    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    I can sort of agree. I guess that in the modern age, each bike will have so many updates that to keep abreast of it all, they would spend as much time on modifications as they would on developing software. I can just about stretch to the $200.00 as the map really does smooth everything out. If...

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    I have just now, emailed Brentune to see what my next steps will be. The big deal is on a personal level I am all Apple. Brentune do not support Apple. My company PC will not allow downloads from unknown sources. Sourcing a PC that someone will let me download files they don't understand, will...

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    Just tried to reinstall my BT but not having it. My handheld did not recognise the current ECU map, which again confirms there has been a flash carried out. $200 for Brentune to send me a revised map. If I had not removed the modified map before sending in, I would owe Brentune $400.

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    Will attempt to reinstall my map from BT Moto as soon as I have time. Removed it from the bike prior to sending in for recall.

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    My bike dropped off at my home yesterday. Reverse gear back in operation and BMW micro indicators fitted as part of my compensation package. The bike looks great and I am itching to get out.

    Hi from SoCal

    I love that part of the world. I came across Temecula when on a 3000 mile Harley tour with three other veterans from the UK / Falklands. The second time I visited, was with my wife. There happened to be a large classic car show which took over the whole town.

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    I never received a letter. Was informed by Halliwell Jones when I took the bike in with regards to other warranty work.

    BT Moto ECU Flash Group Buy and Discount!

    Completely agree with pbosik. At the price I paid, during the last group buy I am very happy. That said, the improvements are very subtle.

    Jack/Lift for the R18?

    Hi Snider Apologies for late reply. No file as such. Did some internet research and some help from on here. Will see if I can find the measurements. I think it is pretty much based on the Stabi dimensions.

    BMW Motorrad Gear Recommendations?

    Hi Jim Yes, I was really hoping these gloves would be a quality product but unfortunately, far from being a quality product in any way. 1st time I have been truly let down with the quality of BMW clothing. I still own an Atlantis buckskin suit which after nearly 25 years, still keeps me dry...

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    I like the mechanical model. Is that available as a kit or ready built?

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    My dealership were a bit muddled as to what the issue was, and how long it might take to fix. For me, I use the reverse a reasonable amount of time and it will prove very inconvenient without. I wish I had faith in the fact BMW would see me right on this issue.

    Likewise. My UK bike is in for warranty work and just now received the call.

    1 inch chrome handlebar spacer

    I have the Chinese version. I prefer to not buy Chinese where possible however, I have to admit that for the difference in price I could not ignore. 2 years later and the tiniest of blisters has appeared in the chrome. Ironically, my German built bike is having its rims replaced along with...

    Extended 'Reverse Gear' Lever-is it worth fitting?

    I use reverse a reasonable amount but never felt I would benefit from this mod’. I find the lever easy to locate and to operate.

    Rust in Peace - Spots of Rust and Corrosion on your R18

    Similar to me. Just coming up to end of warranty and have reported these issues. Flaking and blistering of chrome on one footrest and gear change, bubbling of paint on steering yoke. BMW have agreed to change out both wheels due to blistering where spokes insert into hubs. Hopefully, they will...
