There’s also the SLR tune, but far less info or user experiences available online. I did the BT and really like how it irons out the wrinkles of the stock tune. The tune won’t “void” your warranty, but you’d need to reload the stock tune before heading to the shop for work. There’d be no...

Just grabbed a Corbin TC seat off a fella on the site that traded on to a different bike. Trying to figure out how you have that BMW plate attached over the seat bracket. Is it just floating? My bracket is too wide to fit into the notch on the cover so I’ve just got the naked bracket going.

You need to side load the google play store on the fire tablet in order to get the correct Motoscan app. Follow this guide and you’re good to go. https://www.howtogeek.com/232726/how-to-install-the-google-play-store-on-your-amazon-fire-tablet/

JW Speaker makes a non-mechanical adaptive headlight where additional leds light as you lean one way or the other. From what I understand, JW makes these R18B and TC lights also. While I can appreciate the complexity and engineering that went into this light, it’s just the more parts the more...

Ha! Can’t compete with a damn thing if you can’t sell the bike! I don’t know thing one about how these decisions are made, but knowing what I know about Harley, I gotta think most people shopping for Harley end up with a Harley. I don’t know that even the best of BMW or Indian or anyone else...

I got my 2023 B in late September for a flipping SONG. No idea how long the dealer had it, but it was a no haggle deal and they gave me thousands off. Couldn’t say no. So I get the artificial scarcity if that’s the game. I also wonder if folks will cross shop the R12 with the R18 and how...

There could be benefit there, though. If no one can buy at a dealer and no one can trade in at a dealer, maybe private sales get a little boost.

It feels more and more wild as time goes by with not even a minimal update from BMW. They’ll have their whole manufactured fleet of R18Bs and TCs sitting around unsellable until they create a fix. I assume the 2024s are impacted as well, so no one in the market for these bikes can have one. And...

Thought I had a nice lead on a discount code for the kern stabi stand. Hornig wisely reduced the regular price a bit, so their 20% off code doesn’t apply. Super lame. Mods, please delete.

ohh no no, looks we confused each other. I was talking about the obdlink working in tuneecu for the Triumph Bonneville. I've already got motoscan pro for the BMW.

Hmm. I looked at the tunceecu site and they have the obdlink lx listed as supported. Maybe that’s a recent update?

The obdlink doesn’t work with tune ecu? I was getting ready to buy the app to work on my Bonneville.

Cheapest way in is a refurb Amazon fire tablet. You can set it up to run the Google play shop in about 15 mins and then grab the Motoscan app required to work between the obd and the bike.

And it runs about $1000?

So they rebuild a stock seat from the pan up? I looked on their site and couldn’t find anything for the R18 line. Curious about getting something to swap onto my B for big time rides.

I’m hearing dealerships can’t even warranty the lights right now because they’d be replacing the faulty one with a part already under recall. Right fucked for a while for anyone with a bum light.

If you’re in the US, there’s an open recall on the adaptive headlight. There’s no remedy yet, however. I haven’t read of anyone here being able to open the light to adjust anything, so not sure that’s even feasible.

Can you put up a pic? Curious what it looks like on the bike. Thanks!

If you’re talking about a rider backrest and not passenger, utopia has a good reputation. You could go full seat replacement and get a Corbin, but you’re in for over a grand that way. I’m not sure who else makes a rider backrest right now, so you’re really choosing between just a couple things.
