Forgot I had posted this!!! Good little chat.

I like my S, and at the moment it is sitting under it's cover waiting for the good weather. I hardly use it as I work offshore, but will have to now as we only have one car.

I agree with everyone....The K1200S is very nice and fast and smooth....but it ...

I might change my r1100s Boxer Cup for a K1200s..... is it a good idea. I have ridden all the new BMW's and I like them all. I have had the boxer for three years now and had twins for yonks...just fancy a 4 this time..

Any thoughts...

The more i look at the stripey blackpool rock one...... I think i might like it??? Should i seak some help???

BMW have always been expensive (I've got an 03 BCR) so i hope they don't price this one out of the league. Yes a GSXR is faster and cheaper, they also depreciate faster and every one and ...

thanks guys, it wasn't causing a problem but i was just wondering.

I had my bike up on the Abba paddock stand the other day when I was doing the service and i noticed that when in neutral and the engine running the back wheel was spinning..... pull the clutch in and it was ok. Should I just leave well alone or is my clutch grabbing a bit, don't really have a ...

I was ordering parts for my service from motor works and the guy did warn me that if i was changing the pads on my bike to quote him the chassis number, because BMW used three different types of caliper on the front....so be warned don't just go and buy and old pad..... give Motorworks a bell first ...

Sounds like you need a set of rocker covers suitable for a 2003 boxer cup... ie the same as my one. I had to get a set after a small spill and I think they were about £50 - £60 each from BMW.

cheers

I was going to post this a separate item....sorry for pinching your thread!!

I was reading up on a few bits for my 6000 mile service on my 2003 Boxer Cup. All I was wondering is what brand of Spark Plugs do you lot use and what grade and type of oil and air filters do you use.... and last but not ...

I will be servicing my bike in a wee while and i am trying to find out how to set up the throttles and do this balancing act..... is it easy??

I have got a manual on CD rom that I got from Ebay and it looks the right one..... I know this seams obvious..... but what manuals do you guys use as the ...

Never knew it was only a two year warranty... but now you come to mention it you might be right. I have never set throttle boddies up before, but i have changed oil etc I take it is failry easy. I have got a manual on a cdrom at home I dig it out when i get back. Thanks folks.

Hi there,

what is involved in the 6000mile service and how much should it cost from a main dealer.... do I have to go there as my boxer cup is only two years old?? Or could I do it myself??

Thanks

Andy

what's the web site for them??

I had exactly the same problem... I charged the battery and check the HT leads with a spare plug (couldn't get the originals out) and all was ok. Fuel had been in there for a few months but was still ok. Whilst pressing the starter, twist open the throttle a couple of times....don't hold it open but ...
