These are some of the sweetest mods I've seen for this bike! When the time is right I'd like to take trips on this bike. Luggage system looks great. Clutch and brake levers you can tell are high quality. The mirror mod may be the best one. Nice video.
Someone asked about where to get the tank protectors. here's the link www.totalstickers3d.com/en/bmw/20-tank-pad-bmw-s-1000-rr-2015-2016-bmw-tank-protector.html
Great video! Very interested in luggage. Can you do a vid on how that back plate sits on the the rear? Im heading to Germany in 2 months and need luggage for my s1000rr. No idea what to buy. I ideally would like something without straps. G.
The sportrak plate simply uses the same attachment scheme as the passenger cushion that it replaces. You do have to transfer the lock from the factory cushion to the plate assembly. Check my other videos for more info on magnetic mount of tailbag. ruclips.net/video/kiLA1MrAcFE/видео.html
tiger37373 yeah i looked at that also. I think I'll order this gear. Seems like very good kit. Do you mind me asking where you got it and how much you paid? Do the 3 components come togther (brackets, side bags and top bag) or are the sold separately? Also in terms of cost, how much did they set you back? G.
Thanks a lot for the video! I have a question regarding your bags. Hepco states the maximal speed of 130 km/h. Have you experienced any problems on higher speed? Thanks a lot, Evgenij
HI!! Just a little question, how do you find the little side pad. The one under the big tank pad. Did you cut yourself? I can't really find it online. :(
For the GPS unit I plugged direct to the bike harness near the stem. For the bag electrical I install a secondary harness which has a relay wired inline, and direct to battery. This allows full power to be available, no canbus issues and turns off/on with key. Relay is power switch connect to rear plate light.
great ... I'm planning to hardwire a radar detector ... any idea how to get a harness (or what is it called) that will accept the one on the bike? for the GPS mount I used a GoPro sticky mount that expands to accept a GPS or a phone.
BMW does sell the opposite side connector, which has a length of pigtail wire, that you could solder your radar cable to. I don't know what the part number is. If you search on the s1000rr forum you may be able to find a p/n for it from someone else.
Awesome! Nice job finding the number. Link posted for others: www.maxbmwmotorcycles.com/fiche/PartsSearch.aspx?&searchtype=partnumber&vid=58022&parts=83300413585
tiger37373 awesome, sold. I almost locked in some sw-motech stuff yesterday, I'm glad I kept researching. I'm just trying to avoid having to wear a backpack for my laptop constantly. This is perfect, and it'll pop on and off super easy. I can imagine never taking the bag off the plate, just swap it out.

tiger37373 gent!

I don't know that they are on the bike, at any speed. Including at double the speed that you mentioned.
Maybe side car

Stompgrip. Tank and fairing pieces all come in the kit together.
have you tapped into the electrical connector behind the left upper fairing?

I found it is BMW 83300413585, The wires on the BMW repair connector are marked with a small number.
#1 - ground
#2 - not used
#3 - positive
Awesome! Nice job finding the number.

How does the plate do for sealing against water?
I would say it seals better than the seat, as it comes with a foam seal, that you stick on and compresses to the plastics.
