Hi Ekkasa. I hope you're fine !

I'm Pascal from France.
I've question about the footrest you fit on the crashbar. The crashbar looks like Wunderlich.

- What about the footrest ? From MOTEA ? Could you let me know the reference ?
- Is the position comfortable for riding ?

I ride with R18 Classic and I ordered Craftride crashbar (diameter 38 mm, in black color) on Motea.
Thanks in advance for you reply.

Just got our 2023 B back from David and Ruth Hanigan , first Gravity Blue they did !

Thanks for the add!

Suspension Turns = W*0.091-16 , where “W” is your weight (in lbs) with all gear plus don't forget to add 25 lbs of fuel. From 6 to 8 turns made a big difference for me, will try 9. Came from the dealer with 6 turns, which is the minimum.

To increase the spring preload, turn the hexagon head clockwise
To lower the spring preload, turn the hexagon head counterclockwise

Are these the floor boards you have on your bike: Kuryakyn Riot Mini Black Floorboards - 3597, and which adapter fits the R18? Thanks

Let's go!

R18Holan, did you have your parts powder coated by a shop and what type of slip ons did you get? I have a FE and wanted to cut down on some of the chrome and have a louder exhaust.

Hi, want to add auxiliary lights to 2021 FE Pure . Realise you need harness p/n 61111665148. I have cruise control as std. on mine. Don’t have the “light symbol” under the MODE ( switch). Is there any way to know if this switch block will work without having to spend $644 on new switch block for auxiliary lights? Thanks, Brett.

Pete,
how much for the rear seat? turns out i already have the taller seat on mine, thanks. of course being local i can pick up.

I share your wish to make it more sporty, lighter, etc.!
Which forks are on your bike?
Where to get the custom cnc triple clamp?
Is the vid posted yet for the intake pipes / can we buy a set from your friend?

Good luck with your sale. I had the same thing and tried to sell mine with only 800+ mlies for about 2 months with little interest. My last asking price was 12,900 last October. I finally took it to a local high-end independent dealer on consignment and in less than a week it was sold. I don't know what he did with it but I got a check for $16k. Maybe something to consider.

Switched over to the TC last October and I’m really happy with that choice. It’s built for long rides and entertainment. If I could afford to have a FE with fishtails I would keep one of each, they are just two completely different bikes with two different experiences. For now, I’ll just enjoy the heck out of my TC!

Hi back at 'ya, also from Maryland. What part?

Orlando here.

Hey Adam, appreciate your video’s on Youtube, especially as a new R18B owner

Just installed ape hangers on my R18 classic, had to remove tank to do so, once all put back together and lines lengthened and bled I can't start the engine. It started initially and ran for about a minute but won't start now, anyone got any pointers ?
