I know this is probally not the correct place to put this, but does anyone know if the front beak from an 1150gs adv fit onto the older 1100gs.
Would be gratefull for any advice, help or suggestions, thanks
:clap
 
I am afraid not.

Here is how a 1150 ADV tank looks on the 1100.

There is around an inch each side and therefore the 1150 beak would be way to wide for the 1100 tank, I am not sure on the mountings though

HTH,

Yes with modification, you need to trim both sides where it meets the 1100s alloy headlight mount. and you need to make brackets up to align the mounting points and the 1100 oil cooler sits about 50mm further back you could fill in the gap on the beak with glass/filler or cheat like me and use stainless mesh to make an oil cooler cover.

Another picture of the beak mid modification. You can see the gap in front of the oil cooler and the red line marks where you need to trim you can also see how neat it fits to the tank.

Eh?

My ADV tank fitted to my 1100 looks nothing like that. Can't locate a decent picture but it fits straight on with no gaps. nice n snug against the standard 1100 beak. What have you done???
