I'm sure if you rode both bikes switching back and forth you would notice a 4 ft. lb. difference in torque but I doubt it would be a big difference.

I would think that a 2022 R18B with a Brentune would have better performance than a 2025+ model. The 2025+ reportedly has 4 ft lbs. more torque and the horsepower remains the same as previous years. The Brentune re-flash on the dyno indicates the same 4 ft lb increase in torque but also shows...

Yes I did - It is not hard to remove them. Here is a video you should watch that was made by Adam Chandler that shows how he converted his R18b to a transcontinental. This shows how he installed the rack.

What windscreen are you selling?

Happy Thanksgiving to you and all as well.

I took a ride today - getting used to my new R18B - I rode up the Salinas Valley Foothills on River Road that meanders through the rolling hills covered in vineyards - I followed the Arroyo Seco Road up into the canyon and took a turn onto Carmel Valley Road. Carmel Valley Roads leads you to...
