    Reverse

    Got my fix done in SoCal last week. The reverse speed is the same as it was previously for me.

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    Yeah, my dealer is actually one of the very few that support BT-Moto. Their service manager does track rides and races on his Bren tuned RR.

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    I just got my R18 TC back from getting the reverse gear fixed. The fix included a ECU update, and there was also a TFT software update which put me at version 014_015_020. The ECU update did not allow me to restore my existing Bren Tune. However I talked to my dealer and they’ll reimburse me...

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    If the reverse fix modifies the ECU, then yes, your Bren map will need to be updated at Bren Tuning’s $200 price. Once you get your bike back, try and reapply the modified tune again. If it fails, you then need the new map done.

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    Are you referring to the Bren Tune? If so, yes the original map will be stored in the handheld.

    Thoughts on the Chigee/Carpuride products?

    Unfortunately we had to cancel the trip. Planning a weekend trip in a couple weeks and will try it out then. I got the Carpuride W603D mainly for the front and rear cameras, but the 6” screen for CarPlay is a nice bonus.

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    Finally got my TC scheduled for the reverse fix this next Monday. Can’t wait, as I use it all the time to back into my garage. Also used it quite a bit in parking spaces.

    Yes. Search here and you’ll find a few.

    Thoughts on the Chigee/Carpuride products?

    Offline maps were never an issue. My point with using the Android tablet was to have MRA running natively, without the restrictions CarPlay has.

    Thoughts on the Chigee/Carpuride products?

    So I’ve found CarPlay limited when it comes to navigation apps like inRoute and MRA Next. Developers are limited to using the template that Apple provides. And with the Connected App’s navigation in its current (bad) state, and not wanting to spend big bucks on a Garmin XT or XT2, I opted to get...

    Does anyone have both the Transcontinental (or R18B) and K1600?

    The highway is not quite the same as the twisties, the TC is not a nimble bike there.

    Does anyone have both the Transcontinental (or R18B) and K1600?

    Had a 2018 GA, sold that due to the instability and after test riding a TC with the wife, she said that was the bike she wanted, as she rides with me about 50% and said the TC had the most comfortable pillion of all the bikes I’ve had. Plus she has back issues, and the TC’s low seat height...

    Welcome! Where in SoCal?

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

    Unless the bike’s ECU software has been updated, you should be able to reapply the tune from the handheld tuner without issue. If the ECU has been updated, then a new tune from BT Moto will have to be generated at a cost of $200. I think BMW should have to pay for this as the reverse issue is...

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

    I had my BT done long before the reverse recall. Before bringing my bike in for the recall, I removed the tune and put the bike back to stock. I guess I’ll find out if I need the tune updated when I get the bike back.

    Recall? On all models with Reverse

    Almost all of the BMW accessories have about doubled.

    Yeah, I had to pay about $120 above the $1000.
