    New R18 Naked

    It looks like it’s just another factory sponsored custom bike.

    And who was that?

    Bren Tune

    It definitely does not have the impact the good DynoJet tunes I have in my Indians. But it does offer subtle improvements in fueling that smoothed out the off idle and midrange rpms. Wether it’s worth the price of admission is your call.

    What did you do to your R18 today?

    LOL, other than my buddy’s custom R18 bobber I have not seen another R18 on the road here in Milwaukee.

    Front turn signals

    I would think powder coating your existing signals would be far less expensive.

    Front turn signals

    Any two wire signals should work. I have Kellerman Atto lights on my bobber and there are no issues.

    Exhaust Flapper Valve Servo/Cables Removal

    Or you can weld up the holes if you remove it completely as I did.

    Bleeding the clutch

    The reason they use mineral oil is that unlike brake fluid it is not hygroscopic so it shouldn’t need to be flushed regularly like brake fluid. I had to replace the fluids when I swapped my handlebars and lines. I can confirm the BMW clutch fluid is blue mineral oil.

    Engine Engraved Plate

    They are CNC machined from billet aluminum and then the background is powder coated.

    Engine Engraved Plate

    I used a gentleman named Klaus who is also on Facebook. I am very happy with his work.

    Removing tank badges

    The stuff I use is citrus based and won’t harm painted surfaces. I’ve been using it for years without a single issue.

    Removing tank badges

    I’ll soak them with Goo Gone before I attempt to remove them.

    Removing tank badges

    I watched that video and I can tell you mine are attached much more securely than what he shows. I attempted using the same nylon pry tool and they didn’t budge.

    My fishtail exhaust project

    You can leave the catalyst and flapper (fin?) by leaving the headpipes intact. The mufflers are a simple removal and you can modify or replace them without any emissions concerns.

    Removing tank badges

    Can anyone tell me how they went about removing the tank badges? Mine seem to be attached pretty securely.
