Sherlock home with the S1000R, looking forward too see what BMW does with the 2020 version, my local dealer has a deep blue metallic paint scheme on the floor, they sell sort of slow in my area of the US. ENJOY the sound... soon you will have the full experience.
For around $60 USD i changed both Low/High beams, the DRL's, and wired a 70mm halo ring (2 wires) and it has made the most change yet. I felt like the lighting lacked a little, i'm plagued with the NA model lowbeam-shutoff.
@@stevesherlockrides literally just bought a Ztechnik screen for mine when it arrives next week. Awesome looking screen. Close as you get to a superbike front like my Blade. Happy days
The exhaust muffler box or whatever its called does not contain the cat,it is located in the mid pipe next to the headers. You can still save a few kilos but unless you also fit new headers then you won't gain any performance to speak of. Because the latest ecu is locked down by BMW theni would leave alone,if you fit headers for a full system you can't really get a good mapping module for these unless you send your ecu to Brentuning in the U.S.,and even after all this you might only gain 10bhp. It's just not worth the spend. Get a Sprint air filter for a 2.5 bhp gain and leave well alone. The bike is really fast already for road riding with a decent rider onhoard nobody will get away from you.
Sorry you're comment is confusing. I didnt say I've removed the cat, in fact I'm keeping it because the bike has enough performance and with the gp style slip on it sounds better also.
I’ve got mine too last july 30, 2020 same colour and until now it’s all stock. I like your tank lock and your disclock. How can i do it just like your bike.
Thanks for your comment. The tank locking bag is from SW Motech however they have now improved the mechanism to include an extra magnet which makes the location of the bag far easier. The Roadlok can be purchased directly from RoadLok in the USA or we have an agent here now in the UK. roadlok.com/
Hi Steve thanks for sharing. Could you please tell me where you got the radiator and oil cooler guards from and the screen. I’m looking to buy them. Pete
Hi thanks for the Q. Close up the screen doesn't block the intakes at all as the screen edge curls up at the edges and doesn't affect the bike at all. I think it's a great screen and thoroughly recommend it
I did 4 days in Yorkshire recently, traveled up from London (270 miles) and my arse was in tatters at the end of day one! I'm buying a used comfort seat and a set of bar risers next week from a chap selling off a few bits!
No I can't remember that happening sir. I did however get annoyed with the engineered pops and bangs on overrun. The Akra defo suited the bike better than the OEM
Where did you get your exhaust Steve and if it’s not a rude question, how much was it, I’m seeing £500 to £700 on eBay but everything is from Europe???
Yes however MT10 had more personality due to the cross plane engine. Beemer better build quality, suspension, toys, display and more polished. The beemer did lack a bit of fun but went like a rocket hence I've just changed to a new KTM 1290 GT lol
Looking good mate - done similar, the Akra is awesome isn’t it ? Just added a Bos cat cover, German I think ... covers only one side which is all you need - looks so much better.
Steve Sherlock ua-cam.com/video/wLs6D0uESNA/v-deo.html here is a link I found on UA-cam - obv not my bike - he also does a fitment vid, really simple. Hope this helps !
I had a 2017 FZ10, haven't been on a MT. Dunno if any changes, i have this now. I won't compare them, need to ride the MT10 SP to compare, bc of the dynamic suspension. My fz was built, still didn't touch this. Different league of comfort as well, but i would've been fine with the fz. Go ride both, consider aftermarket.
@@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes yeah but they are different a bit. I had a 2016 FZ07, and it would not accept tunes for the MT07 of the same year because of Euro emissions and the ECU wiring. So i say that bc there might be some minute differences. Also i think in 2018/19 the US changed the whole FZ lineup to MT and i know they all got a few updates. If I were to ride a base model S1000R, without the DDC and had regular suspension, i think they would be more comparable. But its 2020 and naked bikes are stepping to a whole new level so i'm anxious to see what everyone does.
Thanks for the tour mate 👌🏻 did you need a remap for the end can? Also is it louder than stock? Last question. Who makes your paddock stand? Looks solid 😮
Didn't need a remap at all no as tye akra gp styke was a slip on. The sound is brilliant but not to loud unless you rip it lol. Highly recommend. Padock stand is a cheap one however the front one is a Harris. I think i bout the rear one off ebay years ago so can't remember sorry pal
In days i have a black 2019 s1000r getting delivered. Can i ask what size is your reg plate mate? for it looks legal and not like carrying a billboard on ya back. I have the evotech tail tidy plus rad n oil guard also on route 👍 Cheers in advance
@@stevesherlockrides great just what i wanted to hear...it looks good and as you say it blends in with the lines of the front end..not in your face one might..the best out there imo,you chose well. Order placed. Thanks again 👍
Just bought the same HP S1000R and glade to see all these mods you did! Thx
Wow, that windscreen changes the whole aesthetic, just what I’m looking for!
Just picked 1 up yesterday, same colours. Looks stunning but completely stock. Great looking and sounding bike you have.
Thank you. An amazing bike and you'll have tonnes of fun
I like the look of that screen suits the bike very well.
It was far better than the oem one. Quite difficult to find especially with covid
Nice mods mate.....quality kit as well. Quality may cost more but it won't let you down and lasts.

