Perhaps this RKA tank bag, it seems to fit the B/TC ok but I haven't used it myself. https://www.r18forums.com/threads/is-there-a-tank-bag-for-the-bagger-transcontinental.1041/

Wasn't there a problem with the 1st generation wunderlich bars? Are these the same shape as the 2nd generation?

I don't think you're a crybaby - you gotta have the right to ventilate some frustration once in a while. And since the R18 is such an outstanding, feature rich bike, one wonders how BMW could miss out on an electrical windshield for the B/TC - since it's almost a trademark for them - and how...

Thanks for the "boots review". I think they look very nice and seem comfortable. I have the same low screen and wind is directed right at my neck and helmet. I haven't done anything about it yet, but I will sure have to before I take any longer trip. What holds me back is that I like the clean...

I have the bagger too and the brake pedal was awkward at first, but I find myself adapting quite well - I guess my muscle memory gets better with the practise. Still learning to use the heel shifter, I'm almost forced to use it cause I can hardly reach under the toe shifter. I'd like to ask you...

Great videos, I think the pace is ok and you don't sound monotone at all. Along with the pdf these videos encourage me to do some maintenance myself. (y)

Could be Competition Werkes? At least I think the muffler is.

Looks like Competition Werkes. I'd guess it's extremely loud.

I'm buying an Android phone since they are a lot cheaper and I don't need anything fancy for navigation and music anyway. And for some reason iphones seem to be more problematic with the connected app - at least that's my impression from threads on this forum.

Thanks, great info & explanation. I was concerned about RAM on cheaper phones but now I feel reassured that it's not a big concern. I'll probably go for a cheap phone with a big screen that fits in the cradle. Then I'll add storage to it - which is exchangeable and not too costly.

I tried but failed. Don't know why but possibly because you cannot post polls in "Problems, issues, and things to share with BMW". The "poll" option wasn't there as it is in my other threads. Why don't you try in another part of the forum and see if you're allowed to start a poll there. I...

You are at the right place, so perhaps "new members" are not allowed to create a poll?

At the top right of your post, beside the watch/unwatch button, you should have a dropdown where you can create a poll. I don't have this issue on my bagger, but I haven't ridden much and have yet to do the first service.

Yes it's a bit disappointing that not all common phones fit in the cradle, so I'll watch out for that.
