A 100th Anniversary Limited Edition in south of France

[jeanchris]

Hello,

Jean-Christophe, 53, living in south of France (Provence region).
I have owned a lot of different bikes in about 30 years of motorcycling (ow mainly European bikes, from Triumph and BMW mainly... but Ducati and even Cagiva too !) and it is my very first cruiser.... and god ! I really like it !

I send a big hello to every one here.

Here are some pictures of my lovely R18.

Welcome, beautiful bike. Are you going to change or add anything to it?

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new bike. Really nice and clean and I love the pipes. Do they sound meatier than stock?

Salut Jean Christophe.
C'est la selle d'origine ou tu as fait rajouter le dessus façon sellier ?

Hello R2K. Thanks. No, I will keep it as it is : perfect. If I add something to it ... it will be only more kilometers.

It sound like the sport exhaust because in fact it is the same than the black akrapovic in the accessories catalog... but finished in chrome. It sound good and not too loud, especially in ROCK mode.

Bonjour Gérard. C'est la selle d'origine de cette Edition Limitée. C'est une version avec des couleurs différentes de la selle option 719.

It looks great. I’m not a fan of the luggage to be honest, but the rest of the bike is beautiful.

Beautiful. I like the luggage.

Welcome JeanChris

love the luggage.

 

[jeanchris]

love the luggage.

This luggage came from the BMW Motorrad accessories catalog. In fact, it is the model for the Nine-T 100th Anniversary Edition but it feet perfectly the R18 with the BMW support (made by SW-Motech) and looks much less "like a squerred box" than the model dedicated for the R18. I use only one luggage, on the right of the bike, it is enough for me & the trips I do.

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
