Seamless segway. I have only recently sold my long term RS with Keihan Jim Cray mufflers to finance buying the 1100S.

Most of the corners have no signs or safety barriers at all. Visitors here, have a lot of trouble getting their head around that and don't know how fast to go.

Thanks for sharing that, our road signage for twisties depict a kneedown m/cyclist with the words "To die for?" Looks good. What`s the bike you are on? Another cult bike the W800. One the most underrated tourers of the last few years. Along another one of those to die for roads. http://ju...

Interesting post matey, first thoughts were bike looks reasonable, beauty of these bikes is that most things are visible and on the surface things look quite nice but there is no guarantee that things will be sweet if previous owners do not follow the maintenance regime. Thankfully you`re well equi...

The general maintenance things keep coming with squeaky pivot bearings. BMW shore have cornered the market on tiny tapered roller bearings :) Spent a couple of hours on a Friday afternoon replacing the pivot bearings.

Thanks for the replies. Air heads, I can pull apart in my sleep. This is a different kettle of fish. The squeak is coming the top rear shock mount an sort of sorted that out. I feel this bike has spent its life not outdoors, but maybe in a car port in a moist environment and lots little things have ...

Idles smoother now with a throttle body balance. The right one was way out. It is very docile and can tootle along at low revs without snatching. The compression lock up on the rear wheel when backing off in 2nd gear while going down hill caught be surprise. A real Jekyll and Hyde personality.When y...

Nothing like jumping in at the deep end. With Questions ?

Hi all, In the last couple days. I bought a 40,000 km, 2001 1100s and it does look like it is good nick. The ad sounded good any way. Full Remus exhaust with matching chip, wide rear wheel, carbon fibre front mudguard. Buying bikes unseen is a bit of a gamble. Had mate look at it and said the bike w...

Plenty of room :lol: As I say to most people who head to West Coast to ride. Don't crash. Nobody is coming to get you and there is no mobile coverage. :shock: Most of the corners do not have speed signs. Far too many corners to post. http://justdan.smugmug.com/Bikes/Kawasaki-W800/i-mmgGk5G/0/L/IMGP1...

As twinspark has mentioned. Airheads are agricultural and that is apart of their charm. For me, I thought it was time move in a new direction away from airhead. Much to the shock and horror of my friends. Who thought I never sell the RS.

The roads are stunning to say the least. A couple of weeks a go. I did a 650 km day around thousands of corners and only seen about 20 cars for the day. Magic.
