The "Well, I bought it" R1100S - Reskin

Hello Gentlemen -
Firstly, hope everyone had a wonderful holiday with friends/family and sincerely wishing you a healthy, safe, and prosperous 2015.

I've been enjoying my prep since you've last seen it. Many, if not most recall my post last year on my new acquisition. For those who didn't see it, it's right here:

Well, I bought it - ('03 r11s)

Anyhow, with several machines at my disposal I haven't accumulated all that many miles since the purchase and subsequent re-do as I have yet to discover a way to ride more than any one bike at a time, however - I have indeed added some doo-dads.

From a mechanical/performance standpoint I've fitted an 'Lazer' prom, 'Lennies Rocket Sprockets' and an SJBMW 'SuperDuct' and 'Powerfilter'. A very worthwhile expenditure as the gains in performance across the entire rev range are considerable.

I also added a 'Ventura Enduro-Rally' bike pack system which suits my requirements beautifully without being cumbersome or dimensionally obtrusive.

Aesthetically, the biggie is obviously the reskin to the BumbleBee motif body panels which I purchased right here from a pelican. With the black powdercoated wheels and valve covers I think it looks pretty neat! With well under 20k on the odo I look forward to many more miles of spirited motoring. I'll be swapping back and forth every once in a while just for the change but I am interested in your valued opinions so - take a look at the latest iteration and tell me what you think?












best,
J.S.
