    R18 100 Years - BMW Accessories

    I think you can occasionally remove the rear seat and put it back on without scratching the real fender. Just look at the contact points under the seat and see if some soft thin felt pads should go ON THE SEAT not the fender so you don't damage the fender. If your old lady is careful, you'll...

    Thanks. I only ride in sport mode, looking for more torque, so if that's not happening or really noticeable I won't bother. Right now this is my only bike. Not planning on buying another for now.

    Just sent Bren Tune his E- mail, I'll give it one more shot... BT, I have contacted you before and just gotten an-mail to refer to your site. The site does not answer any questions. Do you have a dyno sheet of the before and after the download of your map showing the HP and torque curves...

    I also contacted them twice months apart and got nothing but a reference to their site via e-mail which obviously I already had....I don't recall if the site shows the standard dyno HP and Torque curve and after the Bren Tune install? I also had some questions about the install of their map...

    Anyone have any performance mods? I swapped out my air filter to the one some of you guys recommended with better air flow. I'm thinking of the Bren tune re map??? And I guess that's it??

    Tank for 2023 Anniversary model

    I'm not sure what the Anniversary Model resale is either...probably not that good frankly as the world economy is NOT good and it effects spending habits of people that can afford to waste money. Economies are part psychological, which is why a stock can trade 200 times actual value while...

    Tank for 2023 Anniversary model

    This particular tank has the chrome sides, white stripes, and black metallic paint. I just got lucky in a way that the insurance adjuster agreed that since the bike was brand new 800 miles, and that the bike had a special paint scheme, no body shop could get it like factory. My previous...

    Tank for 2023 Anniversary model

    Yeah, I know....and I know the market pretty much on bikes and cars. For a few grand more I can buy a nice used bike. It's a psychological thing....Covid 19 closed the entire industry I'm in for a good two years, and it's only recovered about 25-30%. This kicked my ass financially and...

    Tank for 2023 Anniversary model

    The ding is the result of a freak event. Someone threw something while the bike was parked outside a swanky restaurant. It put the small ding in the tank. I ran it by my insurance co. By some miracle they decided to replace the tank since the bike is brand new. I really lucked out with this...

    Tank for 2023 Anniversary model

    I thought the same thing. Apparently the paint scheme on this tank warrants the price??? To have it absolutely perfect like the day I bought the bike, I would need a tank from the factory..... I thought $2000 would be a lot....but the tank reinstalled with labor is like $6600...completely...

    Tank for 2023 Anniversary model

    Thanks, yes I know. But for starters the tank has to come off the bike.....I filed an insurance claim and am paying the deductible, so I'm getting a new tank... But thanks.

    Tank for 2023 Anniversary model

    I have a very tiny ding on the tank of my 23 Anniversary model. It's not bad and can probably be worked out once the tank is off the bike. Otherwise the tank is perfect. I'm replacing the entire tank rather than fixing it....because I'm partially insane and keep my bikes in showroom condition...

    OK, but should I do it or leave it? The airbox/ filter....
