Bike R1200r 2011 classic.
I have always felt a bit cramped on the bike. ( 6ft 32" inside leg ) Previous bike was a 2015 GS. So I treated myself to a foot peg lowering kit and a bar riser kit. NN supplied the goods and I fitted them this weekend. The foot peg kit came with a brake line extension. It said probably not needed. Well I thought I would try and persuade the brake line to accept its lower position. It seemed a bit much so I fitted the extension piece supplied. So it meant of course a bleed of the rear brake system. As its a none abs I did a complete flush, seeing I had to break the seal on the fluid I did the front as well.
It didn't take long to flush the front, the discolouration in the front circuit was more pronounce then the rear. A ride out today provide the benefit of the mods.

The above link is a tool I found useful in deciding what route to take to improve my riding comfort. Hope you may find it useful as well.
Just had another fuel strip fitted last week( warranty ) thats the third one. I think the R1200r is good value when you compare it against some of the other models with almost identical spec.
