Lowering our 2022 BMW S1000RR 1 inch! EK 3D 520 chain and sprocket conversion. U will need DDC rode

[@RevItSammy]

the ONLY video that said no need for DDC rod. Thank you!!!!!!!

[@thatm1kguy]

So when making this video, i rode the bike. It never threw a code. I thought you didn't need it, but when i went into calibration for the ddc rode it wouldn't calibrate. So I ended up installing the one i had. I would recommend switching it out to the brocks adjustable DDC rod.

[@RevItSammy]

@@thatm1kguy Brock’s is out of stock for the DDC. You think it will be okay to ride until I get the DDC? I won’t be doing anything crazy to the bike yet.

[@thatm1kguy]

@RevItSammy i wouldn't go riding curvy roads on it but just riding around town and highways yeah it will be fine. If you get that code though i wouldn't ride it much

[@RevItSammy]

@@thatm1kguy still would need to break in the engine and get use to the bike. Won’t be doing any curvy roads. Thank you! I appreciate your time and help.

[@thatm1kguy]

@RevItSammy you're very welcome!!! If you have anymore questions hit me up on Instagram it is much easier to go back and forth on. Im always happy to help. 😁

[@Chicagosrr]

Looks so much better!! Can’t wait for us to do mine!

[@thatm1kguy]

It does look pretty good!!! Ready to smack some people down now! Haha. Let me know when you get all the parts and we will do it for sure.

I appreciate the hell out of this video. I got the 1” bt Moto link but no way in the hell am I doing the 2” link teardown Bt defaults to with tank etc removed. I was going to just shit can the whole process but you all give me faith it can be done with out even lifting rear subframe. Got the center lift and motion pro deluxe suspension service bearing removal tool set so I got the stuff. Might need to see exactly what style 55torx works best to fit up on that super buried upper traction strut even with lifting bike in center. No impact so could get tricky. That helps avoid really moving bike around to break those loose and retorque. Might have to just get one if it gets harry. Thought about running straps to cleats in concrete floor just to keep it steady without lift. That S1000RR is the biggest PITa to work on. Had many liter bikes. But none so fantastic either. Sweet machines and video. 👍

[@thatm1kguy]

That is really awesome!!! If you have any questions on this you can hit me up here or the best place is over on Instagram. I can also send pictures on Instagram so that might help more. It was super easy to do with all the right tools. We almost went 2 inches but thats1kchick actually wants to put an Arm on her bike 🤣🤣 so idk just yet

[@Try2KeepUpK]

I really wish yall had more info on the lowering link install. I have a bottle jack. Will that be ok to like the swingarm up enough? A center jack is gunna be a week out in delivery

[@thatm1kguy]

Only place you need to put a jack is on the oil pan. That way you can raise and lower the bike safely. That jack i used works perfectly because you can raise and lower at very small amounts

[@dute007]

Did you measure the ground clearance after this?

[@thatm1kguy]

There is still plenty of room under the bike. We also have the full six belly pan on it. I know people with 2 inch and like 2.5 inch drops on their bike.

@@thatm1kguy oh thanks 👊😎

[@thatm1kguy]

@verdad2.0 no problem 😁

[@manueltirado5606]

How many inchs can get lowered that s1000rr ?

[@markobencina89]

hi...how would you compare GSX-R1000 with S1000RR? I have 2017 GSX-R1000 and I'm thinking about switching with S1000RR...

[@thatm1kguy]

Depends on what you are looking for? Depends on what kind of riding you like to do.

[@markobencina89]

@@thatm1kguy I use the bike only for road riding and for daily use...not for track

[@thatm1kguy]

@markobencina89 the bmw has way more features and comfortable for riding. It also doesn't take much to make them really fast

[@brandonhollis84]

My 2022 s1000rr doesn't have DDC so I didn't need the rod altogether.

[@thatm1kguy]

Yeah you are lucky! Lol. My M doesn't have it and it's nice.

[@brandonhollis84]

​@@thatm1kguyyeah lol but no Rider Pro Modes either. Is the customizable wheelie control through Pro Modes better than the WC on the basic modes? Cause the wheelie control in the basic modes is trash lol

[@thatm1kguy]

@brandonhollis84 I literally run both bikes in race mode. I don't even mess with the pro modes 🤣🤣 then when I race I just hit the button to turn off all the safeties lol

[@kohalice4049]

how much the sproket nut pitch i know the size m12，but the pitch i dont know

[@thatm1kguy]

It might be 1.0 but im not 100% sure. I don't have a tool with me that will tell me.

[@cloudyskyforever2553]

Sir may I please ask how many miles do you have on the S1000RR and have you had any issue at all? My 2021 has the weep hole leak issue and will be dropped off at the dealer in a week. Thank you!

[@thatm1kguy]

Over 4k miles maybe even 5k. No issues. We did have a recall on the timing chain tensioner. I do hear alot of people saying the weep hole leaks. No problem at all. Im always here to help and answer questions.

[@cloudyskyforever2553]

@@thatm1kguy Thank you and I appreciate your response. I am actually a couple of miles from being 4k. I'm glad you never had the weep hole leak issue and wish that you will never have. Another quick question is regarding the front suspension if you don't mind. At low speed

[@thatm1kguy]

@cloudyskyforever2553 im honestly not sure. I don't believe so but i could check it out next time im out and about

[@cloudyskyforever2553]

@@thatm1kguy Thank you!

[@dogie61]

Looks like the only issue is that they dropped the black one already. 1:20

Ở bên đó nếu muốn chỉ cần có thích hay là không thôi.chổ tui em là một gia tài.ví dụ 1000 USD thì chổ tui + 3 lần con số ấy .là chưa cộng tiền ra biển số.và lên đồ thì mọi thứ chính hãng đều nhân 3 nhân bốn😢

[@dustinrobbins2685]

Dude it looks much more aggressive with just an inch.

[@MRR-qv3bw]

Awesome vid as always👍👍👍 Have you seen the new Gilles rear sets on the 23 M1000RR Comp.? I've got the Alpha racing on my K67 and the original M Gilles (oem) on the K66 but I really like the looks of the new ones!

[@thatm1kguy]

Thank you!! 😁 I saw on the M1000R they are black and look amazing!!! I haven't seen the MM in person yet. I wouldn't mind getting them but they are stupid expensive 😒

[@Rugged357]

Im going to lower mine too, looks good man, also do you need a kickstand for a 1inch drop? I saw you didn't use the DDC link I thought you needed that for it to work properly

[@thatm1kguy]

I recommend a kickstand and you will need the DDC rod. For some reason my bike didn't throw a code but the bike wouldn't calibrate

[@goodboyringo9716]

I wouldn't buy that 1" link if it didn't have bearings. They should at least provide the bearings even if not installed saving the buyer the problem of finding the right bearings

@@425jasper you're welcome. It is well worth the money.

[@reaper_s1k]

I needed the Brocks DDC rod in order to calibrate the suspension on mine. If not it will come up calibration fail. After lowering the bike you should have recalibrated the suspension.

[@NachoVargas781]

how tall is thatS1kchick?

[@thatm1kguy]

5'8. She can touch much better now with it lowered 1 inch.

He is a little scared! 😉🤣 jk he gotta lower his just to stand a chance! 🦾🦾
