    Emblem for Left Side Cover

    Not glued in place yet. Will be removing the cover as soon as the maintenance plug arrives and I will be fitting my “Dashcam” system and wiring in my usb charger. Will try and get a better pic and better aligned before gluing in place.

    What I’ve learnt so far…

    The single largest cause of injuries in older males is that they believe they are still young! As another of our community over 60, which I would assume are the large majority, I chose the R18 exactly for the more relaxed riding style. I occasionally forget I am no longer riding the K1200 and...

    The rig is local to where I am staying so have reached out and asked if I can come and check it out. If I get the chance will take more photos of the mountings for you if he agrees. Anything specific you would like to see?

    The R18 sidecar thread

    Looking at listings while on vacation here in Australia came across the following Rig for sale in Australia. I am not sure the price is in line with the listings for low mileage solo bikes. Surprised at how low the prices are here in Australia.

    My 10cts

    Even more interesting it was the last of the carburetor models. And I did a custom exhaust with custom air filter, basically removed the plastic box and made a mesh screen and used it to hold scrubbing pads in place, then custom tune with rejetted carbs. Couldn’t buy new jets so custom made my...

    Do you store your R18 on a Trickle Charger

    Would depend on the minimum temperature you experience. If below freezing I would charge to 80% then store inside. I still have the original so just on the optimate as above. we got to -11 centigrade the other night so happy to keep it on trickle. I made the mistake with a Lifepo4 leaving it...
