A few people have been scammed on the site, Only use paypal to pay for items for sale by other members. If they will not use paypal, its likely a scam NEVER SEND E-TRANSFERS OF ANY KIND.
I'm thinking about getting one of the knock-off screens from Ebay for my base R18. But, I don't see an easy way to remove those caps on the forks so you can install the bracket. How do you do that?!
Thanks.
Holy cow, BMW has a set, in black, on sale for only $432.25.

I have the left hand chrome cylinder head cover for sale from my first edition bike. About a year ago, my bike came off the stand in a wet parking lot and toppled over. Shockingly enough, the only damage was a ding to the cylinder head cover and nothing else. I just replaced the cover with a new...
I reset my service indicator with Motoscan and the LX tool but my service wrench is still on. The date and time on the bike are correct and the service mileage and date are well in the future. I read that someone suggested BMW has a software update that fixes this. However, I called the dealer...
I seem to be having a problem receiving notifications in watched threads. It used to work and I confirmed the boxes are checked for email in preferences. Anyone else notice this? (No, nothing in spam or junkmail)
The Configuration Tool isn't quite ready for prime time yet but at least you can see what is coming down the line. (For instance, you can't add the new white paint color and wire wheels and black fork tubes as an accessory option even though they show as standard) I only took a look at the R18...
So I came home from a 45 minute ride and parked the bike in the garage and went in to change and grab a drink. 20 minutes later I head back out to the garage and see a large yellow glob on the right side of the oil cooler shroud. I look up and there is a thin line of grease and large glob of...
I’ve seen a couple of threads by people looking for fishtails. My bike came from the dealer with the V&H pipes installed and I wanted the original pipes as well. (If I ever sell it they may go back on). So I asked my local dealer to keep me in mind if they pulled the FT pipes off another bike...
When I picked up the R18 I ordered the factory accessory bags at the same time. I was told they wouldn’t be in until the end of July but I was pleasantly surprised when they showed up this week. (Yes, BMW actually BEAT a time estimate!).
The bag frames were easy to install. The hardest part...
OK this may be a stupid newbie question but I can’t seem to find the temperature display on the bike. I went ahead and reset the display to see if it was hidden and it wasn’t. I then went into “units” where you’re supposed to be able to set Celsius or Fahrenheit and there is no entry for it...
My Father’s Day present from the wife!
Picked her up Friday afternoon. A ‘21 “pure” with the First Edition package, Premium package, Select package, passenger seating, and cruise control. The dealer apparently won a “lottery” for an accessorized bike from the factory. (Documentation seems to...
Hello.
I’m picking up a R18 FE on Friday. Talking with service it looks like the Classic bag mounts will not fit on a base R18. Has anyone had luck doing this? Thanks in advance.
