Nice. Just out of curiosity, did you try and see if you could use the battery’s + and - terminals? Do you know if you’re able to get to the battery terminals without having to remove the battery?
Just ordered the Thunderbox - thanks for the tip on this.
Very happy with the Bren Tune on my TC. When taking the bike to the dealer I always flash back to the stock tune. If there were no changes to the ECU, I’ll then re-flash back to the Bren Tune. If there were ECU changes, Bren charges a reasonable amount to re-program.
Do a search in the forums...
Thanks for the link. Do you have this installed on your B? If so, what was involved in connecting the + and - terminals to the battery? I ask because I took the seat off and the battery terminals didn't seem easy to get to.
I bought my 2023 R18 Transcontinental with 0% financing from BMW. So maybe check into that - I’m not sure if the 0% financing is over now, but I don’t think so.
Can’t help you with maintenance, as I prefer my dealer to do it and I’m at that age where my back hurts if bending over too much.
I use the Kern-Stabi X518 along with this jack:

Raises my TC up perfectly and it’s very stable.
I bought one for my TC, but then I found you practically need to raise the engine to install it. Install on a standard R18 should be easier. So it’s been sitting in my closet. It’s for sale if anyone’s interested.
Well I found the handlebar mount options not what I wanted, so I mounted a RAM ball to the TC’s top “shelf”.
I would’ve liked to have it center in front of the antenna, but it wasn’t possible to secure it there. But this works just as well, and it’s very secure.
I find the Connected App’s GPS/navigation lacking on my TC. I’m curious if anyone’s mounted a Garmin or such on their B or TC, and if so how did you do it?
Not interested in using a phone for navigation, but a real GPS.
After adjusting the heel-toe shifter on my TC, I’ve gotten quite comfortable with it. And I haven’t experienced any heat coming from the big jugs even in 100 degree heat, but then I was wearing boots.
