My apology, I’ve sent many photos on this forum but it is not letting me do it now. You can call me with questions at 812-483-3913. BTW Pro Race still has not sent my full titanium exhaust. It has been close to a month now. Regards, Tony
Nice bike. I also have the 100th anniversary. It’s on display at BMW Melbourne until I can ride it in July. But I own it. I’ve never ridden one. Are you happy with yours?

Thanks and Congrats!!! so far so good before winter came last year.. I can't wait to ride it again, hopefully soon when the snow melts.
Hello from Sydney Australia.
First time post. I have been watching and reading for a while and have found the forum to be very helpful. I have recently retired and traded my 2018 HD FLHTK Ultra Limited in on a new 2022 R18TC, was a run out sale fully optioned 719 package. Have just had 10K service & new tyres fitted for an upcoming trip across to Western Australia, 9000kms return.
What a wonderful bike. I sell Beemers, bought the 100 year anniversary for my Christmas present to myself, and am smitten. Enjoy your new ride brother!

Thanks.

About 750 thus far. No complaints, lots of complements. Loving the bike, the two person seat - not so much.
Went to a solo saddle today.
Hi there,
I saw your posts on the forum - I have a question about Akrapovic Exhaust.

I wonder if drilling out the rear perforated mesh (I marked these places with a red arrow) will help?
Will drilling out these places make the sound better?
What do you think about it?

Best regards
Krzysztof (from Poland)

Hi Scott , I am going to install the light bar on my Bagger . Is there a special harness you need to order ?( Adapter lead LED PN: 61 11 1692240) do you have a video of your light bar install , I have watched all of your R18B videos but could not find it .

I didn't video the auxiliary light installation; I do have a PDF with the parts list. Also, Robert Harris also posted a good document, showing the parts and steps he took to install the Auxiliary Lights.

Thanks Scot really appreciate your videos and your feedback .
I sold my Indian and bought the BMW R18 FE and never looked back. It handles like a BMW. It is much more agile in the twisties and weighs approx 70 lbs. less. Low speed "parking lot" manuevers are about the same, but you get used to it.

What does the BMW do better than the Indian. Appreciate your input
According to my owners manual I should have a setting that shows the Oil temperature in the instrument cluster. Mine does not show it. Have an appointement with the dealer next week. Anybody else had this problem?
Landing Gear- Are you happy with your Landing Gear? Any Issues?
Do the wheels support you well and in the vertical position?...or is there lean?

Do you think it would work on a K1600 B?

Thanks
Bob

Hello from a rainy cold Franklin Mass., I am located just south of the great city of Boston! I just picked up my brand new R18b and love it! I had to make some adjustment to the shift levers to accommodate my big feet. I also am just getting used to the weight of her compared to my HD FLHTCI bagger, the R18 seems heavier but a lower center of gravity, it corners so much nicer than the Harley

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.
