So Monday at around 1:00 PM the UPS Truck rolls up; and delivers my new Corbin Saddle. Great news; the bad news is I’m in the hospital with pneumonia! Will do an unpack and install video when I get home!

I just got a UPS Package Delivery Notice from Corbin. Assuming no delays in shipment my Gun Fighter Saddle should be here on 2 February! That’s fast. I just ordered it last week!

In the video he says ”They it is going to catastrophic failure” not that it did. On his ”client’s“ request for a new engine - and a counter from BMW “replace the left cylinder” well he’ll man shoot for the moon but settle for the repairs offered. I once had a brand new R1200C. It had...

Um I read it...

The white cotton gloves are meant to be used when switching the tank and engine cover medallions.

I'll contact you after the first of the year. It seems that I am the 5th person to buy an R-18 in the San Antonio.
