Bubbadozer Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Have a chance to PU new front and rear shocks off of a 04 R1150R for my 96 R1100RS. Will that work? Thanks Link to comment
Oldrider51 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Looking at the fische foe these two models it appears that the suspension pieces from the 04 R1150R are different. You can check this out by going to maxbmwmotorcycles.com and look at the parts microfische for each model the part numbers are different. Also, the rear shock of the 1150R has a remote preload adjuster. Link to comment
Bubbadozer Posted July 22, 2017 Author Share Posted July 22, 2017 Called two local BMW dealers and neither one knew if they were compatible... Link to comment
Oldrider51 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Looking at the parts microfiche for the two bikes it appears that the front shock from the 04 might work although the part numbers are different. However, the rear shocks appear to have different bottom mounting attachments, one uses a clevis attachment on the shock and the other has a through bolt type (don't know the proper term). Anyway they are different. Go to either bobsbmw.com or maxbmwmotorcycles.com and look. Link to comment
