Excellent work, TV! Very clean.

SUNUVAGUN. It may be that my partial hearing loss keeps me from hearing the relay. Thanks, HF. But now I'm wondering why the OEM would program a delay such that power shuts down on the accessory power source after killing the ignition.

I rode it today, but YESTERDAY I rode it to the Cherokee Removal Memorial Park. A sad part of American history, but one that should be remembered so such things never happen again.

It's a common situation with modern machines. After powering down, systems stay in power for a while, as residual capacitance is exhausted.

Needless to say, my even more expensive replacement rocker covers didn't have an extra adhesive patch. They should have came with Preparation H, to help ease the pain of the procurement process. Still... they look GREAT.

Today I checked out my First Edition out andf it's got the M8 screw-attached lever end. I'm going to look into making a replacement part that's shorter. I think that it bears mentioning that my lever end was installed such that the inserted portion was a VERY tight fit. After removing the...

I'm glad that the issue surfaced while it was stationary and (I presume) at home, where it was easiest to correct.

YUCK! I suppose that if a rider had a fetish for unlimited chrome it might sell. IMHO an oil cooler is useful, but not something to draw attention to.

The R9T engine is a GREAT engine, but it won't have the panache of an R18 derived powerplant. I'm betting that they won't use that engine. BUT will an R12, made from the R18 platform, be long stroke/high torque or shorter stroke/higher revving? We know that the R18 could have had a significantly...

WOW! And the Earles fork.... AWESOME!!!!

You can de-chrome it plenty. That's not specifically what I was planning on doing, but it's what has happened to mine, as I worked to make it look as much as possible like a classic BMW circa 1960s. I got the replacement rocker covers, which replaces all of the chrome of the OEM parts and the...

I rode my R18 all around, but stopped by the Cherokee Removal Memorial Park.

It'll be interesting to learn how many of the R18s attributes carry over to the smaller model. Obviously it has to be priced cheaper than the R18 because it will have a smaller engine. But if it has all of the R18s goodies, it will cost just as much to produce, because engine displacement has...

I power my Tomtom Rider off of a switched accessories connector under the left side cover. https://www.r18forums.com/threads/electrical-connectors.142/#post-1578 https://www.r18forums.com/threads/phone-mount-ram-mount-how-you-guy-installed-it.171/#post-1664...

While I prefer a BOOK to digital data, I'll take what I can get.

A lot of us are wondering the same thing. It's a waiting game.

Yes sir. That's the home of FermiLab. I used to stay at a hotel in Naperville, when I was there. Rt. 66 Indian is in Elmhurst. Did you buy at Motoworks or Cycle Werks?

You're gonna love it! In the mean time, if you're in the area around Rt. 66 Indian, say hi for me. My job used to send me to FermiLab on occasion and I sat in on one of their monthly IMRG meetings and found you Chicagoans to be great folks!

OOPS! Upon closer inspection I see that you're right, Gilles. It musta been an optical contusion... the front fender looked bigger when I first looked at the custom R18 in post #1. Thankx for pulling my head outta my arse.
