    Nice Day for a Ride/That’ll Buff Out 🙄

    I'm glad to hear that you're alright and was able to get the bike back up on your own. This is always a concern for me, as I just recently removed my Engine Protection Drop Bar; I've been cleaning my bike up a bit, moving towards a "cleaner" or "simplier" look. Now perhaps, reconsidering...

    I remove my side case on my Model B when I change the bevel gear fluid; that said, the case is surprisingly heavy - it's definitely heavier than it looks.. oh wait, I'm lazy so I probably left all of my "stuff" in the removed side case.

    Dr. Jekill & Mr. Hyde R18 B/TC - ROCTANE Exhaust for Sale

    Its the entire J&H exhaust system as depicted within the installation documentation. I'm keeping them on the bike until they sell; they do sound amazing, and figured I'd continue to enjoy them.

    Transmission leak after service.

    You do realize that 1.25 L is greater than the recommended 1.15 L as specified by BMW maintenance documentation...????

    Transmission leak after service.

    Why not take a stab at servicing your transmission yourself; it's actually very easy, and you'll know it's done correctly....

    Transmission leak after service.

    How much fluid did the Service Shop use in your transmission? It's only supposed to be filled with 1.15 L Are they using the BMW G3 specific fluid?

    New Tire recommendations

    I keep it simple.. I shoot for Black, Round, Reasonable Priced from a quality brand name; once I find a brand that I like, I stick with it until they let me down and I repeat the above process.. I only got hooked on METZLERS, due to service technician recommending them to me, when I needed...

    2022 R 18 Bagger 4500 miles Sold

    I'd keep it, even if you have an itch that you need to scratch; for me, I like the new HD Street Glide CVO St or Road Glide CVO St even though my R18 is mechanically and feature wise is a more robust platform.
