Key point is if you don’t use the reverse gear, then the risk of fire is not there and that’s the whole point of the recall. But outside of that, the fix is already available. You might be able to get it through mail even with the sanctions through South Africa maybe…just a thought for a fellow...

Thanks for sharing the disassembled pics. I have a project to add some escort strobes and was thinking if mostly hollow, I could purpose these for mounting some LEDs. Looks like another over engineered German design, especially for just a wind and leg deflector.

Welcome. I use to to ride a 1200RT and put 110k on it. Then I saw the R18TC FE and just fell in love with it. Four years later, she has safely delivered me across the US four times and 21 US states. The center of gravity although lower, rides like the RTs.

Welcome and enjoy the ride

Welcome and nice ride. You will like it. I take mine across the country every year now for 4 years. Handles, rides, and carves nicely 😊

Welcome and nice low mile pick up.

Welcome 🤗.

After 6,300 miles over 16 days, and 17 states. Run for the Wall 2025 is complete. I’ve been in the advance staging crew for 4 years so this may explain why I look like a human cone in some pictures. The only pics I have of the R18 is from day 2 & 3. I should have taken a pic of just how dirty...

Old thread but same problem on my R18 TC FE with 17k miles. Bike would not start this morning on day 4 of a cross country trip from California to DC. Had it towed 200 miles to the closest eastbound dealer, and they found the clutch sensors would not read at 70 & 100%. The answer, air got into...

Welcome Tim. Nice looking ride.

Congrats and welcome. As for the seat, I started with a water filled seat pad for a year but that didn’t extend the seat time by much more than 2 hours. I then converted to a Corbin custom seat and no looking back at that purchase, comfortable at 3+ hours which works well on long journeys to...

Ooooooo, close to candy apple red…very vintage US color. Nice 👍🏼 Welcome and rubber side down.

A very late photo dump of the break in, 8600 mile ride on the R18TC. Cross country with RFTW.us https://www.r18forums.com/media/albums/rftw-2022.72/ Let’s see if I can post an album for 2025 in year 2025…hummm

Ooo it’s April ^^^bump^^^

Welcome and awesome new ride. I love that paint scheme. Rubber side down.
