    B / TC tire life

    Seem identical to the Michelin tires so far. My bike didn't come with H50's.

    B / TC tire life

    I just replaced the Michelin tires at 9,700 miles. Like you, the front was shot and the rear had plenty left. I replaced both with Metzler 888's.

    Tires….yep

    So, I have 9k+ on the Michelin III’s. The front is toast, but the rear is good. I am thinking about switching to Metzeler M888 marathon tires. Anyone have experience with them. I am not really satisfied with the Michelins, for various reasons. Any thoughts?

    6,000 miles service cost is ridiculous!

    I agree with Ulrich. I have performed 3 valve checks on R18’s. No pin is required to prevent cylinder movement. The older boxers had a place for the pin to slide in, these do not!

    Cost of first service

    Pretty sure that I paid $350ish for the 600 mile service at BMW of Jax. Give them a call

    Cost of first service

    When you say break-in, do you mean 600ish mile service?
