I bought one of these from Amazon for my Classic. Makes life a lot more pleasant! I bought it thinking if it worked I’d invest in a Puig or similar screen extender but I haven’t changed it & I’ve ridden a lot of miles with it on. So may be worth trying one & if it doesn’t work for you it’s $15...

But make sure the panel is well attached! I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s lost the right side side panel!

I fell for the R18 when I first saw one in 2019 when I bought an R1200R from a Motorrad dealer. Never thought I’d own one but after my Dad died in July 2022 I bought one-a 6 month old first edition Classic. I’ve lost money on it no doubt but I bought it as I believe it is a work of art both...

There you go.

I’ve got a Dayrider on my Classic. It’s wider than stock so more comfortable. I’m 6’0 with 33” in seam.

NOW SOLD.

Bought 2016. Jacket is size 54 & jeans are 52 regular leg. I’m the model in the pics & I’m 6’ & 13st. Suit in vgc, all zips work & have original pulls inc tabs, hanging loops in place (one starting to look dodgy), all D30 armour present including chest protector & neoprene storm collar is ok...

There are some interesting tips in this Fortnine video. I know LAPD don’t ride R18’s (wouldn’t it be cool if they did?!!) but a lot of the principles are salient.

I’ve recently bought the BMW Day Long seat which is wider than the stock seat & I find much more comfortable. The pillion seat padding is twice as thick as the standard one & slightly wider too. The seats have the BMW logo but are made by Mustang.

Welcome. Where in W Sussex? I’m in Lancing & have a Classic that I’ve had for a year now.

Just noticed the screen extension you’ve fitted. Does it make a difference & where did you get it? I’ve been thinking of getting one as I get a fair bit of buffeting. Cheers

Good job & IMO they look more at home than the factory bars. I love my Classic but I’m now looking for ways to improve my comfort. I’m starting with a Day Rider seat I’ve purchased from a fellow forum member & this could be the next mod to my bike.

Hi Jon, Subjective question but is the seat more comfortable than the standard one? I’ve got a Classic too. Thanks, Paul
