No CEL!, BMW makes it easy, it could be kind of tight spaces under the seat and fairings, but having zip ties makes it easy with all mods. After 5 years owning the bike and 25,000 miles later, these same signals are still on and still working 👌
Technically your suppose to but I was able to do it without fully clearing up the space. Elbow grease, 1 man, and plenty of time to fit the headers in, 2 man is much easier, you will be glad it’s a 1 and done job and well worth it! Good luck!
I got it off aliexpress, I’ve been busy lately and haven’t fully completed the build so I can’t say how all the parts will fit and flies, I doubt I’ll be able to share how strong the frame is in a crash 😂 but full build video is coming soon I promise!
Your video says can't use touch screen. That's funny, cause I have a screen protector on my phone. I have a waterproof case on my phone, so that also covers screen with plastic. And when I put my phone in this bag, with my riding gloves... or bare haned.... I can still use touch screen through this phone holder. Only tome I can't is when I have my leather winter gloves on. But I couldn't do it with those outside of this anyway..... 🤷♂️ I'm just not having the same problems other people are with this bag I guess. For me it works great.
@@Wark0re I see, been awhile for me too, RL and rising season and other hobbies, going out and touching grass since covid is a good change, any interesting games out there that’s fun?
I see alot of complaints on reviews and videos for this bag saying it flies off. But, I've had mine for over a month, I've traveled from my home (oklahoma city) to dad's home (north of tulsa) traveling on the turnpike with speed limits of 75mph and 80mph. I would at times when passing get into the low triple digits briefly. 105, 110... this bag has never moved on my bike. I took the top magnet and moved it to the left flap, the bottom magnet I moved to the right flap. I don't use the top and bottom flaps so I doubled the magnet on each side. I've gone to the store amd bought a 2ltr of mt dew and carried that home inside the bag. At speed, taking corners, whatever even with that bulk/weight the bag never moved. It's my opinion that when a bag flies off, it's either not shaped correctly for the tank, or its mounted wrong. High on tank right in path of wind. I mount mine so that the small pouch is basically touching my seat. So it's as far back on the tank as possible. This takes it out of the wind more, also allows my thighs to kind of cradle it as my knees are gently against the tank. However anyone who needs it mounted higher.... tractor supply/home depot sell magnets. Buy one about the size of a half dollar that's great quality for $5 or so and place that in main compartment. Those have a 90lb+ weight hold rating. It's an easy fix if bag has to be high and in the wind. If you don't want the magnet in your compartment, use the flap on back that can be used to store rags like the other comment stated. Use that space for a stronger bigger magnet 🧲 🤷♂️ My opinion is.... it's not crap. But it's universal. So some critical thinking and problem solving can easily make this bag useful on different tank shapes. 🤔
Also... if anyone is curious about my tank, shape, slope, seat position.... I ride a 22 kawasaki vulcan s cafe. One day when I get a camera... or a friend with a camera..... I'm going to post a video of me doing 110mph with this bag, with only the 4 little magnets. And loaded like I would normally have it. Just to prove that position of the bag is what's important. But then I'll show it on a bike that has to have it mounted high, with an extra $5 strong half dollar sized magnet. 😉 and we will see it at highway speed. If your buying a $25 bag from Amazon and not the $99 bag at your local bike shop, your obviously trying to save $$$ like I am. So..... add a silly $5 magnet if u feel the need to. That's cheaper than trying 2 or 3 budget bags where in the long run you will spend as much or more than if u would have just got the $99 bag. If u need the $25 bag, secure your investment with a $5 magnet. 🤷♂️🤦😉🤯
I used proper tools, wrenches, socket extensions, long pliers, needle nose to hook the pipes securely. Owning a bike and if you DIY, quality tools are a must, maybe I should do a video on that…. 🤔
@@agwag9x19 yes please! Been looking for videos on how to get to the header bolts with the radiator in the way, must be a pain 😂 and getting the servo cables out
@@rapppppstar you’re going to ❤️ it after the transformation! Brentune is by far the standard for bmw. If you got any install questions feel free to ask (I’ve done full installs on Honda/yamaha/bmw), it’s straightforward in the instructions they supply, Send me a pic when your done! 😊
and now to EV's =P not sure when I"ll be uploading those, have done a bunch of mods and personal opinions on the whole EV market. Crazy times we live in, prices are shocking as everyone can feel.
@@agwag9x19 nice, what's the part number or brand? The ones on Amazon comes with 3 wires, which one wires to the parking lamp? And which wires for the turn signals?
I prefer shorty since day one of riding, better fit to my riding style, I trail brake often and prefer to have a quicker way to transition on off the handlebar, just personal preference but a quality lever is good to have over a knock off, yes they might work for a short period but you can feel the difference as time goes by, the CRG I have on all my bikes, if it ain’t broke why fix it right? It’s easier to jump on each bike and not adjust. Leverage wise it’s quite the opposite you get more from a longer lever honestly. There’s pro and con to a mod or anything changing the physics of a mechanical device. I type alot and also use a grip exercise to strengthen fingers. It helps if your stuck at a long light with the clutch in, vs stopped in N in front of cars. If the stock clutch isn’t working you should adjust it, the manual has all the info and I think there’s the nickel or quarter method to measure what’s needed in clutch play, cable lube is also key, especially for winters and low temps for me sitting in a garage for 3+ months the cable can get rough. I use motion pro lube and their chain tools which work great, GL!
Just some differences I have found. Again gopro audio doesn’t do it justice. The GP vs stock is day and night, audible, throaty, half the weight, performance is a handful of HP which is normal. When I do any of the 3 mods I generally do them at once, ECU tune, filter, and exhaust regardless of slipon or straight pipe. Do all 3 and thank me later. I did not originally wanted to do the full system but after hearing the same system on a RR and good deals shopping I had to jump on it. Overall I am happy and was worth it. At the end of the day it breaks necks 😃 ride safe!
Just brentune, I did the sprint filter/full system install myself. The brentune comes to you delivered, plug and play. Recommended to do all 3 at once, doing one without the 2 is not worth it like getting only a sip of coffee rather than a whole cup if that makes sense.
