    Thank you BMW

    Probably. Nothing is perfect of course, and worrying about future events that have not really given you a reason to is just senseless paranoia. I just hope this new R18 of mine will be as reliable as my Hondas have been over the many years.

    Thank you BMW

    Hmm...someone just reported *nearly* 100k, trouble free miles..with his BMW ..hence why he bought the 18 over the HD, plus of course, pricing.

    Thank you BMW

    I sincerely doubt you'd get 100k trouble free miles out of a Harley...

    Thank you BMW

    I should be more specific...It's really the overt hype that I dislike. Harley makes cool bikes...no doubt, but my god, give it a rest, they're are plenty of other great bikes out there. I guess it's the monkey see/do paradigm..that makes me laugh. Motorcycling, to me anyway, represented...

    Thank you BMW

    FK HD...overpriced...seller's market...everyone has them....and they're really not that great. They're are tons of near mint used ones for sale under 10k with really low mileage. They all look alike. It's hard to tell a new 30+k Electra Glide apart from a 2005 mint 8k used one. You'd have to be...

    Alloy wheels to replace spoked wheels?

    Yeah, that could work...What kind of tire is on it?

    Alloy wheels to replace spoked wheels?

    R18C with 19" alloy rim? How do you get them?

    Why?

    I put in too much engine oil

    I actually have one I won years ago. I back the bike up on it and if lifts the bike up a couple inches. Helps, but it's still tight. Try to also find a shallow but wide drain pan...Mine is typical for cars...I make a mess everytime..lol

    I put in too much engine oil

    Yes. It's kind of tough. You don't have much room to get a standard drain pan under the bike. But it can be done. If you drain all the oil completely, and replace the oil filter, the bike will take 4 liters of oil. You can buy 4 liter jugs of oil, or 4 one liter jugs. If you practice this...

    MPG dropped after the ECU flash and DNA filter installed.

    It truly does. Especially after the mods as mentioned. It's plenty loud, and very deep and powerful sounding. Plus the exhaust itself is of high quality, double walled construction, and if you Brentune it, the chrome will not blue.

    MPG dropped after the ECU flash and DNA filter installed.

    I need to add that with 6k miles on the bike, Brentuned, DNA #2, in Rock mode I am getting around 42mpg on average. The bike keeps getting better! It fkin HAULS ASS now...The exhaust is deeper, more punctual, and louder. Sounds killer with the STOCK EXHAUST..I love the cold startup...each...

    The Beast Awakens!

    After a very long Winter's nap, I uncovered and fired up the R18C. It hasn't run since late Oct, early Nov of last year. It spent it's down time on a battery tender, and when I hit the starter button, it fired in less then a second...and immediately settled into a nice, prominent idle... No...

    Our 2021 BMW R-18 First Edition has Catastrophic Failure

    From the beginning I've put a block of wood under my sidestand to lessen the lean angle. It sits safely about 5 degrees max from 90 degrees. No smoking issues.
