Another question...
This link is surely known?
BMW MAX, Brunswick, NY/USA.

Parts overview R 18 on microfiche.
Not ideal for PC.
In Germany we says: In der Not frisst der Teufel Fliegen.

Installed Wilbers shock. Night and day difference. Bike feels more like a super torquey standard bike now. Took less than an hour with standard tools.

An experiment. Added copper color to the Roland Sands valve covers and the bolts holding it on. Keeping with the theme of green and copper on the rest of the bike.

I went on their site looking for this cover. I couldn't find it, help please.

I am working on this, blinkers will tie direct and replace stock, working on best spot to tap in but have run test leads and they work. Next wire trace is DRL to low beam and fog to high beam. It looks like wiring accessible immediately under front gas tank, but open to input if anyone has done this already

I hopeful that 3rd party shocks will become available for the Model B/TC; which have an adaptive suspension system?

Installed the BMW backrest alongside the TC Comfort seat for my passenger process.

Made a splitter for the factory horn connector to add a 510hz horn from a K1600 to go along with the 420hz stock horn so the R18 sounds like a K1600.

BTW headlight wiring
Brown ground

Most of the bmw sites sell them, such as Sierra BMW, Bob's BMW, etc. I painted it myself with Testors model enamel paint, in copper, with a super fine paintbrush, then two coats of clear lacquer

I finally got my Roadmaster winter heavy maintenance done and got the R18 on the lift.
I got the parts removed to install the LMC bobber fender kit.
Now all I need is a little more free time to work my way through the install.

Can't wait to see. I would love to go that route myself. Their products are beautiful!
