    I am extremely satisfied with my Hattech exhaust. Have you checked them out? Great quality and sound.

    Any R18 Exhaust Flapper Valve issues?

    I did a lot of business with those guys in the earliest days of VROC. Great bunch, great products!

    What did you do to your R18 today?

    Lovin’ that inner sump plug? Even with the modified plug and 1/4” locking drive it is one messy affair!

    Mustang Seats - Weekender

    I love my Corbin solo seat. Have owned several…good quality product. Delivery time is seasonal but usually 2 to 4 weeks.

    Engine fault light

    I’d have found that fact on the first look into that “rainy” problem that TV had hehehe!! I’d still fire it up in low light and mist the hell out of it and see if I could make it go into limp mode and isolate the problem before I drove 5 hours to a dealer again…if I replicated the fault then I...

    Any R18 Exhaust Flapper Valve issues?

    “David” on this forum already worked this out. Few weeks ago. No codes and runs better per him.

    From Merriam-Webster’s, customize: “To build, fit, or alter according to individual specifications.” I think these days when you alter any motorcycle from its OEM configuration it is fair to use the transitive verb “customize” to describe what you just did by altering it. There is a difference...

    Engine fault light

    When you get a means to clear fault codes (remember alternatives to GS911 already exist and can be found in this forum), get you and your bike comfortable in a fairly dark area, start it, and with a spray bottle filled with water lightly move the throttle back and forth with one hand while...

    Anger on Facebook over Accessories

    Fair enough. Then BMW should be honest with us and say just what you said, if that is the case. I will get by and continue on paths already taken. I am resourceful enough without them. Their non-performance in “doing what they promised” is ONLY important to me because I believed them and handed...

    Anger on Facebook over Accessories

    So you missed my point? BMW new subsequent models have many of the “things” promised for the R18 FE…plenty available for production but…and how does any of that prevent them from selling DVD shop service manuals, which are already available in digital format in dealerships?

    Anger on Facebook over Accessories

    I saw that too. I’ve been very vocal as well…whenever I’ve had opportunity, and have also been “hit” in this forum for “whining” about it, thinking it’s a “conspiracy”, not grasping that it’s a global issue of lack of supplies, that all the things promised were “baubles” poor poor BMW. But the...

    Looks good Black Dog! Not a cookie cutter knock-off either. You captured the look!

    Engine fault light

    Have you tried drying it out (or letting it dry out) and starting it again yet?

    Engine fault light

    And I was serious about the leaf blower or any device that can move a lot of air...water can find its way into many things and air can be your friend. Compressed air is a little extreme so if you try that route dial it down considerably...just enough to move water droplets out of places they...

    Could be something your trusty leaf blower could sort out...
