    R18 B in Dallas

    I know folks are looking for deals and demos are getting scarce. There is a 2021 B in Dallas at European Cycles in Plano listed at 19,999 (under $20k).If this isn't allowed because of the dealer thing, just remove. I get emails from them on sale items and this popped up. Great deal on the Bagger...

    Is Lack of Reverse a Deal Breaker?

    The reverse is a personal preference. It helps me back into my garage over the slight bump from the driveway. I have used it on a few occasions but as others have said, the Classic is still pretty maneuverable. I personally love the black FE Classic. It is (in my mind) such a classic retro...

    Hello from Frisco-Dallas Texas USA

    First off, welcome. This is a great community and these are great bikes. Not for everyone, but great in their own right. I'm in Springtown (north of Ft Worth) and bought my Classic from Cycle Center of Denton. They gave me the best price on the unit and for the first service (600-700 mile) of...

    Lower Wind Deflectors

    Well, $#(!. They sent the wrong mounting kit so now an exchange and another week of waiting. Opened up the mounting kit and looked at the forks. Didn't even think to look at the kit number so.... should you purchase this ki, don't be a knucklehead like me and not check the mounting kit should...

    DGR2022

    Thanks for posting. Always great to see some of these classic bikes. That chopper took me back to high school days. Don't see many of those any more. (thankfully)

    Lower Wind Deflectors

    So the TC lowers can be fitted to other models as long as the OEM engine guards are used?

    Lower Wind Deflectors

    How close are you positioning the deflector to the tank? Mine come in tonight so I'm looking forward to seeing how they perform. Did adjusting the position of the deflector impact your air flow? I also like the headlight visor. Source?

    What did you do to your R18 today?

    Ordered the Memphis Shades fork deflectors. Patiently waiting for their arrival. Ok, not so patiently.

    SOLD

    Im interested but am curious if it changes the riding position vs a OEM seat?

    Windshield

    Hope so. Just ordered a set. I don't get that severe buffeting others have complained about with the standard Classic windshield. I do feel the air flow hit me in the chest coming up from under the windshield. Today was about an hour and a half ride about 70% highway speeds, the other 30% back...

    MadStad R18 (pure) windshield system

    Well, this is disappointing as there will be many options to choose from for a standard style single windshield. What I had hoped from them was something akin to the double stacked windshield that was on my Road Glide that would channel the airflow over the rider. It worked very well once dialed...

    Windshield / Windscreen options?

    I second that....

    R18 Helmet

    Interesting. To compliment the blue accents on the tank roundels, I fitted my gloss black modular Scorpion with a blue chromed visor.

    BMW, I wish.......

    "I straddle all my bikes when refueling to maximize fuel going in and to have consistent tracking across tanks." Never really did this with my Road Glide as it has a bigger tank (6 gal) and a fuel gauge (gasp!) and it was heavy. I just started doing this on my Classic and you're pretty spot on...

    Jay Donavan R18

    Form over function. Looks beautiful. Looks horrible to actually ride.

    Help with setup, please.

    Floorboards on mid controls is a different feel than the floorboards on forward controls (with heel-toe shifting) because of the slight angle of the floorboard on the HDs. Because the BMW floorboards are flat and our feet back, it can create an award feel especially coming off a forward control...

    Price check on aisle 5

    As someone suggested, Cycle Trader has several listed. I didn't see European Cycle in Plano, Tx but that's where I test rode my Classic. Good luck.
