    Stiff rear suspension

    Hi all, Yes, I also find the stock rear way over firm, have backed the preload completely off, but it is still hard as, and I am around 85kgs with gear, so yes considering a Wilbers with the +20

    How To Has Anyone Installed A Tachometer On R18 Classic?

    Hi all, first post, Yes I have one on my new 2023 R18 Pure, Manhattan matt, It is slightly slower than the digital display, but looks good, and adds character to the dash Imo, maybe worth knowing, the company in Germany that made these has closed down, they still have a home page at there web...
