Sold for $18,600 (not including the additional fees that the buyer paid BaT)

I had the opportunity to meet SKIDWARD face to face, a real gentleman... Also, had an opportunity to meet the BMW employee in charge of technician training; I'm trying to get him to join the forum...

One of the better investments.. hands-down..!!!

This is my rear tire, you can see the manufacturer's indicator is also aligned with the valve stem / TPM sensor:

Do you have the ability to raise your front tire off of the ground, in order to spin it freely? Any chance do you have the KERN-STABI X-518 stand? I found the stock tires to be noisier than the recently mounted Metzler tires; I would hear a "hum" of sorts while riding my Model B, which I...

I have a pretty steep hill in my town, where the speed limit is 25 mph; I have found, that in 3rd gear, my bike pretty much holds at about 30 mph when coasting downhill without needing to touch the brakes. I have removed the servo module and installed the Servo Buddy modules, in order to...

How many miles on your bike? New tires recently mounted or stock tires still on the bike? Maybe an unbalanced front tire; any evidence of missing wheel weights? You can try to see, if the wheel indicators are still visible, and compare the color (DOT) location in reference to the air valve?

Welcome aboard and congratulations...!!! Hook`em Horns ...!!!

If you are already doing your own 6k mile service work; it probably make sense, to invest in something like the GS-911 tool. I personally use the GS-911; however, none of my R18 bikes have the BT mapping, I'd be interested in hearing from other BT forum members that can confirm if the GS-911...

I know...!!! RIGHT...!!! DANG...!!!

Provides back pressure when closed... You may hear some additional pops and such, from remaining fuel within the exhaust system if you decide to eliminate the exhaust servo module; the exhaust flaps will remain in an OPEN state..

WRONG...!!! The GS-911 absolutely resets the service interval light/message, plus so much more in terms of trouble shooting and or modifications adjustments... I'm not sure what Gaylord Poe be smoking...???

A couple of pictures from today's visit at BMW Headquarters in NJ: The 100th Anniversary Edition R18 in the picture is owned by a BMW employee.

Not sure, all things American do have a tendency to be bigger... Basically, a U-Turn on a single residential road; which surprisingly, folks struggle with on these big bikes.. The R18 took some practice and confidence building; what was easy on my GS Adventure, was difficult at first on the R18..

I agree... I rest my foot on the rear brake, 1st gear and use the friction point on the clutch; plus, it helps for me to scoot up in the seat on my Model B - where I'm able to make a U-Turn within two parking spots width wise..

Funny... I dumped my bike earlier this morning, taking it off of the KERN-STABI stand (in the dark, in my garage), so I'm not 100% sure what actually caused this to happened.. I suspect that the rear wheels were not engaged (meaning, the rear wheel of the bike was resting on the ground) when I...

The inheritant cooling functionality of the boxer design is pretty intuitive, especially when compared to an inline V-twin from the perspective of air flow over the cylinder heat sink fins while riding, as well as crawling through traffic. I wish I knew the reason why your bike threw the high...

I would think any skateboard shop would have a huge range of bushings to pick from...? I have a pretty decent skate shop in the adjacent town from me...

Congratulations... and welcome aboard... That Dragon Fire Red looks amazing with the Smoke Dark Chrome Exhaust...

This RE bike caught my eye, while sitting at a traffic light on my way home from work:
