    Bren Tuners: Let us hear what you think!

    As far as I am aware, it’s diagnostic abilities might be limited. I think you can only think of this as a way of tuning the vehicle across all three modes and then being able to remove that tune within a matter of minutes. Should there be developments in the tune, you will already have the tool...

    UK Motorcycle Insurance

    3000 miles is what they base the quote on. If you think you might do more, they need to be aware. It is not hard and fast as far as I am aware however, if you did significantly more miles, it would possibly have a detrimental effect on your cover. Just done done checking and I can get the quote...

    So...the R18 bagger

    I can’t see why you would want the two although there are one or two on here who have two or three R18’s. Ride the bagger and if it delivers what you are looking for, exchange the Classic.

    UK Motorcycle Insurance

    My insurer LV will no longer be offering Motorcycle Insurance going forward. My current policy expires September. Any particular recommendations anyone? Currently paying £220.00 fully comp for 3000 miles. When I called around last year, quote was similar from the likes of Bikesure, Bennett’s, etc.

    Is there a BMW shop manual out for our bikes yet? Or, an electronic version?

    There is a knowledgeable site on YouTube showing that very chore. An example below

    Brentune completed!

    No need to send anything away. Take a look elsewhere on this forum for instructions on the BrenTune. It really does improve the bike but in a subtle manner.

    Who has The Galaxy Dust Metallic paint on their Bike is it really worth the extra money !!!! Lets see pictures

    I had the denim black (Matt) on my Harley. Following ten years of ownership there was not a mark on it. I would expect similar from BMW.

    Closer reach handle bars

    Hi Tony They arrived the day before I went offshore. Home again in a couple of weeks. Will report further then. Quality wise, they certainly look the part.

    This is my bike with a far more comfortable seat

    Most comfortable seat

    The DayTripper from Mustang has proved a big improvement whilst keeping similar lines / silhouette to the original.

    Closer reach handle bars

    I bought the same on EBay. These arrived very quickly and appear to be of a very good quality. No instructions but not rocket science provided fitted and torqued correctly. The seller was very helpful and polite. Postage was quick and the price considerably better than the competition.

    BMW (Mustang) Seat options breakdown

    Not put a great many miles on mine either as yet but definitely superior to original.

    BMW (Mustang) Seat options breakdown

    Are the Weekender and Day Tripper similar in looks? Is the weekender similar to the DayTripper?

    What malevolent sadist designed the Pure R18 FE seat?!?

    Swapped out for the Day Rider which makes a big difference. Thinking of having my original seat modified with Gell pads etc. Not sure why I would bother as I do really like the Day Rider.
