The fitting of the kit was done at Panagiotopoulos Service center and took about 20 minutes to install.
Tasos undertook the fitting.
The Brisk sparkplugs. They are supposed to last 30000km plus.
The spark plugs given in the kit were the DR15CZ, while at Boxer-Design's site, they state that the Brisks for the GS (and other oilheads) are the DOR14LGS. So, I e-mailed Boxer-design and they replied back that both are correct. I tried to figure them at the site of www.brisk.cz, but unfortunately there is no mention on motorcycles, while in the "automobile" section they mention even tuning for cars.
The LGS is the "normal" plug, it seems, while the "ZC" is the high power one...
Let's hope the BMW doesn't blow up!!!!
The airbox intake. It is noticeably wider, all along its length, compared to the standard snorkel.
The K&N air filter.
The intake tubes. The long one is the old one. The short one is a standard BMW part, coming from the R1100RT.
Tasos took it for a first ride...
So did Mr. Panagiotopoulos...
I rode the bike home... Mind you its a very short ride from Mr. Panagiotopoulos Service center to my home, just 6km's. First impressions: The sound hasn't changed I think. What has really changed is the midrange punch, speaking from the seat-of-the-pants, and at speeds only up to 90-100km/h.
I intend to evaluate it more during the weekend, and I will come back with more comments on Sunday night. Alas, some time early next week I'm taking the bike back to Power House Engineering for another dyno run to verify the seat-of-the-pants torque increase, and the Boxer-Design claims of "5-7 HP added".
Stay tuned!
The Second Dyno run reveals all!
