Anyone’s riding style precludes its use? Tired of straight and true steering? I’ll take that pesky steering damper off your hands. I broke mine after attach a sidecar to my Classic.

I have a two piece 719 from my Classic; I upgrade to the Weekender. Looks great but after one hour it feels like I’m sitting on a 2x4. If interested we can talk $$.

Took the Ural tub to Texas Sidecar Company for the attachment. They did some modifications to make the Ural rig fit the R18. They did a good job and I highly recommend them.

I guess I could, but it was set up by a professional with many years of experience. This is the best it can get according to him. The Ural is a very heavy sidecar being all steel and aluminum. Straight line isn't bad. Additional steering dampening is needed. Waiting on an extra dampener.

Yes, it does fly on fast, tight right turns. It's very manageable with some practice. The steering effort depends on the road. Bumpy roads with a distinct crown pull to the right quite a bit requiring constant correction which can get tiresome after a few hours. Smooth roads are pleasant but...

Patience, lots of patience. I sold an S1000rr for a good price but it took 4 months and I had to filter out tons of scammers and BS offers. It will sell at your price. Try ebay and facebook marketplace as well. Good luck.

Decide to afix a Ural tub to my classic. Fun and convenient for groceries although it is a workout steering it around. The dog likes it as well.

I’ll second Motea. Installed mine last year and love it, and it looks the part as well. Also fits with after market seats and the quick release is a plus. FYI… if you’re keeping the bags attached get the adapter kits as well. I didn’t and struggled getting aftermarket bolts and spacers to make...

Just got a weekender seat, thought the day rider was too narrow and the cross-country too puffy. It’s better than the 719 seat and looks good on the bike. Changes the riding position however so while I’m breaking it in I’m trying to get used to the new more forward position. Anyone else feel this?

Just did my 600 mile service at $550. They just did engine oil and final drive, which I can do cheaper, but wanted them to do the first service in case something goes wrong it’s easier for the warranty. I’ll do my own fluids and filter and let the dealer do the valves.

I have a 2020 Pure and the bike is vastly different from the R nine T but in a good way. It's a bit more relaxed riding position, much more torque, street presence with a less sporty ride and lower cornering clearance. Tried taking some corners at normal my normal speeds and quickly ground the...

Thanks very much. Would you happen to have a white beard and wear a red suit?

Not yet, still riding around with holes at the top of the forks. $129 seems high for what may not be the right part.

Guess it RSD after all. 😢

Just did a goggle search and found a few BMW dealerships selling them.

Cool, thanks. $129 seems like a lot for simple aluminum caps. RSD of course but still. 😉

No 3d printer but you sell them? I'll buy a set.

i removed the windshield from my R18 Classic and there are recesses in the upper forks (see pic) that would look better covered. Saw some upper fork caps from BMW for $129. Anyone find a cheaper solution?

There was a post in R18 group on facebook selling a brown Day-rider seat from Bruce John. Price was $150 for new, never used seat. Had a voice call with him and the voice didn't match his profile pic. Also, the facebook profile was created recently with only two pics, no comments and only he...

Does the pillion seat fit on the bike with the RDL? Loved my RDL on my K16gt and would love one on the R18.
