I've got an 03 and have the chance of buying a Remus twin can. The seller says there are no markings so I'm keen to understand the MOT status - I also ride a lot in Wales where the police are more likely to pull motorcyclists over and if you're served a rectification notice, can't refit as it'll be 3 points if pulled over again. Any help appreciated 😊
I have had got through 15 plus MOT’s. These are us pipes are not out over loud. In fact in 2013 I did a track day at Oulton park and it passed quite a stringent db test. It’s more a burble than a roar. I believe exhausts that say Not for road use are the problem. I have never heard of any boxer cup owner having a problem with excessive noise.
They are fantastic bikes. I have one of the first 300 Boxer Cup Replicas made from new and I can honestly say, it's the most forgiving and fun bike I've ever had. For me there will never be a "next bike" because I doubt if I'd find anything as good as my Randy Mamola beemer. I've fitted Laser exhausts and I think they sound as good as the Remus. The only other upgrade are Ohlins front and back. It's great to hear that other people like this bike too.
I’m lucky enough to own a 2003 Randy Mamola R1100S. It came fitted with a beautiful set of Staintune mufflers which look and sound magnificent. How many Randy Mamola Boxer Cup Edition bikes were produced? I’d love to know if you can tell me. Cheers great video 😊👍
How many BCR’s? Good question. Over my 17 yrs of ownership I have often wondered and never seen a definitive answer. There are 3 or 4 versions of the BCR. Mine being the Randy Manola, single spark. Someone suggested there were 1100 of them? But can’t be sure? Not sure even BMW knows exactly 😂
To be honest I can’t recall about the passport situation. However with Brexit and the whole Schengen issue, I guess you would be wise to take them. We stayed in hotels. I saw some glamping sites. I would guess there are plenty of campsites? Enjoy you will love it! 🏍️💨✊
No passports needed. Ireland and Britain have a mutual agreement since 1922 (date of Irish independence) called the CTA (Common Travel Area). This guarantees citizens of both Ireland and Britain the freedom to travel, live and work in each other's countries. Hence no passport checks. This agreement is the reason both countries had to stay out of Schengen. After Brexit the same agreement continues to be applied between both countries.
I do the north coast every couple of years with friends from Bangor and Newtownards and did it 6 months ago. But now in December 2021 it's so so sad to watch this and know that our freedoms are being rapidly taken away daily and this year was probably the last time we'll ever do it. We've been played like a stradivarius the last 2 years and have been dragged into a tyrannical dystopian nightmare. At least we have fantastic videos like this to look back on.
Absolutely wonderful trip, enjoyed every minute. Next trip please consider doing live commentary it adds a lot to the video. Just bought a Harley Davidson to go touring in and around Mexico city where I live. Thank you very much.
Absolutely first class, I enjoyed every second of it. Eniscrone and Ballina brought back fond memories. I'm off to Andorra on my GS next week and I hope I get as much enjoyment as you lads did. Good luck.
I'm returning to the UK after 10 years in China. Just bought a Harley Lowrider S, customized it and it's got a shiny new 131ci engine (2146cc). Looking to do NC500 perhaps this Aug / Sep, or combine that with the WAW next year (2022) in reality what I'd like is the NC500 then a total coastal 'tour' of the island if Ireland but that may be too much in one bite. My wife doesn't do pillion although my daughter may (she's 10), (so wife may be up to running as a chase car (baggage)). If you or anyone else wants to do that journey again, or the one I'm thinking of PM me, I'm quite happy to route plan etc.
This was a good trip but they missed out on the best of the WAW. The west and south-west coasts are the most spectacular, with the more interesting entertainment, bars, cafes, museums, festivals, etc.
Oh lovely....Just lovely: a beautiful Beemer, with a set of nuclear power station cooling towers in the background, for your smile, that's (ir)radiating, after a good ride.
@@helenaville5939 bracing walks in fresh air under a gloomy grey sky. Thanks but I can do that the Lake District or Pembrokeshire or Devon or Scotland or ..
Hi Guys.... I am an Indian biker now in Ireland . Would like to start riding in Ireland and join you guys for a tour soon... Help me out joining your riding club if possible. My Mail ID ; billunavaz@gmail.com
I spotted my house :) We call the plane "The Yoke" here. Was a big hype about it when it landed on the shore and got transported to the camp grounds. ....and 4 years on, the place looks still the same, pity it never got finished.
Very nice to see you enjoying our country. I live here and have motorcycled all over the place but never bother really when at home. This is now on my must do list. Lots of good crazy camping too, Hopefully you will return in better times and thank you
Great video of your waw trip. Was considering that for next year. 🤔 looks like you guy's rode into some nasty weather, but not all bad by the looks of it. We had some rain when we done the nw200 last year. But, like you guy's we had our fair share of the sunshine on the Emerald Isle 😁👍
Paul Mansell . Cheers Paul. Comments appreciated. I have since been and done the southern WAW. Absolutely stunning! Again the weather was kind. Sill got to go and see the NW200. Next year maybe?
Great video 👍 I’m currently looking to buy a R1100s and really looking forward to giving the boxer engine a good thrashing. Absolutely love the look of this bike.
Apologies, for the quality of this. I have a drift ghost HD. I wifi'd it to my phone an grabbed the clips from the ghost. In hindsight the quality was poor. Get it right next time.
Ive been looking at getting an R1200S and someone recommended I get the R1100S instead. What can you tell me about the real world differences between the two?
Hi Robert, Can only speak about the R1100s, a lovely bike that gets my heart racing when I look at it! My other bike is a 1200GSA. I'm tall and both suit the tall rider. I would love a R1200s, beginning to have a cult following due to only having short production run. I kick myself for getting a HP2 when they were affordable. Going back to your original question, perhaps if mine wasn't the Boxercup, I would probably upgrade to the R1200s ( Red and Silver )
the boxercup is absolutely lovely and I would love to have either that or an HP2.The R1200S will really suit my needs I think. It isn't as intense as an S1000RR and it has hard cases and a shaft drive. I want to do Sport Touring but I ride every day once its above freezing and I would like something Sporty.
The R1200S is more of a sportbike than the 1100 and loses a lot of the practicality, it has about 15% more power and is a bit more nimble but I much prefer the R1100S mine is non boxer cup but has the remus pipes and the BCR suspension, great bikes only real fault is a bit vibey over 5k.
