Hello from Central Texas

[Manhattan Matte]

Traded in my 2016 GSA for a good deal on a 2023 R18. I've been a BMW owner and rider for 40 years, but this cruiser is quite a departure for me. I've been doing my diligent homework on the forum. trying to catch up on all the relevant information. Added a Wunderlich fairing, BMW saddlebags and engine bars, and have received a Horning lift in preparation for the first service. Here's a photo:

Welcome to the forum, @Manhattan Matte! That's quite a change going from a GSA to an R18 - hope you're loving it!

Thanks for the welcome.! I've been busy sorting out my R18, using helpful information from the forum. I've added auxiliary Denali D7 lights, a B6 brake light, and a Soundbomb Mini using a Hex EZ Can controller (specified for the K1600). Wired my phone and GPS, installed a gel seat insert, added a BMW magnetic tank bag, and now just waiting on a set of Wunderlich lowered foot pegs to give a little more leg room. About ready to do the 600 mile break-in service. And, finally, introduced the R18 to its garage mate - my 2021 R9T Pure.
