    What Bike Would You Trade Your R18 for?

    I also have an R1250RT ('22 model) so not pressed to do anything soon. However, whenever I make a trade I will get either the Indian Pursuit Elite or a K1600B GA. That's it for me.

    Thinking about a R18 Transcontinental

    Scott, I notice the disconnects most often when on trips. That's when I need the maps/navigation the most. When I am out riding on a Saturday afternoon, I am always on familiar roads and can't say that I have noticed a place that consistently causes a disconnection. I will try to pay...

    Thinking about a R18 Transcontinental

    I use an Android phone (Google Pixel 7). I believe I have the optimal settings for the phone to remain connected indefinitely. Incidentally, when I don't need the map/navigation, it often works flawlessly without a disconnection. I just can't necessarily count on it when I need it.

    Thinking about a R18 Transcontinental

    The connection issues I have are basically random drops. Most of the time, the app launches and a connection is established with no problems. Then after riding down the road with everything working as it should, the connection will drop. Much of the time, drops are quickly reconnected with no...

    Thinking about a R18 Transcontinental

    I love my TC. However, there are a couple of things that are somewhat bothersome to me. First, there is no small storage on the bike. No place to put gloves or other small things like you have on competitive models. Additionally, the factory and Option 719 seats did nothing for me. I ended...

    Pulling the trigger !!!

    Jim, Like you, I came from an '18 Goldwing. I also had a '14 RT so I decided to go with a R18TC and a new R1250RT. Day by day, I decide based on how I feel. If I feel a little sporty, the RT gets the nod, otherwise, the R18TC. I recently purchased a Corbin seat for it (my butt required it)...

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

    Thanks for sharing. I also have an R18TC in Galaxy Dust. I gave up on the factory seat and ordered the Option 719 seat. It is no better than the standard seat so I ordered a Corbin. It should arrive next week and I am excited to see how much better it will be. I have about 6K on my bike and...

    Honda Goldwing

    I had and sold a 2018 Goldwing manual and now have a 2022 R18TC (and a 2022 R1250RT). Anyway, I much prefer the R18TC to the Goldwing. In three short years, the Goldwing became really boring. It is smooth and bulletproof but absolutely boring. Also, I can't believe how quickly the dash...
