This is what the R 18 is about…

Pretty nice review of the R 18 Classic.

Enjoy.

Enjoy.

Yesterday I rode 170.8 miles on a tank. I rode 14 miles of the indicated reserve and upon refill the bike took 3.4 gallons. Temperature was 80º to 87ª and speed was highway speeds ranging from 70 to 85 mph

Today I learned that the cruise control on the R 18 won't engage past 98 mph or so.

Just received, not yet installed. I've been looking hard for an economical (rear) passenger footrests / footpegs to replace the stock and "way too classic" ones, and although I like the design of the Wunderlich lowered footpegs offering, I cannot get me to pull the trigger on these even though I...

Took some side by side pictures as it may help someone looking to get an idea. Passenger seat first as it is the most dramatic (in a good way) upgrade.

A different video, pretty nice.

Great weekend and BMW has a major presence. https://www.bmwmotorcycles.com/en/experience/events/BMW-Motorrad-Days-Americas-2024.html

Yay! Got some Heritage line representation as my R 18 Classic made the last page feature photo of BMW Rider's Association On The Level magazine.

Not bad.

Hello to all: You may have read both of my 7Jurock reviews here on the Modifications forum. This came about as I was curious about the actual difference in performance between sizes and flip vs no flips. I was offered to review two models and to give them back my honest opinion on them, which I...

Went for a short ride, again, on I-95 to try another 7Jurock windshield This one is 0.5” taller than stock at 16” with flip on top, clear and thicker material. I have already used a shorter 14” (but wider) version, you may see my impressions here...

"The BMW R 18 models had flown under my radar, and I suspect some American riders may have had the same experience. Given my experience riding the Roctane in Germany and Austria, combined with many miles in the United States on the 2023 BMW R 18 Classic, I am excited about reacquainting myself...

"If you want a Harley, by all means get a Harley. It’d suck going with something other than what your heart is telling you to do. Just go for it. But if you think that there’s more negatives than positives for you as a cruiser rider if you hitched your life to the Milwaukee Bandwagon, then the R...

Went for a short ride on I-95 to try my new 7Jurock windshield and coffee This one is 14” height, 1.5” shorter than stock R 18 Classic but 2” wider, flip on top, medium tint and thicker material. I’m 5’6” and the flip and the width made all the difference for me as I experienced substantial wind...

BMW R 18 Cruiser Motorcycle Is Big, Beautiful, But Must Battle Harley https://www.autoweek.com/news/a45147587/bmw-r-18-cruiser-motorcycle-battles-harley-drive-review/

Pretty much on point. Sure, I can compare the BMW R 18 Classic and the Harley-Davidson Heritage Classic 114 for you. These are two of the most popular cruiser motorcycles with touring capabilities, and they have some similarities and differences in their features, performance, and style...