I’ve just bought the blue 2020 model, love it
awesome bike with great useful mods
Glad you like it!
Hello. Nice mods. Thanks for sharing
No problem and thanks for watching. Have you seen the new M1000r just released by BMW this week? 210 bhp!!!
Not yet but it should be marvelous 🤩🤩🤩
I saw a press release and images and omg what a bike
For around $60 USD i changed both Low/High beams, the DRL's, and wired a 70mm halo ring (2 wires) and it has made the most change yet. I felt like the lighting lacked a little, i'm plagued with the NA model lowbeam-shutoff.
Sounds amazing for having the cat still in.
It was but the iverun pops and bangs were to consistent and got a bit tiresome after a while
@@stevesherlockrides did you do away with it?.

For info this bike is up for sale at KD motorcycles in Accrington
Love that screen
Nice mods. Keep it up!
Hi Steve thanks for sharing. Could you please tell me more about the mirrors and brake fluid tank -Rizoma
What specifically sorry?
@@stevesherlockrides The Ref/Model of the rizoma aftermarket parts on the bike please
Oh crap it was 16 months ago. I bought on ebay and as they are model specific you should find it. The mirrors are discontinued unfortunately pal

Hi, can you share a link for that security lock in the front wheel?
Same here
ua-cam.com/video/NEoOi6LveDU/v-deo.html
You buy direct from roadlok in the USA. A number of insurance companies do offer discount I believe
Nice bike man, I just got my one
Yes its ace. I've now moved onto a KTM superduke which is very different. Enjoybthe beemer as you will love it
Nice mods Steve, best colours for 5his bike too 👍
I think so too! Ive now changed to a KTM Superduke in Orange and white
@@stevesherlockrides I love the look of that bike too, I may get one at some point in the distant future.

Mine a October 2020 model also on a 70 plate
Can you post some details on that disc lock! Lovely bike
www.roadlok.com has everything you need pal.
Where did you buy that wind screen
Was just an on line purpose from.memory
What windshield is that, and which mirrors is that ,I'm going to buy both
Rizoma mirrors but they have been withdrawn for newer models. The screen is a vstorm technik and rally good. I now have 1290 KTM
Sounds sweeeeeeeet
Thank you. I've gone over to the orange side now and sounds even better 😌
I noticed your screen covers the air intake..how does this affect the bike..?? As like the look but can't be good for bike..
Hi thanks for the Q. Close up the screen doesn't block the intakes at all as the screen edge curls up at the edges and doesn't affect the bike at all. I think it's a great screen and thoroughly recommend it
@RandomShart I tend to swap from time to time. If on long rides then I use the Vstream but for a blast through the roads then I might use the OEM
How do you get on with it being over 6 foot?
Any views on the stock seat? Would you change it? I find it hard as a rock if I'm on it for more than 2 hours.
I did 4 days in Yorkshire recently, traveled up from London (270 miles) and my arse was in tatters at the end of day one! I'm buying a used comfort seat and a set of bar risers next week from a chap selling off a few bits!
I think its firm yes and after about 2 hours in the seat you need to stretch your legs. I was close to buying the comfort seat a while back
Hey mate nice vid...what loch did you say you have? Wouldn’t mind one of yhem
Could you please share a link for the windshield?
I don't have a link but its a zTechnik vstream and very good indeed. Might be selling soon if you're interested
I’m back again Steve, did the exhaust make your bike more vibey?
No I can't remember that happening sir. I did however get annoyed with the engineered pops and bangs on overrun. The Akra defo suited the bike better than the OEM
Nice bike....is your end can road legal?
It is yes
Where did you get your exhaust Steve and if it’s not a rude question, how much was it, I’m seeing £500 to £700 on eBay but everything is from Europe???
I bought for about £450 from memory off ebay. It was road legal yes
What windscreen is that, I love it
Ztecknik vstream- excellent
Are those decals on the tank and rear fender or paint?
Do you prefer the bm to the mt10? I’m looking to get a naked bike but unsure of which one yet, thanks & great vid as well 👍
Yes however MT10 had more personality due to the cross plane engine. Beemer better build quality, suspension, toys, display and more polished. The beemer did lack a bit of fun but went like a rocket hence I've just changed to a new KTM 1290 GT lol
@2:29 Roadlok, not Quadlok.
Where did yoo buy your wind screen?
Direct with the manufacturer. Let me know if i haven't mentioned it and I'll reply
@@stevesherlockrides what site sir? So i can order now
To be honest I simply can't remember as utterly was 2 years ago. I'm really sorry
Hi mate. What brand of windshield that you used on your bike?
I have 2, the standard OEM one and the ZTechnich Stream. this is the video with the latter ua-cam.com/video/CtrLll1EQMg/v-deo.html
