Ask your local BMW dealer, I believe it's treated as an upgrade to the bike as it's an option and not factory installed. It's supposed to be a software update but I imagine they'd charge you for that.
Welcome from the Lower Mainland, Tilley!
I made a very similar mistake but traded my base R18 for a 1250RS, now I'm back into the fold with a Bagger, what an improvement over the base model!
I saw that AliExpress one on Amazon from a few different "brands" but they all look the exact same. I feel the Givi Maxia is an interesting alternative, there's a rack from Amazon that fits the Givi plate but it also looks very AliExpress-ish...
I’m definitely considering it, didn’t want to pull the plug on getting the tool to reset the service reminders + a jack/lift for the bike yet. Will do it once the next service comes up.
Love my R18 Pure but BMW's service costs would make me go to a Japanese brand, I've considered going to an FJR 1300 but every time I leave the house with my R18, I change my mind. The smile factor of this bike is too big to ignore

This weekend I had an upholstery designer reshape the stock seat and insert some gel padding on it. It vastly improved the stock seat for a fraction of the cost of a new, better seat - I went for a 1h30min ride with the custom seat with zero fatigue or weird pressure points, it even made me...
That's Galaxy Dust, I fell in love with this bike the first time I saw it at the dealership, the only downside is that now I spend way more time at the garage than what I should just staring at the bike :LOL:
Hi, everyone!
This weekend I've joined the R18 family with this new to me 2022 R18 Pure. Of course I had to hit the mountain roads right after taking delivery, the bike is a beauty and is so much fun to ride! This is my second BMW, traded off an F800 GT as I realized I prefer the riding...
