Until someone comes up with a more diminutive replacement I'm going to leave mine alone. Putting lipstick on a pig never helps. All it does is make you notice the pig.

Thanks R2K. Very kind of you to say that.

^^^Excellent post^^^ Thanks for the info regarding UN ECE Regulation 39.

You can't accurately measure velocity with GPS unless your position can be accurately determined. The amount of time it takes to move from one spot to the next is how velocity is computed. Velocity and position are not individual components. They're both products of the same data. If one is...

Found the link I was looking for right here on the forum. I added the 4% part. Don't know how that got implanted in my brain except that when I did the math for the error on my bike it turned out to be 4%. https://www.r18forums.com/threads/speedometer-mysteries-from-europe.1463/ In thinking...

GPS is quite accurate most of the time and it's generally more reliable than speedometers.

I've read your posts about your LRS journey more than once. In fact I bought the 18" solely on your recommendation. I was leaning towards the 16" because I'm not a fan of big windshields for aesthetic reasons. I was going to reach out to you via PM but I decided you already posted everything I...

Dude, don't shoot the messenger. I'm justing regurgitating what I remember reading somewhere. I never claimed it was fact. Okay, since you asked I am going to tell you that the car may be wrong. GPS data is inaccurate in certain circumstances. Sometimes for innocuous reasons and sometimes...

I read somewhere that BMW intentionally has their speedos read 4% fast. IIRC something about EU laws are different from USA laws and the speedos cannot have errors that would have the rider going faster than they thought they were. Therefore BMW errs on the side of caution and their speedos read...

I ordered an LRS 18" windshield less than a week ago and it showed up in the mail yesterday. It was late in the day but I was able to get it on the bike and get a quick ride. Fitment was perfect and the quality seems excellent. I saw no flaws or blemishes of any kind and everything lined up...

Nope. Everything you need comes with the backrest. It takes a bit of coordination to get all the nuts started. Highly recommend a second set of hands.

Thanks.

A long time ago in a galaxy far far away I used to live in junior enlisted base housing with my wife and daughter. I was riding a Sportster at the time and there wasn't any covered parking. The housing was a four unit building and we lived in the end unit. There was only one step up to the front...

Will the floorboards fit the rear?

While we're on the topic of the Bren Tune, I've already installed the tune but I just ordered a DNA Stage 2 kit. I believe the ECU will self adjust to accommodate the increased airflow. Is that correct or do I need to reach out to BT Moto for an updated tune? Thanks... I also ordered an 18" LRS...

$2200 for floorboards!?! Yikes. Glad mine came with the bike.

AeroHead because it looks like a radial aircraft engine.

What? I'm not seeing a problem.

A 20% decrease in gas mileage sounds more like a different riding style than fuel/air mixture. Is it possible you're riding a bit more aggressive with the new tune?

I was bored last night and I wasted a couple of hours watching YouTube videos and reading R18 reviews. I watched/read a few from when the bike first came out and I watched/read a few from 2022. The early ones were all pretty much the same. They begrudgingly appreciated the quality and uniqueness...
