So, I’m curious, are you doing a major custom job on your bike?

Nice shots. I like that headlight surround; gives a nice retro feel.

Bummer, sorry it didn’t help. Hope your local guy is more on the ball.

While my bike was in for its break-in service today I had a talk with the general manager. He said that yes the dealership should be the ones to order the first edition boxes from BMW. He also said he was shocked that BMW corporate wasn’t all over it because they really want to make the R18...

Did you guys reuse the factory bolts/washers/grommets?

You can always try Exotic Car Transport out of Orlando and see if they do bikes. I’ve used them for cars before and they were great. NFI.

As this is my first BMW bike, does Motorrad normally give out loaner bikes in the US?

Thats a bummer. Then again, might be a good way to find which local dealers go above and beyond. This is for the R18 and R18Classic. Probably the same. Might be worth a shot.

There is a part number on the box. Maybe the dealer can order it?

Do you mean Estonia? Being sold by a guy named Vanidz...

Cool pic, where was it taken?

Did you receive it and get a chance to install it yet? (Price is up to $530 now btw)

Thanks. I was wondering if there were a bunch of companies I’d missed.

Where are people getting the aftermarket badges?!

For anyone not familiar with the area, that is a healthy ride from Jax to the Villages for temps in the mid 90s; and every weekend. Easily in the 100s with the heat index. Hats off to you, I’m home in the AC with a beer by mid afternoon!

Thanks. I was thinking of the base Springfield/Vintage and was curious. I think it may be an add on for those. I’ve heard people complaining about the 111s running hot but haven’t had a first hand experience. I just don’t want to go down the heat rabbit hole like I did with the Scout. Zipper...

I’ve used reverse, for real, once so far. And that because it was only SLIGHTLY tougher than usual to walk it back. Of course I live in the flatlands so it isn’t much of an issue. Classic seems to give more bang for the buck than the base. Windscreen, lights, bags, etc.

Off topic; Was the oil cooler standard on the Indian 111 or an accessory? Does she have leg scorching problems like the Scout?

Cool seat, who makes it?

I live in Central Florida and haven’t had an issue yet with heat off the jugs. Occasionally I can feel it getting a little hotter than normal but nothing that makes my legs uncomfortable. Compared to my Scout (which FRIES my right leg at a long light) anything on this bike short of catching fire...
