    New color's for 2023

    This list missed the Manhattan Metallic Matte --which is on my 2023 Classic. Is there a place I can find out how many were made in this color?

    What did you do to your R18 today?

    Thanks... The only thing I really dislike about the few mud guards avail for the R18's (except the DK Design one) is they all have a slight curve outward at the bottom end. Nor do I like the 2 ridges ... picky picky picky I know. :ROFLMAO: I am going to buy one anyway and see if I can trim the...

    What did you do to your R18 today?

    I'll probably go with the same one you got. The DK Design one is $140. with shipping --for a piece of plastic and the seller is quite the ornery ass grump. He had an issue with me asking about the logo and wanting to see it in detail. 4 or 5 emails later he wouldn't send a simple detail...

    Question TANK Machine Power Flow Kit (Aftermarket Air Intake)

    Even if it were 1/2 that I wouldn't pay that for plastic... MAYBE $600. TOPS if it were cast alum. You'd think they do a focus group or something to define a price point how to sell the most.

    Nice! Where's you get that one? I'm thinking of this one - DK Design. https://www.dkdesign-global.com/product-page/dkdesign-bmw-r18-front-mudguard-extension

    What did you do to your R18 today?

    The blue/white logo looks weird because my colors are olive green, black and brown. So I matched the tank logos in the same old school bronze ones as on the engines covers. Then the fender one kept annoying me so I fabricated this :) Way better. It's the details.

    From a forum side, I can't see any reason why not, although someone with more seniority than I might want to chime in. And you might want to ask @BT Moto first to see if he'd be open to it again too.

    Gear oil - Recommended 70W/80 vs 75W/90

    Just wanted to check in on this thread and find any feedback since it was posted on guys that've used the 75W-90 oil in the transmission on R18's

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    What THAT sucks. How does a transmission "give up" on a nearly brand new bike? 😖 I hope that's not a new recall in the making.

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    Yea.. I get that they have to pay their guy to do the remap, again. But it does make me wonder --when the first initial Bren tune remap came back to me in just over an hour. How difficult can it be? The reply to that would be... I guess one's paying for the expertise --for what's nice to have...

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    I installed the bt-moto upgrade. Now I have to overwrite that with the orig. stock version, in order to take it in the the reverse fix. So was the original stock version stored in the handheld, (as well well as the upgrade?) Then pay bt-moto AGAIN $200. if I understand correctly) to remap the...

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    Ok.. so I am about to take my R18 in for the reverse fix --I don't recall and not at my bike-- is the stock version saved in my handheld and I just simply pick that version in the process?

    I got to try Rock mode. Wow. BIG diff. Im never going back to Roll. 🤣

    What mode were you in? I noticed the sharper response in 1, 2, 3 when in Roll --nothing really in 4th and beyond. I haven't tried Rock mode yet. But rock is a bit much for me. Here's what they say is improved: Full-Time Closed Loop (FTCL) Fueling Adjustments Removed RPM "Soft" Limiter...

    From what I have understood from the post above https://www.r18forums.com/threads/bt-moto-ecu-flash-group-buy-and-discount.727/post-52089 The reverse fix will require BMW updating the ECU. Therefore unless you want muck around do NOT add the BT MOTO tune to your R18 until you had the reverse...

    WARNING Do not add the BT Moto tune until you've had the reverse issue fixed!

    This is important enough to become it's own thread. From what I have understood from the thread https://www.r18forums.com/threads/bt-moto-ecu-flash-group-buy-and-discount.727/post-52089 The reverse fix will require BMW undating the ECU. Therefore unless you want muck around do NOT add the BT...

    Here's the error that happened to me even with the device plugged in. Whereas this was more about connecting to the server to update the MyGenius app, yours may be because it was not detecting a device.

    Yes. It happened with mine. 10 times I tried it. Tech support was very prompt in addressing it. However, it likely will take downloading/installing the remote log in tool called SplashtopSOS.exe (as per recommended by them) and allowing them access to your computer. Took them 2 minutes going...
