No unfortunately. US federal law via the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act prohibits a manufacturer such as BMW from tying their factory warranty to the consumer’s use of the manufacturer’s repair services or parts. This is commonly known as the “right to repair.” Stated differently a manufacturer...

Thanks for sharing. This is great to hear. Can you please provide details on the sealant and the tape that you used?

This assertion regarding warranties being voided is simply not correct. At least one person on the site has had major warranty work with a side car installed. Other data points from my dealer back this up as well. Useful to have actual, fact and experience-based information so others can make...

5,000 miles now with the Hannigan/r18 classic set up. Plenty of time on interstates, in the curves and around town. It’s a fantastic combo. Not inexpensive, but worth it if you really want to use this type of rig. Definitely get the camber control which makes all the difference.

I’m interested in the solo Corbin for the Classic when you want to let it go.

Very well said. Same logic as to why I bought two R18s. Because today I can, but tomorrow…

A belated thank you for this by the way. I used it and the BMW MOA engine oil/final drive/transmission fluid change videos on YouTube to do the first service on my R18s. Pretty straightforward process actually with all of the torque values and fluid volumes available. Magnusson Moss Warranty...

Well done Sir! Please continue the quest and let us know the outcome. Like you I much prefer the classic sans windscreen and would like to plug the holes so looking forward to see how you solve our problem!

Absolutely made for a sidecar!

Just did the third 600+ mile trip on the stock R18 C seat and actually like it just fine.

Just picked this up from Hannigan Motorsports on Tuesday. R18 c has already relayed what a great pleasure Dave and Ruth Ann Hannigan are to work with. This was the best time I’ve had handing over a large bucket of cash in quite a while. First time on a side car, but I made it the 630 miles...

What a great description, yet I keep throwing my credit card at them! High quality stuff though.

Same here. Thanks Clive. Huge help.
