    Hello from Kingston - shopping for first cruiser

    You and I brother. I wear an open face helmet all year round. Over the winter months, I just wrap a biker’s scarf around my neck (not a fan of it flying around, so I tuck it in) and I swap my summer jacket for a heavy bomber jacket and a set of Red Wings gloves. Comfy as hell when you have the...

    Hello from Kingston - shopping for first cruiser

    There is a black bagger also for sale but I can’t upload the picture. The price is £24,050.00. It was £30,050.00.

    Hello from Kingston - shopping for first cruiser

    As it happens, I am at the dealership today to do my first MOT (compulsory vehicle inspection in the UK after 3 years of service) and check these new bikes that are for sale, the blue TC partially wrapped just came in.

    Hello from Kingston - shopping for first cruiser

    8K on a R18 is nothing and if it has been serviced by the dealer, even better. To put it into perspective, 3 years ago my Bagger costed £27K, that is a lot of coins. I managed to get a discount and a good price for my M109R so I pulled the trigger. She has every option under the sun and I am...

    Turn Signals (R18 Roctane)

    I am not sure about the Roctane but in the Bagger you can switch the “Comfort Indicators” on and off. Check your owner’s manual. I have attached here a screenshot of mine. The feature switch itself of depending on leaning angle or time lapsed, whichever comes first. So if you are on a turn and...

    New BMW R18B

    Congratulations on your new bike and welcome aboard. The R18 is not everyone’s cup of tea but you have just purchased one hell of a motorcycle at a ridiculous low price and that to me is a win win situation. A rolling piece of art and history. Enjoy 👍

    Front brake/ rotors bmw r18

    From this end the discs looks fine to me. If you run a finger through the centre and the surface is smooth, you are good to go. Also run a finger to the outer edges. If you notice a lip on either end, then you should consider changing the discs at some point.

    That is BMW Star Dust Metallic paint. I believe now discontinued on new motorcycles.

    Same here, I actually don’t mind the gap.

    Information BMW should have included these from the factory

    Hi there. Nothing is missing, apart from the chrome piece that keeps the seat in place, which is removed as the seat is not there. The fillers you are referring to were not part of the Bagger design, they were introduced when the Roctane was launched (a design evolution), which can be...

    Setting the proper preload for the rear suspension

    They were not the only ones. In the UK when the FE pure was launched, lots of people, including me, complained about harsh suspension, which to be honest made me try the Bagger and the ride was so much better, I ended up buying it. BMW set the suspension to the “shipping mode” to prevent the...

    Brand name of oil cooler

    How about reaching out to him directly? I am sure he would not mind giving you the details you are seeking. He has an Instagram account.

    Brand name of oil cooler

    They are very similar to the RBS Slim line coolers, not sure if they are or not.

    Reverse Recall done

    When I had mine done, they did a software update to tell the CPU that the more robust relay was fitted. They told me this was necessary to avoid any errors on the TFT.
