    Battery Tenders

    NOCO chargers. They have been making chargers since 1914. American company. Their products are the best IMHO. I've taken off five or six times and forgot to unplug. I don't realize I didn't unplug until the NOCOn bounces up and slaps me on my helmet. I've gove four miles and the NOCO still...

    Freedom Performance Installation?

    My Freedom Performance install was on my 2021 FE. It went better than good. the heat shields are clamped so I had a little wiggle room. I don't know what's different with thr R18B. I got the 41?2" FP. Perfect increase in sound. Better, but not too loud. Good luck man.

    Help removing stripped bolt

    All methods above will work. I think I've used them all. Don't forget to try Freeze Off. to cool the bold, (shrink it), when you get somethinghalfway solid in there. Always the last resort is to weld another hex head bolt on the stripped bold. That works 99.999% of the time. The location...

    Helmet comms: what works, or doesn't, with BMW Motorrad Connected?

    Always used Sena but when I needed to upgrade I tried Cardo. Disappointed with the Cardo. Will re-upgrade after Christmas with latest Sena system, hopefully at after-Christmas sale prices. The Cardos worked but volume was very poor. I even upgraded speakers< ($100), and not enough...

    ADD HEEL SHIFT LEVER TO R18 FIRST EDITION

    Has anyone found a heel shift lever that can be added on to an R18 First Edition, (K34), at a somewhat reasonable price? After 26 bikes, (the last 6were HDs), every mod seems to be a labor. The BMW dealers don't show the part for the R18 FE, but there is a lever for the B, TC, etc., but three...
