Отличная утренняя прогулка! Приятно смотреть за чашечкой кофе!

I loved the refinement, comfort and ride of my bmw bike but the one thing it totally lacked was that strait up punch that a bike with true power gives you. Watching this video brought me right back to when I was riding mine and when taking off it would just leave me with the feeling of "C'mon bike!" 1100cc's of oatmeal....

I had injector upgrades from tills.de and iridium spark plugs. gabe the bike an enormous increase in response and gave it the “oomph” you would expect from an 1100cc boxer. mind you it still had most of its torque in the lower rpm’s, but if you want topend power you’d have to go for an inline 4 😉

@@Oldmanmotoring I hear ya... exactly why I sold my BMW and purchased the Godzilla of all bikes, a 05' Suzuki GSXR 1000. 164 hp, 370 pounds dry and a crazy top speed that I only touched once of 209 mph. THAT bike was a monster

Danke, schöner Spaziergang. 👍Es ist das letzte der echten deutschen Motorräder. Ein Werk des technischen Denkens. Mehr wird es nicht geben, aber es ist schade. grüße aus Russland.

The 1996 R1100 I am thinking of buying has a different instrument cluster? Just one speedometer? Were they changed at some point? Great riding video!
@Oldmanmotoring Жыл бұрын
Think they changed it in 1998, together with the improved gearbox. Same cluster as the r1150r

Mooie bike, wat merk tov de nieuwe injectoren en de irridium sparks?

Motor is onderin veel krachtiger, en loopt veel soepeler naar hogere toerentallen. Je kan dus veel relaxter rustig rijden en als je wilt ook veel feller optrekken

Can I ask what the black, round thing is on the centre of the right handlebar? Ive got one on my 1999 R1100R and I have no clue what it's for!!
@Oldmanmotoring9 ай бұрын
It is a ram mount ball. Used to mount accesoires (gps, phone, camera)

@Oldmanmotoring Ah yes! Many thanks for the info! Last owner must have had lots of accessories as there was another on the front brake reservoir too!

I come from a 167 kg 750cc 135 hp Suzuki GSXR. I want a nice seating position. I don't need race power anymore. But I am I doubt if this would be too slow/dull for me. How do you find it? :-)

Had a 1996 GSXR-750 before. In comparison: this is way more relaxed to drive. It does not have the incredible topspeed of a GSXR, and the power distribution is different. You can drive this boxer 2 cilinder powerfull on torque at low revs. With the GSXR you have to go to the end of the rev counter to experience it's true power. So more laid back driving, and more raw power at the bottom. It is not as smooth as a japanese 4 cilinder though. And I placed upgraded injectors(Bosch EV-14 instead of EV-1), that did increase the smoothness of the bike. But all in all, you should take one for a test drive and see for yourself ;)

with this way of driving what is the fuel consumption km / l? I am interested in this bike, do you recommend me for this or 1150r or 1200r?
@Oldmanmotoring2 жыл бұрын
fuel consumption is roughly 23km per liter without highway. as for the 1150.. abs is a pain on that but it comes with a 6 speed gearbox. 1200 has an entirely different engine. liquid cooled. 1100 and 1150 are oilheads and from what I hear more bulletproof
@tony82362 жыл бұрын
@@Oldmanmotoring Thank you for your answer. 1200 is not the same until 2015? it seems to me that liquid cooling is for those models from 2015. i was interested to know models like yours if they have overheating problems
@Oldmanmotoring2 жыл бұрын
@@tony8236 You are correct I see. liquid cooled came in 2014. These bikes generally have no overheating issues, they can get really warm though in city traffic at low speeds and standing still. BMW tells you not to rev the engine at the traffic lights. But the worst I have seen happen is discolouring on the exhaust pipes and some molten plastics around the exhaust on some RT and RS models

whats happend to your lamps oil end batterie ,problems?

The issue at the start: BMW has an issue where the ABS computer gets turned on before you start the engine. The starter motor can pull the voltage down so it "crashes" and the two red abs lights alternate. After a restart the two lights blinked simultaneously which means all OK. Not a case of bad battery, happens sometimes even with a new one ;)
