    R18 Bagger headlight reflector vibrating when accelerating.

    After several calls to corporate with no help and a call to the Division of Consumer Affairs. Miraculously the bike is fixed. Will update when I receive her.

    Adaptive headlight issue?

    The Dealership said no. Once you alter the vehicle the warranty is void on the OEM part itself. it has to be the r18b adaptive headlight housing. BTW I'm not just waiting on a light bulb. its a sealed unit.

    Adaptive headlight issue?

    When did they have 5? It does help us. We can order them direct from Germany. I doubt there are any because even corporate said there aren't any.

    Adaptive headlight issue?

    Hit the power button to let the phone sync while I put on my gloves and helmet, Mount(bike is straight) then start the motor. Why? It also spends all it time on a Stand in the garage... the kickstand is only used on trips.

    Adaptive headlight issue?

    Supposedly, this is common on all adaptive headlight options.

    Adaptive headlight issue?

    I would disagree, with the way mine failed the plastic parts could come in contact with the led itself and catch fire or cause electrical issues.

    What did you do to your R18 today?

    That the best I can do for comparison, if you're on the wall about it, just do it. Improves low speed handling and reduces driver fatigue. If you ever come to south jersey, let me know we can meet up and compare

    Key Fob/Battery issue

    I also have this issue. went as far as positioning the grey key with a pair of pliers right over the sensor under the seat to get the bike started.

    Maintaining tire pressure, Valve stem access on R 18 B

    BMW does a good job, with ergonomics. they come with valve stems facing the right side, so when the bike is on its kick stand, all you have to do is position the valve stem most comfortable for you to reach. I've done it twice, wasn't difficult at all.

    TC Light Bracket on AliBaba - Thoughts?

    I'd be interested in the bracket itself. I haven't had much luck with parts fitting with my k1600gt. So I don't have much faith in it. for other stuff such as sunglasses or waterproof bags, yeah I've purchased them, but I'm a little weary on direct fit stuff. I guess it's "you get what you pay...
