    Scott Semone?

    Was just looking through my inbox and noticed Scott’s name appears as “deleted member 1618” now. He’s a hugely active contributor here, so wondering if he, or anyone in the know, can let us know what happened. Hoping for a check in to know everything’s alright!

    I love this! Where’d you land? Horizontal? Vertical? Please tell me you got out a protractor to set them at some exact degree!

    Bren Tune

    The modes are still there. I’m in Rock mode unless there’s water on the ground, so I don’t have as much to say about the other two modes. But they remain different, I do know that much!

    Adaptive Headlight Recall Update

    I love to hear this! Sounds like real movement!

    Bren Tune

    The price of entry is substantial, for sure. And is it worth it? I guess that depends on what $1000 means to anyone pondering the purchase. I can attest to the silky throttle response. I've never ridden a "fast" bike, but I'm at a good pace before I can even think, and the bike isn't working...

    Headlight Recall

    Which Michigan dealer? Curious who might know a thing or two in my area.

    Headlight Recall

    From what I've read here, dealers can't even replace a broken light with an unbroken unit, as the unit is deemed faulty and is under recall. Sadly, those in your situation are SOL until BMW arrives with the new replacement, which has been rumored to be any point over the summer months.

    Bren Tune

    I did the brentune and the dna kit with the frame. Granted, I didn't have a ton of miles on it stock, but I'm altogether impressed with how the bike runs. Smooth, smooth, smooth. Pulls and keeps pulling. No dead spots, no catchy throttle. And it moves! I wouldn't need any quicker of a bike...

    Was gonna pull the trigger on the trucks, but my floor is so craggy I don't think it'd be helpful for me

    What's the jacket of choice for your R18?

    Just bought this: https://www.ridejohndoe.com/us/jhk7003-hoodie-v2.html https://uniongaragenyc.com/products/john-doe-xtm-hoodie-v2 Gotta say, in the brief two hours of wearing it on the bike, it's the most comfortable I've ever been behind the handlebars. Was close to 80 degrees when I started...

    Removing tank badges

    Exactly the advice I came to drop! Took out the screws, wedged the pick in there and “pop”. Easy enough.

    R18 - Aftermarket ECU options

    There’s also the SLR tune, but far less info or user experiences available online. I did the BT and really like how it irons out the wrinkles of the stock tune. The tune won’t “void” your warranty, but you’d need to reload the stock tune before heading to the shop for work. There’d be no...

    What does the Corbin seat for the TC look like on a B? Answered!

    Just grabbed a Corbin TC seat off a fella on the site that traded on to a different bike. Trying to figure out how you have that BMW plate attached over the seat bracket. Is it just floating? My bracket is too wide to fit into the notch on the cover so I’ve just got the naked bracket going.
