Thread: 1250 review, GS variant.
Post: RE: 1250 review, GS variant.

Thread: Installation of my "new-to-me" muffler
Post: RE: Installation of my "new-to-me" muffler
| I use the Remus exhaust, also. I did a little research on the electronic exhaust valve and found that, unlike Yamaha's EXUP, the BMW unit self-adjusts throughout the rev-range. This means that the exh... |
