    What did you do to your R18 today?

    I actually was looking for a set of WW to replace my existing tyres as the front one is close to the legal limit and the rear has a screw in but not letting air out. I could not find WW anywhere for my bagger so I ended up buying another set of H50 which arrived today and seriously considering...

    Metal in Engine Oil Question

    It is normal for metal parts to shed excess metal when mating so you may notice more residue when the bike has very low mileage. Did you change the oil filter and inspected the inside for more metal particles? I wouldn’t be too concerned at this point, just ensure you use the correct oil specs...

    Shifting friction zone (clutch)

    I have never experienced this but then again, long rides for me at 3hrs max at the time and mainly on free flowing traffic. I also commute to work for about 1.5hrs and that has a mixture of highway and congested traffic in the city but my clutch so far has been pretty good. I don’t think the...

    R18 Boxer Coffee Machine

    Yup. The myth was born after an advert. The BMW logo's meaning comes from two main elements: the blue and white colors are derived from the Bavarian flag, the German state where BMW was founded, and the circular shape with the outer ring was borrowed from the previous company, Rapp Motorenwerke...

    BMW 2025 R18 Roctane

    LOL. Admiration is one of the things any R18 effects on other people. Next time you are in town, just park it and stand across the street, maybe sit and have a coffee, and you will see how many people stop and look, some either take selfies 😂😂😂😂

    BMW 2025 R18 Roctane

    Couldn’t agree more. I forgot to mention but about 2 weeks ago, I saw a Dragon Fire Red Bagger on the M25 North. The rider was travelling on the opposite direction and the sun was a bit low as it was early morning. The orange glow from the sun vs the red on the bike made her look even more...

    Annoying app settings

    Is it me or does anyone else have noticed that the Motorrad App annoyingly changes the distance values from mls to kms? It does not allows me to change it back to mls , instead I have to log off and log back to make the changes. Was never like this, it just started happening for the last 3 to 4...

    100 year welcome gift box

    Glad to hear that. I was not criticising anyone, I was not aware of a second FE batch memorabilia. I was just highlighting awareness as I was bitten before on a fake site that looked and felt like the real deal, that was all. Enjoy 👍

    100 year welcome gift box

    I don’t think these are genuine. My understanding is that the welcome box was built exclusively for the first edition model, i.e, 125 bikes vs 125 boxes as an example and everyone that bought the first edition back then, was given the box as a welcome gift. As a rare item, some people sold them...
