What did you do to your R18 today?

[AV8OR]

Same here. Went to the Bike Shed in London for lunch.

I was in London over Christmas for a month and went to the Bike Shed for a look around. (I did not have a bike, it was home in Canada so was on the bus). Had a great coffee and slightly burnt croissant, served by a nice Irish lass and had a good look around. It is a very cool lifestyle hangout. Your beef sandwich looks very tasty, I'll try that next visit.

Here it is outside at night. Honestly one of the best mod for night riding. People always look, I did it more of a safety thing but it came out cool too.

the under fender lighting is cool idea. Would you share a photo from a night ride, or with the garage lights out or something please?

 

[AV8OR]

what took you so long? waaay cool. I see you have two colours, a blue and a white. I bet you receive a lot of attention in urban traffic at night. Well done.

XUMERX, when I first saw that front fender on your bike I knew I had to have it. Six days after buying from DKCustom in Taiwan it was on my bike. Huge increase in optics.

I added some mesh zipper pouches to the topcase to give me some places to organize and secure small bits, odds and ends that tend to rattle around in there.

Mounted with heavy duty velcro tape so they can easily be removed & reattached when needed.

I didn't know that BMW had the crash bars in black, but I added them yesterday. I think I'm done for now...

Here are the part numbers for the black crash bars. The dealer had them in stock, but on the BMW motorcycle site, it says they are no longer available for purchase.

Took on a mammoth job in swapping out the standard trim fittings for some torx replacements to match every other bolt on the bike.
OCD is a terrible cross to bear
Can’t understand why BMW don’t sell the stuff with matching fittings -it’s not like the trims are cheap

Can you give us the the thread Info? I’m literally at a hardware store as I’m typing.

The cylinder head trim fixings are M6 x 20 as are the ones for the front engine cover trim.
The badge fixings are M4 x 30 countersunk but with a raised head.
Hope this helps.

It only took 6 days for DKcustoms to get my front fender here. Glad I swapped it out.

 

[XUMERX]

It’s a must for this bike
