    Exhaust Servo

    So thought I'd add my observations here after disconnecting the electrical plugs from the unit that controls the exhaust plates (pic below to show what the plugs look like but they're in front of the REAR wheels - the actual exhaust valves are behind the front wheel). I didn't want to do all...

    Reservoir Replacement

    Why don't you get 1 of the BMW seats made by Mustang that moves you closer? I'm 5'7" and it did the trick for me on my Classic. If you're in the GTA let me know if you wanna see the difference to get an idea.

    R18 Louvered Performance Plates

    I got to thinking about this and why would BMW put an opening under those plates on each side? If the purpose is just to show an "1800 cc" plaque on both sides a simple 2 bolt holes per side would suffice to attach the plates. But, no, they actually left holes there for the aftermarket (or any...

    What did you do to your R18 today?

    For now I just put an oversized nut under each bolt (as someone else did) to lift the stock plate a qtr inch or so until I perhaps order the JLE plates.

    R18 Louvered Performance Plates

    I recall he said he was going to have a large fan blowing at the front of the bike when on the dyno.

    R18 Louvered Performance Plates

    One of the awesome benefits of the boxer layout for sure, less heat than a v-twin under the tank / beside your legs.

    R18 Louvered Performance Plates

    I first went with the BT-Moto tune on stock air filter ... honestly noticed no difference in performance. When I put the DNA stage 2 air filter in is when I felt a difference so I understand your reticence but honestly, once moving, I'd bet hot air is no longer an issue as it's getting sucked...
