Just picked up a 2014 single R!

My first BMW and first in-line 4.

Who said in-line 4s don't have torque.. this has plenty of grunt in low rpm. Love it!!

Looking forward to be part of this community.

Regards,
Duke

Congrats. I picked up a 2015 over the Winter and just took it out Saturday for a first "real" ride after having the tires replaced. So far, so good. :laugh:

Congrats! Great bike, I had a 14 and just switched to a 16 RR. If you plan on modding it I recommend an Ohlins steering Damper, full Ti exhaust system (I had Akra), and set your suspension. Makes the bike handle and perform so much better! Not bad stock, just so much more dynamic afterwards!

mods

Before fun, the first few "necessary" mods I am considering are as follows:

1. ABS pro - already done
2. Radiator/Oil Cooler guard - considering COX
3. Engine covers - considering GB (lots of pros/cons in forum..thx)
4. Frame and Axle sliders
5. Tidy Tail - evo tech or Motodynamic
6. Air Horn
7. Radar mount

Future:

Full exhaust

Woodcraft for the axle and frame sliders. GB racing covers are the best and look good. I wouldn't have worried about the abs pro it only works in rain and sport anyway. Good purchase I had a crack on the R but didn't do anything for me compared to the RR
