What exactly is your bike doing, or not doing; can you provide additional information?????

I'd keep it, even if you have an itch that you need to scratch; for me, I like the new HD Street Glide CVO St or Road Glide CVO St even though my R18 is mechanically and feature wise is a more robust platform.

The Reverse module is a pretty basic module; are you sure you have a bad Reverse module and not a loose connection? What exactly is your bike doing, or not doing; can you provide additional information?

The GS Adventure was an amazing bike; I often miss it, but still love the R18 B and it's creature features that I wanted in my next bike (Navigation+Infotainment System, Wind Protection and flat feet on the ground at a stop light)... Sold the GS Adventure w/ almost 97,000 miles on the odometer...

I replaced my tires at 11,340 miles; I now have 18,240 miles on the odometer, which works out to almost 7,000 miles (6,942 miles) on the METZLERS - which hardly show any wear at this point. I'm hopeful I'll get between 12,000 - 14,000 miles out of the METZLERS.. more to follow a year or so...

I like the idea of a sacrificial component to prevent damage to the underside of the chrome finish on the Floorboards. Our Department Highway Wheel Units (HD) bike's floorboards are worn down to a point of being razor sharp..

I struggle with this topic; the Model B and TC have an adaptive strut, which makes upgrade replacements very limited. It looks like Wibers offers a product, which includes a plug in module that suppress error codes related to the adaptive strut functionality. I will most likely consider this...

Tire Recommendations is always good info; I'm still really happy with the CruiseTec tires that I mounted last year, high confidence and low road noise. Downside: I'm wearing down the Floorboard nubs through the twisties ... Below images show the two brands/models side-by-side:

That is one good looking "horse"... I absolutely love that color; I often dream of trading in my black first edition Model B for a dragon fire red Model B, with the dark smoked chrome exhaust... Enough about me... Congratulations on the new ride and welcome to the forum, there a ton of...

I'm guessing that you have too much oil in the engine case; also, it sounds like you are missing the plug in the condensation hose. Make sure you have a high quality oil and that it isn't frothing within the engine case.

I use the Reverse after each ride, where I back it up into my garage... However, I don't recall ever using it while out riding, old parking habits are hard to break..

I actually don't know... I should had experimented more with the R18 Bobber Project and the Model B when I had both of them simultaneously.. Perhaps visit a BMW dealership and see if they will let you try fitting your side panels on a ROCTANE or visa-versa.. My dealership was always very cool...

I might adopt the annual engine oil/air-filter/bevel gear fluid change schedule; I have a shit ton of the BMW G3 bottles (2 cases worth) that I bought from a forum members last year - it was too good of a deal to pass up. It's definitely an easy task... I didn't change the transmission fluid...

The Reverse function in itself, draws enough attention on its own; I don't think anyone needs the "beep-beep-beep" audible sound, to add additional attention.. Don't get me started on the idea of a BACK-UP light... WTF...!!!

Even if Mike did work at a construction site, I'm still going with "NO"; Mike has simply run out of shit to put on his bike...

NOPE.. 👎🏻

Maybe consider order parts for the ROCTANE, they offer a black-out version, including the dark smoked chrome pieces.

I think the UK folks are the only ones saying that... 😂
