    Tank for 2023 Anniversary model

    Im not sure what the trade in value is on the 100 yr editions. I have one too and have no idea what they are worth, haven't seen one for sale but have never really looked. That process of chrome and paint is very expensive and I think BMW pioneered it. I was told the whole tank is chromed and...

    My $23,000 Boat Anchor thanks BMW

    I dont pay much attention when someone tells us about a bad dealer but wont name them. What legal ramifications do you mean? Libel? Slander? The truth is an airtight defense against both of those charges. I would want to know who ripped you off so bad so that the rest of us are forwarned and...

    I would talk to the selling dealer and maybe get BMW involved.

    Oh boy...here come the Chinese with their HD clones... 🙄

    Too me the Morgan lost most of its character and appeal moving away from the big twin at the front of the vehicle. I hear they drive kinda crappy but at what? 65K+ ill buy a real car.

    Oh boy...here come the Chinese with their HD clones... 🙄

    I didnt think they looked too bad I guess.... Was hoping for more of a power cruiser, alas, no.

    Maybe a silly question !

    A few of us have posted on this in the past... My brake lever is too high in relation to the peg. Slight, but if I cover the brake my foot is at an uncomfortable angle.

    Battery Side HookUp for Battery Tender

    Hey guy I have battery tenders but my R18 wasnt set up from the dealer to accept a tender/charger. What do I use on the battery side to install to hook the tender to? Thanks

    A 100th Anniversary Limited Edition in south of France

    Actually those look just like the bags they show for R18 100yr model. They're different than the bags for the classic, etc. Maybe the same for the R9T? IDK

    Clutch Concern

    When mine was new when I put the clutch in with the bike in first gear there was a definite clunking noise and I could feel it in the bars and esp through the clutch lever. Never had a bike do that. Went away little by little with passing miles. Felt normal after about 150 miles or so. Bike runs...

    100 YR ADDITION

    That's what my local dealer told me when I rode in on it. I didnt buy from there but when I was shopping they said they were getting 1 allocation and it was presold. They told me thats what the BMW district rep or whatever his title was told them. When I was shopping back in April or whatever, I...

    100 YR ADDITION

    I was told they only brought about 90 of the 100 yr editions to the U.S. Is there any way to find that out? Cycle trader isnt always accurate in their searches and dealers dont always describe the bikes accurately. 48 seems like a lot of bikes left if the imported number was so low to begin with.

    100 YR ADDITION

    Well I already have one, im just saying Im surprised they had one on the floor as of 2 weeks ago. But that particular dealer is shall we say, very aggressive with their dealer fees.

    100 YR ADDITION

    I have one and like it a lot. I was surprised to see RideNow in Scottsdale had one on the floor still. I was going to ask abt cost but didnt bother. They are usually notorious for dealer fees.

    6,000 miles service cost is ridiculous!

    Ah, all good then. :)
