Mmm.. My remote is slightly different and wont fit there..Bugger! What about remote resevoir? Do you have that fitted? The "instructions" show both mounted to the rear sub-frame on the "loops" for the rear foot rest hangers...but the hoses appear to be short.. Revs will take a look if I can get the 'bike over there... but I want to make sure I'm not doing "summat saft"...
Cheers, Jono

Don't have the remote Resv. Pre-load came with small bracket and fit on just like it says on the Tin...

The unit fit more or less straight in without any hassles, 15 Minutes, Max inc. removing the original...

Sorry can't help anymore...

That'll teach ya to go for the full monty....

Ain't got the 1150 but fitted some to a 1200.

Just wondering if you have it in the right way round?

Yeah... I thought I might have... but swapping it round makes it way worse...

There is a bracket that you screw to the remote, I also had a panic until I searched the box and found it.

I've got the bracket..it mounts to the rear frame tube...it's not the same as the one photo'd above...

I'm beginning to wonder if you've got a unit for the 1200, I know the pre-load is clamped to the frame ....

just fitted mine to me 1100. No remote res but the preload fitted best on the opposite side to the OE one. As you say attaches to the footpeg hanger frame. Have you tried tucking the hose behind the fuse box area (not sure how it looks on the 1150 but seemed to fit better when i did that on mine.)

...right...after a quick trip to "Revs" and the ever-helpful Mr Gaskell... who tweaked one of the fittings around we now have lift off However, when I return I'll get him to put a slightly longer...25mm ish.. hose on the remote reservoir to increase the clearance from the brake pipe banjo fitting...for my own peace of mind.
Top marks to Revs/Every Accessory for customer service…and fine coffee to boot !

Glad it's sorted, I see the 1150 has both reservoirs on the one side unlike the 1200 which separates them.

Sorry for the late reply but that is exactly how they are fitted - to my 1150 Adventure at least. (Fitted by an excellent factory trained technician).
