I jumped from a 2008 R1200 GSA to a R18 B...
I haven't really looked back until I read this thread, it was a great bike; however, I wanted something more along the lines of a HD Street or Road Glide.. flat feet on the ground, music, navigation, wind protection, headed seat, grips and...
Did you have to replaced the sensors and or the batteries to the sensors; what's the fix..? I'm assuming this can be done during the time when new tires get replaced..?
How long are these batteries supposed to last?

I agree with the look...
I had the original Wunderlich protection bars on my Bagger, that was making contact with the frame; I swapped them out for the Jekyll & Hyde exhaust system through the Wunderlich folks...
I can look at my Model B later today; perhaps it's a guide for the ABS sensor cabling ...?
What about holding the wheels on the KERN-STABI X518; maybe check, the four wheels on the lift at the axle?
