Yeah. Ok. Too bad you were only able to lower the gauge cluster exactly as I did and not the headlamp too, as is pictured. Maybe you’re waiting for some, um, inspiration?
 
I already have the lowering of the lamp in production;) and a small fairing with a hidden handle for GPS Zumo XT ;) all +20 details in the photo are waiting for their turn on the production list. I can't do it all at once
 
I thought you would keep the originals
The Kellermann Bullet are nice indicators
I did the same positioning of the turn ones on my Indian Scout
 

I will install BL 2000 chrome at the end of the steering wheel to get rid of the originals that do not match the design of the classic motorcycle line​

not today but yesterday.
minor changes to the fuel tank area:
1. tank pouch
2. Replace the logo with your own antiqued ones
3. lowering the tacho by 10mm
4. tank protection padsIMG_7813.jpegIMG_7817.jpegIMG_7811.jpeg

I'm in contact with AdMore Lighting, working on getting their great Lightbar operating on the R18. We've already done some tests and they're now working on new firmware that will make the R18 and the Lightbar get along. In the mean time, I've removed the stock license plate LED lamp and accompanying plastic mount so the Lightbar fits nicely. The AdMore Lioghtbar comes with a built-in license plate lamp. And the license plate mounts to the Lightbar bracket, with a clean black frame for beautification.

And, thanks to Enzo5000 who let us know that there is an OEM BMW horn that is a direct replacement for the stock horn, my R18 now has a louder, deeper tone horn. It only took three days, from the date I ordered it, for the new horn to arrive. It took about 5 minutes to install it.

Walzwerk has one for beaucoup bucks. Make it reasonable, and you'll have plenty orders
 
The bike now, over after 3 months on the lift, machining parts and sound testing different muffler and baffle combinations and multiple iterations of seat pan construction.
600 mile oil change completed, used "Flintstone Mode III, Barney Iteration V" Oil. Can be found on Caveazon Prime for 6 bones a half skin.
Road ready and highway tested.
Cruises at 110mph(177kph) slick as Owlshit.
Sounds like the low rumble of a sleeping T-Rex.
May the Farce be with you.
