The only colour scheme i would want now is black or gold frame(anni) with yellow panels
But too much hassle to get frame coated ��

Maybe a 1200S in about 2 years as they might grow on me
Ridden Parkinsons demo and still dont like the 1200

Prefer the Diavel to the M1200/S but i thought the same about the 1100 till they ditched the wheelbarrow look with the evo ��

Haha. They look really nice on t'web.

Sorry another question, any tips on replacing them or is it pretty straight forward ?

Cheers !

Hi Cobra88,

first of all: what a gorgeous bike that you had the patience to put together. Or should I say: the passion to put together?

I am thinking of building from scratch a 1100evo project with Oehlins suspension front and rear. You have very nicely detailed some of the important steps to do so. Thank you very much for that!

I was wondering, the 1100evo comes with ABS as default. However, most 1100s models that I have seen do not have ABS (if I remember correctly on the the last year - 2010? would have had ABS). Hence, my question: did your Oehlins fork come with ABS mounts? Where does the sensor go? Or did you get rid of ABS altogether?

I know that this sounds a bit like nit-picking, but in my experience it is these small details that can cost me months and a lot of (unnecessary) cash.

Have a good ride - and safe!
Mike

Hi Mike

I kept the ABS as it works great and even after 34 years riding it can stop shorter than I can first time
in an emergency .

All M1100 evo have ABS.

the ABS will fit fine as it's all mounted on a sub assembly that fits between the mudguard and forks.

Good luck finding a set of Ohlins S forks as it took me 2 years to find a set (eBay.de)

your only problem will be finding 848 brake discs as the Ohlins forks have the calipers spaced 10mm
further apart.

I ended up fitting 330 mm 1098/1199 Discs as they are far more common on eBay.

Thank you Cobra!

I will see what I can find. Wow! It took you 2 years to find a set of Ohlins forks! I can imagine that it is most risky to find a set that is not damaged - hence, not bent or scratched. I know from a friend, that there are people who had accidents and then try to sell as much of their bikes as possible - even damaged parts.

Have a safe ride!
