@ I understand that. You can change your rpm range and also change from 3 levels to 5 levels. BT Moto did a video about different things the GS tool device does. I don’t have a M1000R yet but I will be picking up a leftover 2024 soon enough.
@@DongYonderin addition, the GS911 tool allows you to reset the travel sensor on the rear shock after you adjust the preload. It makes a huge difference in the comfort of the ride. As for screen layouts, you can add/edit/delete certain data from certain screens. You can also adjust the levels of the heated grip and their percentage of heat by level. And you can do your service resets, read your engine codes, etc, etc, etc. Well worth spending the money on it if you own a BMW (I have 7 but not all are modern enough to use the GS911 tool).
Sure did. It was a close call. I ended up going with the Rossos after reading a lot of good things about them in the M1KR groups. Lotta guys using them saying they are a great fit on the bike. I don’t think you can go wrong with either, the Power 6 is a great tire
Decals are separate. Belly pan is made by ilmberger. Decals are from Crispy Designs in the UK. If you google both they’ll come right up. Hope that helps!
Did you consider the SLR tune when shopping for tunes? Debating between the two but leaning toward SLR. Love the Vids, helps other owners for sure who are new to the bike.
I bounced between them. Ultimately my dealer had done a lot of BT tunes and had a good opinion of them. I've been really happy with the BT Stage1 and 2 tunes. I don't think you could go wrong with SLR or BT though
Where did you get the black and red BMW logo?? Looks AWESOME!! You have the perfectly rounded out set of bikes between the 3 you have right now for sure!! Buddy of mine just slapped an Ohlins steering damper on his M1kR...its the one thing on these bikes that I see, where it gets some shake that it hopefully corrects...
Found em on eBay. They aren’t quite as nice as the factory ones but unless they are side by side it’s hard to tell. I’m really happy with these 3 bikes! I thankfully haven’t had any issues with shake on my R but I’ve seen it reported. Hope that does the trick for him! If it doesn’t have him make sure his suspension/tire pressures are set up
Same bike just different cosmetics. I like the 24 headlight on mine better, the new 25’s just looks like every other naked bike out there to me now. I do like some of the new colors though. It’ll be a great bike
hey champ, You have to careful showing your speedo, not sure where you are but cops can use it to convict you I always put tape on mine just a heads up
@@DongYonder the tspe is always better than blurring it out in case the cops take you camera which they did on mine and said that i was speeding big time but couldn't book me because they had no proof also touch wood god forbid nothing does but even if something small happens and they get your camera you will not only get booked if you were speeding also the insurance company would more than likely void your insurance its only food for thought than why I also have tape on mine talk soon
Looks awesome. And the sound is great!.
Feels good to watch your videos in such good quality. Makes the waiting time for mine easier :)
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
Gerbing heated gear works great with my M1KR, extending that riding season in the Midwest
I'll give them a look, appreciate it!
Beautiful bike ❤
Thank you!
You should get the GS tools device. Worth looking up. You can change your dash layout and add different levels for the heated grips.
The M already has all the layouts available, I just like the standard one most of the time

@@cj-ef1rp awesome. I'll have to pick one up
Those Alpinestars SP8 gloves are really good. They are my go to. Have you deleted the pair valves and the evap?
Love the SP8’S! Didn’t touch any of that. Might down the road but haven’t been able to figure what the actual benefits are
@@DongYonder pair valve delete helps with the tuning. BT Moto will be able to shed more light on it. Same with the evap delete.
Did you consider the Michelin Power 6? I’m going to get a pair in the new year

Just bought this bike a few days ago. Do your carbon wheels make a funny whirling sound? Is this normal?
Congrats! Without hearing the noise it’s hard to say but I would bet you’re hearing the tires on the road

Not one single corner and you're happy with the tyres?
Took a couple, but initial impressions were I liked them. Have a few hundred miles on them since and I’m still happy with them
what are your views on the new m1000r?

@DongYonder i do feel like people are comparing the headlamp to the triumph speed triple more now
I’m definitely one of them😂 To me it looks like the Triumph, Ducati SF and the new Honda Hornet
@@DongYonder agreed. The design team needs a fresh kick start. They are probably out of ideas.
hey champ, You have to careful showing your speedo, not sure where you are but cops can use it to convict you I always put tape on mine
just a heads up
For legal reasons it’s not me riding😂 I need to learn a new editing program to blur it but tape would be a good idea in between
