So is the horn location on classic the same ad pure or might that not matter I wonder. Ty
Also, it is good to know BMW spared no expense on the stock Horn. They did the same on the Tool kits items provided I noticed.
So help my pea sized brain understand this…
On our bike, well at least on the R18 base model, we get a basic rear spring and shock. In shipping mode, my thinking is the shock is compressed to prevent the bike from bouncing up and down while in transit. Using one of the charts in this thread we...
“…I really like my R18C coupled with the sidecar is a hoot for sure…”.
Indeed, there are dealer service charges hidden behind all that shiny chrome they don’t tell us about. A bit sad really though bmw is fine with what they charge. A spin somewhat maybe on an old sayingi about f you have to...
If you want the entire screen tinted would suggest just purchasing a tinted windscreen replacement. Possible places do it, just have not noticed it on bikes if done that way.
No insights regarding Clearview brand screen, never used that brand. My knowledge of airflow is limited though my thinking is as follows.
A dual screen setup is great (example MRA). By design some air comes in from under the first screen then when it hits the inner second screen it creates a...
Does the B allow you to add a backrest…even if it does you may not like that look. If it does and you get one you could add a rear bag like I did. I had one laying around from long time back, it has a pocket that slides over the backrest. Granted it to a dam big bag lol.
A quick ride before sunset with the new screen and over a few manhole covers. Not long enough to know for certain but initial feeling is the screen and lowers are a nice combo and the change from 0 to 10 turns on the rear suspension was of some help. My lower back did not feel a direct zap...
I hear that…was putting the pillow on the tank as it happened lol. I did get the screen to mount in the brackets after speaking with MadStad though there are various concerns I have with tilt and range of movement. I emailed MadStad to share my concerns though it may not be until later in...
So I picked up a MadStad screen. Had taken the bike there and they had already made the screen per my order, in case I wanted it. Had told them I wanted to drop by prior to make it to confirm height and tint. Anyway, it seems a good height and liked the light tint (first grade of tint). Came...
My Rose colored glasses are making me love my R18FE though then again I have a 2019 goldwing for touring. If it was my only ride I could see Jumping ship from the R18FE to a Bagger or TC. Just changed my rear shock from what appeared to be shipping mode to 6 turns (220lbs presently). Will now...
You might want to try consignment at a bmw dealer. Another forum member did that after not getting a buyer for his bike and he got good $ from the dealer when it sold. Had not thought to suggest that to the forum member so good he thought to give it a try. Just a thought…
Cyclewerks in Barrington IL offered good pricing. Just account for the cost to ship the bike (they use a good shipping guy & son that transports purchased bikes). Though I still need to confirm…make DOUBLE SURE, if you buy from them, that they change the rear shock from ‘shipping mode’ to...
