    Highway pegs

    I always just rest my legs on the jugs. Do that on my 1150 and now on the 1800. I were tall riding boots and never have a problem with the heat off the jugs. TCX. I don't know which model and I've had them for probably 15 years or so. I looked on Revzilla and didn't see an exact match, though...

    Highway pegs

    I always just rest my legs on the jugs, when it's safe to do so. Do that on my 1150 and now on the 1800. I were tall riding boots and never have a problem with the heat off the jugs.

    Reverse gear recall problem

    Good news. An absolutely great dealership. They disabled mine when it was in for winter maintenance. Haven't yet heard from them about the fix but I'm patient. I won't be riding until the salt is washed off the roads.

    Checking the oil

    DItto on all points, it is a PITA. At least could have provided a means to keep her upright so this is easier to accomplish. I use my phone, and keep the photo in my R18 folder, 'cause hell, I got it might as well keep it 'just in case'. 🤪

    bagger adjustment

    May not be the bars. Perhaps try a trick from offroad technique: weight the outside peg/floorboard by pushing down on it with your foot. This automatically shifts some of your weight to lower on the bike. It's not much of a change but can help. This can help with managing the center-of-gravity...

    Seriously disturbed Motorcycle Psychologist needs tech help !!!

    Here's one of the threads on this forum... I think I'll go pour a wee dram of scotch to toast to your good lick on this. https://www.r18forums.com/threads/another-navigation-question.1971/#post-28412

    Seriously disturbed Motorcycle Psychologist needs tech help !!!

    Anymore, technology sucks! I'm in NW PA and have my Samsung Android connected and tooling along on my '22 TC, most of the time. It does drop out (lose connectivity) perhaps 5% of the time. I used my phone, connected to the TC, to navigate to the far eastern shore of Maine and to the balmy...

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    I, too, am glad the fix is coming. I occasionally use reverse to make some situations easier, usually in tight spots with limited maneuvering room. BUT (to change the discussion a bit) I do wish the reverse was geared a bit lower. I find the reverse speed is a bit too fast for comfort and ease...

    Bummer... that you're not in the States, I mean! Good luck, that should quickly sell.

    Brand and tire life on the R18

    I did extensive research when replacing my Battlecruise H50's at 6k miles. I also was very disappointed in the low mileage. I've found that, for me, the Battlecruise is the best tire out there right now. When a better tire is available, I'll certainly look into it as I'd like to get more mileage...

    Modifying for Tall Riders: A Comfort Guide

    Huh, me too! At 5'10" and a 30" inseam, I don't think I qualify, either! In all serious, this is a great thread and I suggest it should be pinned.
