| 7 Series (E23, E32, E38, E65, E66) The flagship BMW 7 Series has sparked the imagination with idea that luxury does not have to come at the sacrifice of performance since its birth in 1977. Well appointed with thick leather, wood trim, and more gadgets than Bond could shake a stick at, the 7 Series is the epitome of a luxury cruiser, and a fast, well handling one at that. |

What's up everyone? The 7 has been awesome as usual.... Only little thing is sometimes it starts...then shuts right off. Camshaft position sensor?
But that's not what I'm here for today...It's the new R1 I just picked up... Wow this thing is fun! Here it is: It's really stable at higher speeds, and in the corners. It dosn't get leaned over as quick as the rr, but feels totally planted. The power is great, but it's easy to ride around town. Keep it mellow and it purrs. Open it up and things fly by very fast. The torque is really nice, but not so great under 3500rpm. No comparison to my RR, and it was geared -1/+3 (!) The acceleration is seriously intense!! I'm stoaked on the bike, I made a great deal and got the extended 5 year service plan, and the OTD price was $11,400. That's so nice to have peace of mind, If anything breaks it's covered for free!! haha (last bike blew the motor) Video quality kinda sucks so I'll have to take another one tomorrow with a real camera, not my phone! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And my Old 600rr: ![]() :rockon: Hope you guys like!

If it's starting and suddenly cutting out, try re-soldering your main DME relay and fuel pump relays
