don't like the new placement, but it's all we have right now. For constant street use, drilling some vent holes in the side of the battery tray would be a good idea until we finish our relocation kit.

[@SuperSneakySniper]

​@@BrockDavidson Has there been a relocation solution to this problem yet? Perhaps a kit or something? Havent seen any on the website

[@BrockDavidson]

@SuperSneakySniper I'm not sure what you mean? Our kits work well as long as our instructions are followed 100%. There is no "solution" for BMW not allowing for the bike to be lowered, so this is the best we have to offer.

[@SuperSneakySniper]

@@BrockDavidson Oh i was referring to the relocation of the voltage regulator. It doesnt look like it gets much airflow in the battery tray, and your previous reply mentioned a possible relocation kit, so I was just wondering if the relocation kit might be coming sometime soon?

Sir I have one dought since long time. which bike is quicker to reach 0- 217.5 Mph (350 Kmh) ? Yours H2 with Brock's Performance Package or MotoGP bike? I know that H2 with yours performance package did a top speed of 226.9 Mph. But which bike reaches 0- 350 Kmh quicker? Please, please answer me Sir.

[@BrockDavidson]

No idea as I do not have any Moto GP acceleration data. But this article www.mcnews.com.au/motogp-bike-acceleration-figures/ believes a GP-18 runs a 8.99 second 1/4 mile...which is exactly what we ran in the 1/4 mile. Looks like it would be a good race, but there is no doubt the H2 is unquestionably the biggest bang for the buck, lol.

Do i need to change my shock if I go 3”?

[@BrockDavidson]

If you try to lower the stock length shocks too much, the linkage will bind and you will have zero travel.

[@tyethekid]

@@BrockDavidsongot it. so if i sit my link to 3” lower in the rear the oem shock will work still i just wont have any travel of suspension correct?

[@BrockDavidson]

@@tyethekid The end of the video shows a 3" drop using the stock shock and the associated clearance problems. Our bike was street ridden in this manner and the only damage done was to the inner fender when the the suspension compressed over bumps - the shock works fine, the minimal clearance between the tire/inner fender and bottom of the tail section is the real problem.

[@TheBrandonAF]

@@BrockDavidson Any idea what the clearance comes too after lowering? My entire neighborhood is riddled with the speed bumps, the city shows 2.5 - 3.5 inches (6 foot parabolic ramps I think). Would a 1.5 inch drop clear this?

Is this bad for the motorcycle?

[@BrockDavidson]

Not if performed correctly. Of course, if the bike is lowered, cornering and ground clearance becomes more of a concern for the rider.

Thank you, I’m getting one so wanted to know. Im 5,5 and I got in my friends and I was on my toes. So it would he best to lower the back or?
