Hi all, I am parting with a few bits I have left from my old R18B. I have the 719 option seat which is almost new, possibly under 1k miles as I bought a plain one to have it reupholstered etc. There are no marks or scuffs and the electrical wiring is as good as new. Selling it for £300.00 plus...

Hi all, I am parting with a few bits I have left from my old R18B. I have the welcome box with the copper plated roundels I used to have on my B. Except the roundels, which I bolted on my bike and the book, which I read, everything else is unused. I paid around £150.00 for the box but will offer...

Well my friends, I never thought this day would come but as some of you have gathered, I am a sucker for the K bikes and today I made the decision to pull the trigger on a spanking brand new option 719 K1600B. This sadly means I am selling my beloved B, which has served me very very well, never...

Is it me or does anyone else have noticed that the Motorrad App annoyingly changes the distance values from mls to kms? It does not allows me to change it back to mls , instead I have to log off and log back to make the changes. Was never like this, it just started happening for the last 3 to 4...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cpv4zkepmzlo.amp This one is a good event attracting riders from all over the UK and neighbouring European countries. I am in if any local members want to join me along the way.

The other day I noticed that my rear speakers have gone quiet. They work as I can feel the vibrations but the volume is minimal. Under the settings I use Balanced as the sound preference. Any ideas in terms of root cause? Thank you all.

I am aware that we don’t have many London based members in this forum, but as a road user in London on a daily basis, the below petition affects me big time, therefore I would like to ask all UK members to kindly consider signing this petition and see if it gets passed. Cheers all...

I found this and although is not a R18, the similarities are quite a few. Very knowledgeable young fella and pretty good videos and explanations. https://m.youtube.com/@WorkshopRebuild

Well folks, my R18B has been nothing but pleasure since I bought it on March 2023, however, tonight my headlight failed as I was leaving work therefore I had to ride home like bat out of hell before the night descending upon me. Will take it to the shop tomorrow as the warranty will expire in...

Well, I just got pictures of my new seat. I wanted something discreet and comfortable, so I went for a dark grey leather to match the metallic graphite paint on the bike, grey/blueish Alcantara for the rider’s side with a similar stitching pattern to the 719 option and medical gel for added...

I came across this. Ok, so it is not a motorcycle engine but the principle is almost the same.

Has anyone with a B or TC noticed the update done to Motorrad Connected? They have greatly improved the maps and added an experience hub section with a few events , mainly in Spain, Italy and a couple in Germany. When you receive the update, just ensure you log out and back again for the...

Hi everyone, Maybe was there before but I have only started noticing this in the last couple of weeks. When I switch the bike off, after 45 seconds or so the bike makes a chirp or a clacking noise if you like, that seems to come from the engine side, sort of the middle part of it. Is this...

Hi gang. I am not sure if my bike display is ok but I thought that after the break in service, the 6000 mls was the one to follow. I have done the break in service last year and on spring this year the bike was asking for a service. If I recall correctly, it was around 3000mls at the time. I...

Last year, when I wanted to retire my trusted M109R, I had my eyes on the K1600B but to be honest I felt intimidated by its size so I went for the R18B which I absolutely love. Nevertheless, I had that itch that needed to be scratched , so today I went to my local dealership and road tested the...

Mate, I could not upload the picture on a PM so here it goes. Sorry for the delay.

Had a lovely day with friends today the Harpenden 4th rally today to raise money for the SSAFA, a charity dedicated to help army personnel, veterans and their families. Lots of bikes and friendly atmosphere. A nice AC/DC tribute band was also playing today and they did a few hours continuously.👍...

Ok, so I just parked on my usual spot and I was locking the bike and faffing about when this sweet voice asked me “How do you like the bike?” I immediately turned around and there was a late 40s girl wearing a full leather piece. I thought, oh a fellow biker but from the opposite side. We got...

Amazing day today. Sun was out and so were the bikes.

Folks, my Bagger has been doing something unusual lately. 1- After I refuel, the fuel gauge takes like 3 minutes to register the amount of fuel in the tank. Coincidentally, the Motorrad app says my fuel tank is at 100% even if it is 3/4 empty. Sent an email to the app developer 2 weeks ago in...
