Puppies on

Tried to find where to change the blinker fluid and ended up taking the whole bike apart 🤣

Installed my adjustable Paralever arm from EX Motorcycle.

Currently at default length, but I may lower the bike for a slammed look. It could be fun.

I also swapped out my Wunderlich seat for a /5 seat. It’s much softer than Wunderlich.

Now do I leave the seat alone or have it redone in a light tan leather?.

I've been using my insta360 X2 on various mounts, getting the hang of editing. Some really good effects

I never really like the black plastic oil filler plug, so got something that looks a little better. While I was at it, did the brake and clutch reservoirs as well. View attachment 158543 View attachment 158544 View attachment 158545


This is all a little addictive

Great match with the tank cap! Looking really nice.

Thanks yes that was the plan

You should go for the storm valve covers.. Although they are probably pricy there?

yes too pricey + I like the retro style 2v ones. I have returned them for an exchange

 

[Louis Urban GS]

@Chris, I fancied the Storm Breast cover, but the front does not stay clean around here.

The poor value of the £GB has not hit the parts prices yet but I am sure it would on next years prices.

Maybe it is the time to buy

my thoughts exactly..... gets the brunt of the dirt and stones

 

[Louis Urban GS]

So you got carried away as well The grey seems to work better on lighter coloured bikes.

yes, always say to myself "not going to go crazy on this bike" never happens haha

Went to cheddar. This post was started as "what did you do 'TO' your R nine t today"
But now everyone is doing what did you do 'with' 😛

Had a little play with a fender cover... Probably scrap it

 

[Louis Urban GS]

What fender cover? I only see a nice OEM Bmw official fender "Trim piece" in white.

Keep it! looks great.

Thanks, problem is I hardly see it with the top box and I'm always using it... So convenient to have

Mounted my extra lights in a new way.. Was looking at the bike yesterday and the idea just came to me..

Old setup

New setup

I like how it now all falls "Within" the bars. And there's less clutter / clamps on the crashbars. Also now the big lights are 100% level with the frame and in line with eachother.
The Denali DM's just bolt straight onto the DR1's. A good day for the OCD part in me..

So strange because I've been looking at mounting some off the oil cooler mount but I want them higher up above the air duct. Looks awesome. I have yellow spots on my custom bike

 

[Louis Urban GS]

Out with the old

Also changed the 4 sparkplugs to iridium

It took me an hour of messing around with different mounting locations on Bean as I have been struggling to find that 'sweet' spot to accommodate my GoPro and tried something new in this video. I mounted it down low on my crashers which gave me a bit of a different perspective. I also turned one of my image features on the GoPro that always keeps the image horizontal. Other than the fact that the camera kept rolling back skyward I think this is a good start and I will be playing around with this more. Next, I need to really start learning how to get that darn drone of mine to play nice with me... but that is another day. Enjoy.

Kind regards,

Try one of the invisible selfie sticks on a side/rear and front mount Get some very interesting angles then .

Tires! I finally got rid of the 2014 OE Metzlers that were still on the bike when I got it this May. Mounted new Continental Road Attack 3. Spring can't come soon enough.

That's exactly what I'm planning on doing got any pics of them installed? Did you go for the slightly wider rear than stock?

My rears nearly worn but my front is only 1/3 worn.

 

[Louis Urban GS]

Tried my new lifter from Horning. Have to remove the sump Guard to use. But will make servicing and upgrades easier.

 

[Louis Urban GS]

Had some spare brand new yet 20yro spot lights just to see what my bike would look like . For UK riders which side is better? I see most people mount on the L/H side if they have one

Or maybe install 2?
