First my apologies for being a shlub that doesn't contribute to the forum.
So to recap I bought my 2016 S1000XR loaded with just over 2k miles around Dec 2021 , absolutely loved everything about the bike , except for one major issue.
When rolling along in a higher speed curve and hitting some mid corner bumps or dips the bike would get all out of shape , unsettled , kinda scary depending on speed.
I made all the esa tweaks possible to no avail .
I contacted The Beemer Shop in California US and spoke to the crew there at length and sent my rear shock in for a replacement with a TracTive Unit sprung for my weight etc.
Being a BMW newby I was a bit intimidated by just removing the original shock but manage to get r done reinstalled with no screws or bits left over lol.
Can't say how happy I was on the test ride, total transformation! The bike is planted and solid when railing some fast curves (with bumps)in dynamic mode , its plush in Road mode but still composed.
Of course I did't want spend $1000 usd on a bike i just purchased . But I think I got a deal on the bike and felt like it was worth the investment . Love this Beast
