PostForum: Tech   Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2012 3:07 pm   Subject: '98 K1200RS mirrors on '95 K11 RS
Has anyone mounted K12 mirrors on a K11RS? Do they fit the mounting holes in the K11 handlebars and are there any issues with hitting the upper fairing on tight turns?

Thanks

I was cleaning my '95 RS and discovered a threaded hole in the bottom of the clutch housing. I don't remember a drain plug there and have never removed it but apparently it fell out.

Can one of you K11 electrical experts confirm the purpose of the Relief Relay? I assume it's the relay that cuts power to unnecessary loads when the starter motor is engaged?

If that is correct, I ...

It was the wiring underneath pushing out against the side panel on the right side. I zip-tied them down more securely and that seems to have solved the problem. Thanks for the tip.

The factory repair manual says 43Nm. It's on page 254 if you have the .pdf file. It took me a while to find this one too when I reassembled mine last month.

What part did you use for the fog and driving light relays? Did you mount them in the electrical box under the tank with the existing relays?

Thanks!
