I still have an issue that existed before the tune whereby if I don't put enough rev's on the bike when taking off from the lights or a junction, the bike seems to rev and then drop revs on its own. I have to rev reasonably strongly if I want a smooth take off from stationary. Likewise, when...

Hi Wolle Can you please tell me what the two 14mm holes on the 5mm back plate are for? Do these perhaps engage with the exhaust hangers. Difficult to see on your otherwise excellent photographs.

Just has a quote here in UK 12 months from £357.00 (without recovery) and £100.00 excess to £450.00 ish with recovery and no excess. Will probably purchase as concerned about a few things that have happened to other forum members ie. Reverse gear failing, oil seals, etc, all of which would make...

This is the first time I have heard of Wiki workshop. What a great resource. Thanks for bringing it to our attention

Excellent. Thank you. Any idea if I can add sub titles to this? Not sure if it might be possible via YouTube or not.

When you say “Off the ground”, I have the Eazy riser strong arm which will lift the rear around 4” off the ground. Do you think that might be enough for a rear wheel removal?

I have the BrenTune but not that interested in messing with my original Classic style exhaust. Having seen how easy it is to remove the exhausts I might be interested in the short Race Pace exhausts, (Or whatever their correct name might be).

This was the product I used, which uses a polymer technology as opposed to foam type products. The Ride on looks like it might also be polymer based. https://www.puncturesafe.com/index.php

Just wondering how high I have to lift rear of motorcycle in order to actually remove the wheel.

Removed the stock exhausts on my R18 C in preparation for removal of rear wheel. Literally took 10 - 15 mins to remove both. Made me realise how easy it will be to remove for a thorough clean, etc.

Very enjoyable read and written very well. Thank you.

Yes I remember that. I used to own a R1200C which had its wheels changed out. I loved the bike but the vibration going through the handlebars caused me to suffer from vibration white finger. Took several days for the discomfort to wear off. That was following a 200 mile ride. Not that far really.

I'm with you there. If it's something which I struggle to justify, a few whiskeys and the internet normally end up with a purchase. 😃

You have lost me there. Wrong about what?

Can't say that £2000 + on wheels is really appealing to me.

Hi all Following a trip to France on my R18 Classic for the D Day celebrations, whilst doing 75 MPH, I became aware of a change in the bikes behaviour I pulled over to check. Sure enough I had picked up a screw in the rear tyre. Fortunately, before leaving home I had added a product called...

Great write up, many thanks to you.

I am seeing the same on my R18 Classic 2022. I will contact the dealer this week and see what the situation is. I also have some bubbling on the lower steering yoke and will point that out also. Did you get yours sorted?

How much might they be?

The tune is very subtle but at the same time, a definite improvement. Sounds good too.
