I”ve not seen this posted, but I stumbled upon this the other day.
Wiki workshop repair manual for the BMW R18 – repair maintenance service workshop manual
I’ll install the aux driving lights onto my bagger as soon as the parts arrive, which seems to be about a four-week lead time on the items that need to come from Germany. I want the lights to be amber, so do you have any experience tinting these aux lights? If so, can you share what you used? Or...
I’ve had that happen on my 2017 R1200RT. But it’s a 2017 so I just figured the battries were getting low. I replaced both… BTW, something like the GS911 scan tool will tell you what’s going on and in the case of my RT, it said something like sensor interferience.
I rode the bike for about four hours between yesterday and today, and I like the bars. I have them, so my arms are basically straight out with a slight bend in the elbow, and it just feels perfect. What I also noticed is that it allows you to counter-steer easier, and it just feels like a more...

As I’m putting the front back together after installing the Helibar tour commander handle bars, I noticed that the two hottom holes that I mention in my video are the lower guide pin holes for the bat fairing.
They shoved grommets behind the light? I can’t see anything that is broken, it seems to me to be an issue of those lower mounting grommets being too loose or like they are two small for their mounting holes.
