Nicely modified 1090! The device to quiet your front fairing area seems like something I might want to add. I agree on the dash and electronics. Simple is better! I had a Pan Am and the electronics were dicey. I had quite a few issues where the bike wouldn't start, so I couldn't trust it to be an ADV bike. Harley bought it back from me. There was a 1290 SAR that had been traded in for a Pan Am and had sat on the floor for around a year. So I bought it. I'm putting some Touratech upper crash bars and Cyclops Aux lights on it as it had full Touratech luggage. My right side case is smaller but it won't affect me too much because I tend to run soft luggage and lane split traffic in the SF Bay area. Great video, thanks for posting.

I also ride the 1090 S and really enjoy it. I do not need ABS for cornering or all the electronics in the 1290. It seems that even though you bought all the optional extras you need the R version :) good review.

I already bought full suspension upgrade and wheels. So soon it is going to be better than R :)

Nice, i replaced my front master cylinder with a 1190 brembo master, had to also do brake lever , brake switch and brake line. However this is a big improvement in braking. Also replaced fuel pump and battery with a Quantum fuel pump and earth x battery. Since i had the tank off to work on replacing the front master I installed a Rottweiler airbox and block plates velocity stack etc. Much smoother power delivery and more power :) Also running TKC 70's not bad so far took off the TKC 80's first. Was running pirelli scorpions. Like em both but tore up the scorpions in 3000 miles or less

Interesting! My bike is in shop now to complete upgrade that I started last year. I have rear shock form 1190 R and front shocks from 1090R installed along with 21/18 wheels on TKC 80 in addition Akrapovic muffler. Hope I will get it from service this week and then will post video on complete upgrades.
