    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.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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...

    What's the jacket of choice for your R18?

    So you like your English brands. There is a maker in the borders whose name escapes me. When funds allow, I fancy one from there. Edit: Aero Leathers

    Brentuning Complete: My experience doing so...

    Maybe not worth ‘your’ money, but definitely was worth mine. The tune is very subtle but makes big improvements all round in my opinion.
