    Reintroducing from South Texas

    I've gotta come in Texas, never been there. In my mental representation it's all desert. So I'm always pleased to see so much green on the pics. Next spring, on my Montauk ... 🤞

    Adaptive Headlight

    The FE does have "adaptative" headlights. A tiny side light gets on in curves. Very discreet influence on the visibility.

    BMW R18 100 Year Corbin

    NIce ! Do you plan to make some paint touches to match ?

    Comfortabel Seat

    I had mine done by Corbin. They build it to your measurement. Including the foam adapted to your weight. Mine ended 2' higher than the poor stock one. Super confortable. And you can choose colors, add backrest, heating etc. Still like new after 4 years

    Helmet suggestions

    I've had modular Shoei Neotec helmets for years. Now with Neotec 3, just excellent equipment for comfort, noise protection and safety. And the only I can find with XXL size (64cm ...) :ROFLMAO: I'll never go back from modular.

    Haven't even seen it in flesh so far. My friend Paul will pick it up in NYC to his place in Anapolis were the bike will be kept. I'll add a rack and a top case that are currently on mine in France for more cargo room.

    Since I plan to make road trips in US, I had to have a bike there... So I bought one. Not a R18, but a R1200c Montauk, Same year, same options, but very few mileage, than the one I have in France. Very nice bike, and moreover, pretty cheap. I've already ordered a new windshield from...

    Looking for feedback on front fender swap out.

    I bought this plastic fender intended to a HD Fat Boy. I had to make adapting plates and had it painted to match. Happy with the result, particularly since I swapped the front wheel to a 16' . The pics are showing the 16 &19' wheels. The fat tire fills the fender much better.
