This is what I did to my R18 RIDER today... ;-)

Sounds good. Let me measure it. I assume it's 16.4 because it was the stock shield from a '21. Once I get the measurement, I'll be back in touch

I bought my bike in Charlotte, because the dealership in Wilmington wasn't open at the time. They just opened in December. They're an hour from me, as opposed to 4 hours for Charlotte.

I'm coming up on my first break in service for my TC. We have a brand new BMW dealership in Wilmington, NC called BMW Motorcycles of Cape Fear. They told me on the phone the break in service would be $250, including any software / firmware updates on the bike. That sounds eminently reasonable...

Found some metallic logo stickers in a facebook ad. Put one on each hardbag, and one on the top of the front fender.

So far only about 500. When the weather warms up, that will increase.

I would dearly love to hear what it sounds like after all of that!

My friends invited me to go wilderness camping with them this summer. So I made a list of things I'm gonna need... 1. New friends.

I mounted a cup holder on my left handlebar

Yeah! I'm actually in North Myrtle. Riding on Hwy 17 is still an exercise in anal pucker management, but there are nice alternate routes to get to the biker bars we frequent.

Myrtle Beach TC owner here!

Hmm. Never really noticed a glare issue on mine, and I live in an area with 275 days of sunshine each year. Maybe I'm just used to it. After all, I did an entire fuel tank in chrome on my 71 BSA

Haha! :-) Remind me not to post pics of my 71 BSA. It would make you break out into hives.

Made a pedestrian slicer for front fender, copper backing plate for engine nameplate, and highly reflective bmw stickers for the wheel rim. Finally, a phone-sized back on the tank and drink holder on handlebars

North Myrtle Beach here.

Yes! That solved my wind problem immediately. LOVE the wind protection on the TC

$30, shipped to any lower 48 U.S. state address. More elsewhere. Brand new officially licensed BMW Motorrad long sleeve shirt. Black, size Large. I wore it once for about an hour and decided it just didn't look good on me. That's probably because I despise wearing long sleeve shirts...

Has anyone tried these on a TC? It seems to me the leg wind deflectors would be an impediment to using these leg rests.

Current: 2022 R18 TC, 1971 BSA Lightning Past: 2021 R18 Classic FE, R1200RT, K1600GT Future: R1200GS, if I can find a decent one under $10k that doesn't have a million miles on it
