    Brand and tire life on the R18

    I've gone through 2 sets of Bridgestone Battlecruise tires and went with Michelin Commander III GT's for the 3rd. The Bridgestones were original and lasted amazingly well. The surprise was that the front tire went while the rear had 1/4 life left, both times. I got 22,000Kms on the first and...

    New Windshield for R-18b/t

    I put the Klockwerks windscreen on my TC yesterday. A quick 200km ride today and I have results. The line of sight is great. I don't have the windshield top right in my eyes.

    Question USB port

    You need a special 6" C-C cable, preferably with a 90deg turn in one end. I use the charger all the time. The only problem is I leave my phone in the bike, Every Time I get off.

    Navigation Map Mode not working

    Mapping would not work for me for external reasons. I had a VPN running and that interfered with the WiFi connection. When I turned he VPN off, I could connect and use the Nav. Bluetooth always worked for music. I did have an issue when the dealer did an upgrade to the bike software. They...
