    Exhaust tip

    I'm pretty sure that both exhaust cans need to be removed in order to service the rear brake, especially if replacing the disc which will require the removal of the rear wheel... Go to the BMW Motorrad site: Service/Manuals/Installation Instructions and download the wheel set instructions for...

    FS: LMC Black Billet Aluminum Oil Cooler

    The LMC oil cooler really cleans up the look for anyone who is customizing their R18, and it appeared to work well in my case; however, I can't justify another purchase to install on my Model B... The Bagger and TC are more touring bikes in my view, I want more functionality and reliability...

    Fob voltage ?

    There's a bunch of counterfeit and or batteries for sale that have exceeded the shelf life date; I've continued to use the DURACELL brand, no issues what's so ever.. Also, stores you Key FOB some physical distance between the bike; this will break the wireless connection between the bike & FOB...

    What did you do to your R18 today?

    I finally got around to installing the TC Mini-LED front directionals on my Model B; I'm going for a cleaner look on my B, removed the Engine Protection Bar and the TC lower leg wind protection fairing.. now that the temperature is dropping, I might re-install.. The directionals are plenty...

    MAD Exhaust Healtech Servo Eliminators but still Engine Warning Light

    Sounds like you have it all figured out... Me personally, I installed the Jekyll and Hyde exhaust back in 2022 and I removed the entire servo module about 1.5 years ago; I installed two ServoBuddy modules and have zero errors... I was merely suggesting a possible cheaper alternative as a...

    MAD Exhaust Healtech Servo Eliminators but still Engine Warning Light

    Maybe try the Servo Buddy modules in order to suppress the associated error codes with the missing servo module? Do you have the servo module or was it removed by the previous owner; if you still have it, maybe try installing it to restore the bike back to stock minus the exhaust silencers?

    Emblem for Left Side Cover

    As a point of reference, I've seen where folks had affixed an Apple Air tag in that same location; maybe, you can get the dimensions of an Air Tag..?

    Any recent reviews or updates on Metzeler Cruisetec tires?

    I was skeptical when a BMW technician first installed Metzler tires on my 2008 GS Adventure some years back, mostly because I've never heard of the Metzler brand; I've come to really like the quality of the brand and my past experiences with Metzler is what nudged me in their direction when it...

    Any recent reviews or updates on Metzeler Cruisetec tires?

    I purchased and mounted the Metzler CruiseTec blackwall tires with the stock size and tire pressure on my Model B, just prior to a long five day ride; I noticed immediately, lower road noise... I'm still happy with the purchase, their overall roadworthiness and performance..

    R 18 Bagger: Auxiliary LED Running Headlights

    I installed the OEM Transcontinental Auxiliary Lights on my Model B: There's pretty detailed postings on the forum with part numbers and such; forum folks, were successful in programming the Mode Button to activate the Auxiliary Lights as well via their GS-911. Search "Auxiliary"
