    Service Warning Light at 10 Miles In

    My free advice is wait until you've time to waste to try this.

    Not to be argumentative but regardless of forum monthly costs - even if there were none, there is still the cost of the equipment, the cost of communicating, and the cost of time to consider. My bike costs me way more than what I pay for my gas each month.

    Service Warning Light at 10 Miles In

    The dealer needs to reset it for you not just "look"

    R18 as only bike?

    ANY bike can be your do-it-all ride. The "why" any of us ride and own a bike is as varied as there are motorcycles. In my opinion consensus shouldn't drive your decision...there's not much logical about even riding motorcycles - that's the point. If it is what you want and you can swing the...

    Oil Level !??

    PhilBret it's not that I'm not interested to let you know...I just never check it cold!!! When I bought the bike, I assumed the dealer had checked such things and I just followed the manual when checking it during break-in. When I did my first service, right before I warmed the motor before I...

    Oil Level !??

    You may have just "gilded the lily" I offered him earlier! But more precise information such as yours surely doesn't hurt the matter! :)

    How would you describe the R18?

    Whoah!!! Keyboard warriors! This is a motorcycle forum! Keep it up and somebody's gonna break a finger nail!

    Oil Level !??

    You might be just overthinking this. LOL!! The manual gives you good basic info...check the oil level when the bike is warm (and upright - off the side stand - of course). When in this state (warm and upright) the "perfect" level is dead center of the circle. Once you've completed your oil...

    Exhaust Systems

    Definitely sounds deeper. Are there removable "db killers" in the muffler ends?

    Essential R18 Aftermarket Solutions

    I've another bike on the bench at the moment and (hopefully) won't have the R18 back on the bench for a while (knock on wood) to effect a decent picture. But that said, take a look at the attached file. You'll see where I drew an arrow that points to a place just to the rear of the "eye" that...

    What did you do to your R18 today?

    And if you're rolling you will receive a much less succinct type of alert! heheheh

    Torque Specifications - Still Searching

    I'm not able to disagree with your comment...because I only buy OEM brands when it comes to service items. I've found it doesn't cost that much more and brand loyalty can help tremendously with "good will" when you have an out of warranty issue and need an assist from the manufacturer. As for...

    How would you describe the R18?

    I prefer the Freddy Kruger Effect…when he said, “Welcome to Prime Time, Bitch!!” Heheheheh

    Motoscan

    Should of but then it wouldn’t feel like an effin’ harley as you so aptly put it! LOL They should’ve named the Modes “Shake, Rattle, and Roll” to make it even more “American” (and more accurate). Maybe if they ever decide to sell us accessories as promised they will include a “smooth it out”...
